Chapter Nine.
--
As Grissom got into his car, he couldn't help but feel guilty for leaving Sara. She did tell him that he could go, so why was Gil feeling guilty.
It wouldn't be because something was about to happen to Sara, would it? No, Grissom didn't know anything about that yet.
So why did Grissom feel guilty? Would it be because he just left the woman he loved, after saying he wouldn't leave her. Maybe he still wasn't satisfied with her promise. Or, maybe he was scared that Sara would try to commit suicide again.
--
Sara looked around her empty apartment and sighed. Again, she was all alone.
Sara Sidle's pitiful life was about to go through a loop on this emotional roller coaster.
Sara just wanted the ride to stop.
--
Grissom got to CSI and got out of his car. He thought about calling Sara and making sure that she was alright. You're just paranoid... He thought to himself.
Ah, but Gil Grissom, you should have called her...
Grissom walked into his office, where the mayor and sheriff were meeting him.
--
Sara decided to have a quick shower. After that, she dried her hair with a towel, then brushed it. She walked out into the kitchen and looked at the clock. When is Grissom going to be back? Sara asked herself.
She couldn't help but ask herself if Gil had forgotten about her. No, of course not! Sara told herself.
But, you can say one thing, and think differently.
--
"Okay, thank you." Gil said to the mayor and sheriff as he left the room. He had tried to end the meeting for over ten minutes, finally, it was over. As Grissom was about to walk out of the building, Catherine ran up to him.
"Hey, where have you been?" Catherine asked him.
"What?" Gil asked.
"You've missed the start of shift, it started two hours ago." Catherine explained.
"Sorry, I had a meeting with the mayor." Gil said.
"Oh. So, where are you going now?" She asked.
"I've got to run. Something at home, I'll be back as soon as I can." Gil said quickly, then he walked out of the building as fast as he could.
--
Sara was brushing her hair, when someone knocked at her apartment door. She put the brush down and walked out of her room.
She opened her apartment door, and was tackled to the ground.
--
Grissom drove back to Sara's apartment complex. He parked his car and went into the building. He knocked on the door, but didn't get an answer. Not again..
Gil opened the door and walked into the apartment.
"Don't move or I slice her throat."
