Chapter Twenty

The motorcycle guy was surprisingly nice. He wanted to report Mack as an abusive boyfriend and Sariah had to explain they’d had a disagreement, that Mack was not abusive. He’d hurt her, but she knew he hadn’t intended to. Everything hurt though and all she wanted was distance from the pain, the humiliation, and Mack. He’d known, he’d seen those horrific pictures Denise had taken and shared everywhere she could. She tried to force it all from her mind, but couldn’t.

The motorcycle guy took her to the Greyhound in Gunnison, and luckily, the bus was only twelve minutes out. As she finally boarded it and rode toward Denver, she wilted into the upholstered seat. It smelled like moldy bread. At least Mack hadn’t found her. She felt bad for leaving him and being so dramatic about it, but she needed some distance from the pain right now and sadly he was entwined in that. She couldn’t believe how her dating Mack had exploded online. They’d been dating for months, why now? How did someone get a picture of her face and neck in the hot tub, the first time she pulled her hair back in who knew how long? There were so many questions firing in her head. She loved Mack and would expect that his family were good and honorable like him, but would his sister or brother have tipped off the media? How else would they find them and exploit them with the most horrific timing? She hated thinking ill of Mack’s family, but she couldn’t find another explanation. Unless Denise was coming after her again.

She pulled out her phone and typed in her name, Tyler’s name, and Denise’s name. The images of Sariah after Denise and her brothers tried to drown her were still there and all the sickening memories returned with them.

Tyler was four years older than her and she’d thought he was so mature, charming, and handsome. She had no idea he had a serious girlfriend in Boulder and had been two-timing both of them the summer after Sariah graduated high school. When Denise found out about Sariah, she’d attacked Tyler and his political aspirations, through attacking Sariah. She’d had her brothers almost drown Sariah in the lake by her house then rip her shirt off. When they discovered her scars, they’d laughed and taken all kinds of pictures of her. The pictures had been posted everywhere on the internet, with Denise claiming Tyler had burned Sariah every time she cheated on him. Sariah hadn’t even known about the other girl until she was attacked coming home from work late one night. Denise had served time for it, but Tyler had gotten through the lies, gone on his merry way to becoming a lawyer and was working into politics. Sariah hadn’t heard from him in almost four years. Sariah had been the one who’d had to carry the shame of it all. Over the years it seemed people had forgotten, but apparently it was still out there.
