I grab a paint roller and dip it into the paint. Then I push it against the wall. Up and down. I keep going until the whole wall is white. "What are you doing here?" I look up. Shit. He found me. "You should be in bed." Elijah says, standing in the doorway. I'm not supposed to be here. Since 2 months I am no longer allowed to do anything on my own, someone always has to be with me. And as you already hear, I am not allowed to do anything After a few days after the scan, so I snuck out of my room. Until now he didn't realize it, but he did now. Unfortunately. Of course I could not leave without the help of the person who was with me, they are Sanne, Arianne, John and Adam. I think they feel sorry  for me or they never would have done it. But like I said, I got caught. "I'm already leaving," I say, throwing both my hands up in the air. I walk to the doorway, but Elijah stops and blocks the doorway. He stares at the wall. "What is it?" He doesn't answer, which worries me. "Elijah?" He looks at me. "Nothing wrong, I was just thinking who was with you today according to the schedule." Wait, is there a schedule? I haven't even noticed a pattern yet. But it's possible, because I've been forgetful lately. "I'll take you to the room." He says. He steps out of the doorway and gently pushes me forward. I stand stubbornly. "I'm going outside." He frowns. "No, of course not." I'm slowly getting angrier, and I think he is aware of that. He sighs and leads me to the front door. When he opens the door I can already hear the birds chirping, they are calling me. I step outside and walk in their direction.  Elijah tries to pull me back but fails. I keep walking, outside.

I walk through the whole pack, followed by Elijah. I walk past playgrounds, the market, houses and lawns until we get back to the pack house. I open the door and walk in. Elijah falls down on the couch. "Are you tired?" I tease him. He gives me an annoyed look and I laugh. I sit down on the couch and turn on Netflix. I choose my profile and start a series. Halfway through I fall asleep again, because I have slept very little lately. Elijah shakes my shoulder. "Amy, stay awake." I mumble and go back to sleep. Elijah takes the remote and starts a movie. "Hey Amy, check it out." He whispers. I open an eye, tired. I get scared and scream. Annabel is on TV.  I slap softly hit him on his arm. "I was frightened to death!" He just laughs, and in the end I join in the laugh. Suddenly I stop laughing. My water broke. The baby is coming.
