I also wanted to give my fingers a well-deserved break.

Hesitating, I waited a few moments before hitting call.

It didn’t ring at all.

“This number is officially out of service,” a robotic voice droned in my ear. “Please check the number and dial again.”

Confused, I double-checked it, but before redialing once more, a new wave of nausea sent me running to the toilet.

This time, it didn’t let up for hours.

It was official.

My days of plotting and planning, waiting for the perfect moment to leave, were over.

It was now or never.
