After replying to Charles, Skylar checked Natalie's messages on WhatsApp. Natalie had sent increasingly tic photos.

There's only one explanation-you've been up to no good! Tellhonestly! Don't lie to your best friend!" "Are you okay?" "I just realized I don't know your address. Are you sick? I've heard there's a case of bad flu going around with high fevers. If you see this, reply right away so I can ctake care of you!" "Skye!" "My friend!" It was clear from this string of messages that Natalie was getting worried.
