Karins pov..

"This way ." My dad spoke lowly tugging my arm

I took in my surroundings starting from the hardwood glossy floors to the high ceiling

"I think he's still in his office.." he trailed off pointing to a door with translucent glass that read "shons room"

I nodded my head

"If we're quiet enough we can sneak out the back door."

I rubbed my stomach in small circles feeling sharp pains

I groaned in agony and he looked back at me with a concerned look

"Sweetie are you okay ?" He whispered

I shook my head no and he sighed

"Stay here I'll go get you something to ease the pain ."
And with that he walked away

It was hard acknowledging him as "dad" again but I was getting a bit more comfy with it

"Yes . Of course ." I heard him say

"As soon as the baby is out I'm putting it up for adoption and selling Karin."

"Its not much but it's all I could find in his medicine cabinet ."

I nodded and swallowed the pill

"We gotta keep moving ."

I nodded my head and he grabbed my hand to help me off the sofa

We walked out of the room with him leading the way

"Okay..the back door is right there-

"Where the hell do you think you going ?" Shons voice boomed through the house

Fear invaded my heart causing my breathing to speed up

"Come on daddy think of something." I mentally stated

"S-she had to use the bathroom and the can you left down there is full."

Shon nodded
