If he didn’t get away he was certain the anxiety that racked his body would cripple him. Consequences be damned, he had to do this for him.
Ever so slowly he made his way across the room and grasped at his last resort. Flipping open the cover, his fingers slid across the page, his eyes adjusted to the text, minutes later his was gone.
