Chapter 3: Lone thoughts
Dudley was injured. Badly.
Everybody was sent home earlier. The teachers were all in panic, and Holly could still hear the sound of police cars in the distance. She wasn't sure if auntie or uncle were told yet of what happened. She was absolutely sure that Uncle would be yelling everywhere, and auntie…
Holly was scared. Because, Dudley never got hurt. Not this badly. And it was bad. She knew so, because there was no crying and no screaming. Only silence followed afterwards.
Would they blame her because of this?
When she reached her doorstep, the house was empty.
