Chapter 10 - Maya Calls Her Sister For Urgent Emergency Shelter
The phone in Maya’s hand rang twice before her younger sister, Chloe, answered with a sleepy, anxious tone.
“Maya? Is everything alright? It’s past midnight,” Chloe asked, instantly picking up on the tension in her sister's voice.
“I caught Richard with another woman in our house, Chloe... and I found fake passports and cash hidden in the pantry,” Maya confessed.

“Are you and Emma safe right now? Do I need to call the police to meet you at my apartment?” Chloe demanded urgently.
“We’re on our way to your place right now, but we need a safe place to stay for a few days,” Maya replied, gripping the steering wheel.

Maya hung up the phone, feeling the first genuine wave of relief wash over her exhausted, battered soul.
