I’d then jumped on the 8:05 bus that ran a short distance between my house and the county library where I worked.

After straightening my knee-length skirt, I pushed open the door that led into the interior of the library.

I was 17 when my daddy gave me to Torch, who inked me, kissed me, then watched me walk away. I was supposed to return after I graduated, but instead I ran. Now I'm back, ready to face whatever fate awaits me. He's probably pissed, and rightly so. It was only supposed to be a short separation, but three years have passed.
