I’m going to die. I can’t untangle my fucking earbuds. A pair of heavy footsteps lands beside mine. “Why are we running?” Oh great. I swear he must be having me watched. “Leave me alone.” “How’s that going?” asks Alex, nodding down at my earphones. A low rumble reverberates through the air around us, my fingers desperately trying to undo the knots in the wires. “It’s not funny,” I snap, hands shaking too hard. He takes the earphones from my hands, making quick work of the wires and handing them back to me. “Your audiobook addiction is getting out of hand.”
