Summary: Dani needs to escape. Rachel has a solution
Two years later and Dani still had the nightmares about her ordeal with Roman.
“I know he’s dead,” she told Rachel on the phone one night. “I know he’s dead, but still I turn a corner or see a certain place or the light and shadows fall a certain way and it’s just like the moment before… before…”
“Before he took you.”
“Yeah. And I should be over this, I know I should. I look at Crews and how well he’s adjusted just a short time away from Pelican Bay and I just want to punch him. How can it be so easy for him and not for me?”
“Maybe the change of scenery is what did it.”
“Great. Maybe I should go to Pelican Bay. No not there, they wouldn’t take me, but-“
“Why don’t you come here?”
“Kentucky?” Dani laughed.
“It might be what you need.”
“And then I come back to L.A. and deal with the same shit all over again. No thanks.”
“I was thinking you could stay.”
“In Kentucky.”
“Yes.”
“With you.”
“Yes.”
“I-“
“Sleep on it.”
“Okay.”
The next day found Dani booking a one-way ticket to Lexington and giving notice at her job.
