Chapter 20
Damned Love“Did you miss me?”, a voice asked, from a distance, as I slowly opened my eyes. This was it! This was my vision. It had finally come true. I was in a dark room just like the dream; the only light coming in was from a doorway, where the voice was standing. I already knew who that voice belonged to now. It was JR.
