Five hours later the doctor had informed that Elizabeth was fully awake but in bad shape.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5b3IaYd4V
I ignored his warning and barged in like a wild animal.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjP2fmakIB
I spotted Elizabeth sitting on the bed she had curled into a ball. Her head buried in her lap she was sobbing uncontrollably.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVzCPAI1Fs
Guilt sliced through me like a sharp knife.
I needed to make sure that she was okay.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlf0aSftrn
I reached out to touch her.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1UzGWr3MC
Once my hand made contact with her skin her head immediately jerked up in alertness.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAoHego07E
"Don't touch me!" She screamed.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ62dbUwLX3
Her lips were trembling.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOFsYjZHTE
It was all fault.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxhWKCr6uy
"Please don't hurt me..."
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoM4y9Vb7Qo
I backed away as guilt consumed me whole. I recalled Crystal's words.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyK2fao7b7
"I'll teach her a lesson, leave the planning to me."
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUuxIuhyoD
When Elizabeth started having a panic attack three nurses rushed in accompanying the doctor.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4iuDrtz6cf
They tied Elizabeth against the bed because she was struggling and she was being violent.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRNw0YtFfQ
I just stood there staring. I was stuck.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrA8gkgor8
The doctor injected her with something and she slowly closed her eyes.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrG6UjbfPh
He walked towards me.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuefN6uqWvP
"She's traumatized Hayden and her case is very delicate. She continues to be in shock for much longer. She'll be unstable and she will need to be put in a mental health facility."
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiO71AckAuh
My heart tightened in my chest.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFs54yMnBS2
"What?"
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1N8jNhJHj
The doctor nodded quietly.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42Sx5Ks5x8
"How do I get her out of her shock?" I asked curiously. I got Elizabeth in this mess and I'm going to get her out at any fucking cost.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb61IFbYags
The doctor gave me a smile.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZxQR3WDg6
He liked my guts.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBwazZvMRX
"Make her remember about her positive memories that will bring her in terms of reality. Mostly let her cry, trust me it will help."
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DdRpCBaoE
I nodded quietly.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpue7AIkg8
The hospital notified Elizabeth's mother to come to the hospital.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBRwk1IdSP
She would be coming soon. And that was my cue to leave.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22YIP8wVHf
I left the hospital and went back to college. I'm sure I would find Crystal there when it was time to confront her.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptjw1Unv3A
An hour later I was dragging Crystal behind the gate where we couldn't be seen.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7NqsGPLpx
"Hey let go of me!" She snapped angrily and I released her.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29SLdWICZp
"Did you send Mark and his friends after Elizabeth?"
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiYfjTB43O
She frowned.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpcYqkyiMF
" Answer me."
" Yes I did it's not a big deal" Crystal replies coolly.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51vOpiBpYN
I slapped her across the face.
She gasped in shock and held her sore cheek.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmahSFxSwk
I gripped her shoulders tightly digging my nails into her flesh making sure to leave the bruises I saw on Elizabeth's body.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG55EFvRWCc
She winced in pain and her voice was filled with fear.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrs3AUYEsY
"Hayden you're hurting me..."
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuappt3NkK
"Are you crazy Crystal? getting Elizabeth fucking raped by Mark and his fucking friends wasn't a good idea!"
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQS9vhbjWcO
Crystal's face went pale.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh48qcg9qvF
" Raped by Mark?" She repeated in shock.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fv4dCt2Ov
"Oh my God that's not fault Hayden I didn't know that Mark would take things personally. I'm a girl as well Hayden I would never get Elizabeth raped" she sobs.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIklrfw6JjB
I released her.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynM4kGKvsF
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSMyjVOQwB
" Well your plan your stupid plan backfired and Elizabeth is traumatized all this and she's in a fucking hospital tied to a bed because she won't stop screaming."
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4NRgPY67m
Crystal flinched and her teary eyes met mine and she gave me a taunting look.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWxksItkAy
"My stupid plan?"
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMhfG29ekU
"Don't you fucking put the problem on me Hayden you were also a part of this it's also your fault!" Crystal yells and storms off leaving me feeling like shit.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEsIViy5bv
She was right.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54R3XONdTk
This was all my fault.
I was more guilty than Crystal.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6kkx0GLVb
I pushed the wall in anger and it cracked.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj05fnIaHgh
She was right. I'm also at fault.
I left and went back home.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGQ0G4c4hO
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJPT7UQBgh
Everybody knows my name now
But somethin' 'bout it still feels strange
Like looking' in a mirror, tryna steady yourself
And seein' somebody else
And everything is not the same now
It feels like all our lives have changed
Maybe when I'm older, it'll all calm down
But it's killin' me now
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUSxIPIBuj
What if you had it all
But nobody to call?
Maybe then you'd know me
'Cause I've had everything
But no one's listening
And that's just fuckin' lonely
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCg78BcDVFa
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1R5JD7DKyI
I'm so lo-o-o-onely
Lo-o-o-onely
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyuA0ZaKh7
Everybody knows my past now
Like my house was always made of glass
And maybe that's the price you pay
For the money and fame at an early age
And everybody saw me sick
And it felt like no one gave a shit
They criticized the things I did as an idiot kid
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FiHZAJX8f
What if you had it all
But nobody to call?
Maybe then you'd know me
'Cause I've had everything
But no one's listening
And that's just fuckin' lonely
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSEXyhzlTJ
I'm so lo-o-o-onely

VERONA'S POV ( ELIZABETH'S MOTHER)
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkETOfnjb39
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFoZhfyrzV
When the hospital called and told me what had happened to my daughter I was already in the car driving to the same hospital.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuV9HiiV1fy
Tears rolled down my cheeks.
Some guys wanted to hurt my baby girl.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS67yI0vW4C
When I arrived at the hospital I was already crying my eyes out.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTIKEu98IC
I already lost Azalea. I couldn't lose Elizabeth as well; she was the only thing that kept me going.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuvVY6BU0G
She must survive.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0nxrYWlpF
The nurse had offered me a glass of water I had flatly refused her offer. I just wanted to see my daughter.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiFG4nDvcF
The doctor was still checking her.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6zUc74zyu
The nurse told me that she had a lot of bruises on her body and that her blouse was torn but there was no sign of intercourse.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1m0ku9Mdc
They didn't rape her.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBbzZzTxZf
But their intentions were clear.
The police were already investigating the case. A guy who brought Elizabeth had told them what happened.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rk4il0oJg
I wanted to personally thank him but the nurse told me that he had left an hour ago.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznkPwUIVoc
He saved Elizabeth and I owned him my life.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0V6sNpoC2
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwo70eodlEk
A girl's screams filled the hospital halls and I immediately recognized the voice it was Elizabeth.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfzj22X83h
The nurse tried to stop me but I pushed her away and barged into the room where they were keeping Elizabeth.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGvCW8Ln87
The mere sight of Elizabeth sent me into a dark tunnel and I broke down crying.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGOg3AlUtk
"Why was the universe against me and my only child? I sobbed miserably.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWv4U4tYtKP
I couldn't bear the pain.
I rushed out of the room and the doctor followed me.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVsmXMAm4v
"Ms. Verona please wait!"
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFBKehivHw
I stopped in my tracks.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJVWou8mHx
And I faced him.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXn3Jz6JHp6
He wrapped his arms around me and sank into his embrace.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHJsT3qadM
"She'll fine trust me" he said firmly.
