I quietly close the door, but apparently, it wasn't soft enough because I heard footsteps race toward me.

"Rowan, where have you been? We've been so worried." My mom’s panicked voice causes me to spin around in surprise. I meet the wide eyes of my mom, dad, and brother as they surround me.

My hackles immediately rise as I begin to feel caged in. "I went out for a little bit. I'm fine. I didn't mean to make you worry."

"You can't just leave like that without telling us where you're going," My dad scolds.

"Why not? I'm not sixteen anymore, Dad. I'm twenty-six. I'm an adult. I understand that my returning has been hard on everyone, but shouldn't I attempt to live a normal life?" I stare at them in exasperation. I have been trying for the last week, but they’re making it impossible to move on from what happened to me. Yes, I won’t let them tell anyone I’m back, but that’s beside the point.

"Normal?" Tyler scoffs. "Nothing about this is normal. You show up out of the blue after missing for ten years, and you expect everyone to move on and do what you say? Are you sure you’re really telling us the truth? Maybe you simply ran away and couldn’t fend for yourself anymore. Maybe you knew giving Mom and Dad a sob story meant they would take you in without question."

My eyes narrow on Tyler irritated that he would hurl accusations at me. "I’m sorry that my sudden appearance has disrupted your life so much. I don’t care if you believe me or not.” I poke my finger into my chest as I hiss at him, “I know what happened to me. I know what I went through, and I know that I was lucky to make it out.” I angrily swipe away a tear that has rolled down my cheek. Rage surfaces, making me lash out, “You don't even live here anymore. Why are you here? Don’t you have your own family you should be taking care of? Officer...No wait…” I put my hand out in front of me, and in an overly dramatic fashion, I correct myself. “Detective Burris, shouldn’t your family be getting your attention instead of you interrogating me every chance you get?"

"That's right, I don't live here, but I'm here because Mom and Dad were worried sick about you. I’ve been doing research on your case, and I’m trying to help you. Don't be selfish."

That freaks me out, but I swallow my fear. Instead, I sneer, "Selfish? I'm not being selfish when I simply wanted to go out for a little bit. I have been stuck in this house for the last week, walking on eggshells and having all of you watch my every move. I needed space to breathe. Is it so wrong that I needed a little peace, that I needed to feel normal, that I needed to feel comfortable?”

Mom mediates, “No, honey, we understand. We were simply concerned about you is all.
