The Voice of Reason (Part Two)

I didn’t know where to go, Charlie wouldn’t come back until 4:00 and I didn’t feel like waiting. Not witht he therapist. And certainly no wiht the voices.
I started to run ever faster, olpening the glass doors in the front of the building and hesitated. Another look back told me the therapist was still chasing me.
I headed down a windy road with plenty of cars. Hopefully someone would see hyer chaisng me and think she was mad. Maybe htey’d call the police and lock her up. The voices were coming back. “Rune Luna,” they hissed.
“Miss please slow down,” a crossing guard begged as I ran past him. I was loosing breath. I turned my head once moe to see that the lady was gone.
I was alone now. Utterly and completely alone.
“What now Lu?” the voices asked.
“I don’t know!” I yelled.
A window opened from the apartment on the curb. “Hey lady!” a man with curly hair yellled, “Shud Ap!”
I was tempted to flip him off.
“Oh Luna,” the voices rang once more. “Look behind you.”
I turned. “No,” I moaned.
