Chapter 12 - The Knowledge They Fear

The past wasn’t chasing me.
It was chasing information.
Something I knew.
Something I protected.
The reason I disappeared.
The reason I trusted nobody.
The reason I built a completely different life.
The sheriff asked:
“Do you still have it?”
I didn’t answer.
Because I did.
Hidden.
Protected.
Waiting.
Then another message arrived.
This time with a warning.
“Bring back what you took.”
The sheriff looked at me.
“What did you take?”
I stared at the screen.
And finally said:
May you like
“The truth.”
