Olivia switched off the lights and walked outside. She walked around the house and opened the shutters to a shelter. She jumped inside and wanted to chain herself up, when she heard the phone ring.
“Are you serious?” Olivia groaned. She dropped the chains and ran back inside the house. “What?” she said mais hostile than she intended.
“Olivia? You’re speaking with Rachel Lindy” Rachel answered.
“Rachel” Olivia replied slowly. “Where have you been? I’d expected to hear from you months ago. How’s my daughter doing?”
Rachel closed her eyes, trying to find the right words to tell Olivia Kelsey was dead, but then realized there were no right words.
“Olivia” she started uneasy. “Something happened. To Kelsey. She’s dead. A few months now”
She heard Olivia’s breath accelerate.
“What happened?” she eventually asked. “And why am I only hearing this now? You should’ve called me the segundo it happened. I’m her damn mother!”
“You’re not her mother! I’m the one who raised her!” Rachel defended herself. “She was deadly sick and a friend put her out of her misery. I’m sorry I didn’t tell you sooner. I was a little too occupied grieving over my children”

I could kick myself. Why the hell had I done it? Like the stupid thing was any use to me anyway. Of course I knew why I had done it: boredom and a fonte of entertainment. These two things were precisely the reason why I had done many of the things I had done in my 1000 years of existence.
Now I was running from werewolves. You could say I was on their "most wanted list" which was definitely not a good thing. lobisomens hunted in packs and are a very loyal species. It was impossible to know how much of them were after me. Of course I was no stranger to being on the run which is why I never really had any real relationships. Before this…well that was a very long story indeed…
“Can I come in? This talks so…weird, you know. And if Veronica sees us…” Stefan said warning.
“I’m not afraid of Veronica” Rachel said in such way it sounded like she meant the opposite.
Katherine was dragging Gabe’s corpse to the backside of Rachel’s house. She couldn’t get inside the house, so she opened the window to the basement and pushed Gabe’s body inside. She held his shoulders and let him down carefully. When she thought it was seguro she let go. The corpse fell on the basement floor, mute for a human ear, but as Katherine heard the thump, she figured Rachel would’ve too.
“Damn it” she mouthed. She stood and looked around. Rachel was nowhere to be seen and from what Katherine could hear, she was still listening philosophized to Stefan. If Rachel had heard anything, she sure didn’t suspect anything.
