convinced herself she could do it without breaking down. She could be strong if
she didn’t look anyone in the eye, but almost immediately she saw her mother,
and all Sage’s resolve vanished into thin air. The tears were instant, and she
pulled her hand away from her captor’s. “MOM!” Sage cried, and tried to race to
her mother’s arms. Several of

villagers stood further behind and cried softly, the happiness of earlier
forgotten. “Let her say goodbye,”
her mother and sisters. For a few moments, they all stood in a collective
embrace. “I’m so sorry,” Sage’s mother whispered. “I’m so so sorry, Sage. I’m a
fool. I’m a damn fool.” Sage wanted to agree with her but didn’t want what
could potentially be her final moments with her mother to be angry ones.

distant. Just before the road bent, and Community vanished from sight, she saw
a man with olive skin and black hair standing by the edge of the road. He
seemed vaguely familiar somehow, though Sage was convinced she was so scared
she was no longer thinking logically. As they passed, she made eye contact with
him, his eyes were hazel. He looked at her solemnly before he took one of his
fists and placed it over his heart. Sage’s eyes widened as she tried to process
the gesture’s meaning, but when she looked over her shoulder, all she saw was
the bend in the trail. Community and the man were out of sight.
