“Don’t you dare hey me! Where the hell have you been, bro? I’ve been fucking calling you since like forever.” Jake exclaimed.
I couldn’t help but roll my eyes at his over-dramatic self.
“I had my phone on silence.” I said.
If I hadn’t lied, he would have never stopped complaining about my ignorant ass.
“Did you forget?” he asked.
“Forget what?” I frowned in confusion.
I probed my mind thinking about what I might have forgotten.
“Max?” He tried to see if I remembered by simply telling me about Max.
Max? What about Max?
Just then, I remembered that last night at the party, we had decided to pay Max a visit at the hospital today.
“I’m already at the hospital. Where are you?” I lied as I squeezed my eyes shut.
How could I forget about Max? The fuck is wrong with me?
“What? You left without informing us. Anyway, we are almost reaching the hospital.” He said before cutting the call. He sounded

Shelly still looked pretty worn out with dark circles under her eyes. All of us couldn’t sleep well this past week. We thought that we would have lost our brother. He was pretty messed up after the fight with Aiden and his father. He was on the verge of losing his life. He took three bullets trying to save Shelly from them.He did not accept defeat though. Not then and not when we reached the hospital as well. He had lost consciousness and a lot of blood but he fought for his life. He had slipped in a coma for six days before waking up yesterday morning.When we heard about the coma, Connor and Alex were enraged at Aiden and his gang. They wanted to go fight their gang. Jake and I had to stop them. I was furious too but if one of us hadn’t acted rationally, maybe today, not one but more would have been injured.I was just worried about Nick coming back.

“I need to talk to her.” I said as I moved to step outside.“Girlfriend? When did this happen?” I heard one of the guys from behind exclaim but I did not stop to tell them that Lea wasn’t my girlfriend. That can wait.I walked out with the doctor following me.I could not think straight.I needed to speak to Lea.“Is she awake?” I asked.“No, not yet.” He replied as he walked beside me.I padded inside her hospital room with the doctor and nurses in tow.“You should take a look at this.” One of the nurses uttered as she handed some x-rays over to me.“Right here, it is broken with some bones cracked. If she so much as move in a bad position while asleep, these cracked bones might become severely damaged.” She explained as she circled the left side of her ribs. The bone was cracked in the middle. This must be the broken one. It was sickening to

“She has marks on her body.” I told him.I clenched my jaw when I saw a couple of people walking by, glancing my way. What the fuck is their problem? Can’t they just mind their own fucking business?“Marks?” Jason repeated.He sounded still surprised.“Are you dumb now? What’s with the one word questions?” I shouted in anger but ended up whispering when the lady behind the counter glared at me pointedly.“Why are you whispering?” Jason asked in curiosity.“Shut the fuck up! I’m at the hospital right now. The doctor checked her body. She has m-marks at her intimate parts. I think that she might have been r-raped, bro. That’s why she tried to commit suicide.” I gritted my teeth together.“But, the doctor here did not find anything. He might have missed it.” Jason replied sounding deep in thought.“Fuck! -”“Wha

“Can they still see us or did we become invisible?” I heard someone whisper behind Ryder.It was not really a whisper. It sounded like he was making sure Ryder hears him. I remembered him. It was one of the guys who burst inside Ryder’s bedroom this morning.“I don’t know about Ryder but Lea can see us pretty well.” Someone else muttered. I looked towards the voice and saw one of the girls staring at me. I tried to look away but stilled when she smiled at me.It’s been so long since someone smiled at me so warmly.The last time I remember seeing such a smile was when my mother was still living with me and my father. A memory of my mother’s smile flashed into my mind. I squeezed my eyes tightly shut as I clenched my jaw in anger. The image that once warmed my heart with love now only haunted and taunted me. If she really had to leave me, what was the point of showing me what love was and what the feeling of l

Ryder’s point of view:Lea shyly tucked her hair behind her right ear and glanced over my shoulders.The action exposed more of her face to us.A faint scar behind her right ear caught my eyes. From the way it was angled, it was surely done with a small sharp knife or some small pointy thing. It looked like she was attacked from behind.Must be her fucking father!I followed the length of it with narrowed eyes. The line disappeared down her neckline, under her shirt.If I wasn’t so close to her, I would have missed it.She withdrew her trembling hands onto her lap.She was griping the bed sheets tightly.“H-Hi” she stuttered out and quickly glanced down at her hands.She kept fidgeting her fingers together.“Stop doing that, you’ll hurt yourself.” I told her but she ended up flinching away from me.Was I too harsh? Before I could apologize fo

I slowed down once I reached the hospital forty minutes later and swerved the steering wheel to the right to turn the corner.The ride from my place to the hospital usually took forty minutes. I made that journey in ten minutes when I drove Lea to the hospital earlier. It sounded insane to even think about it later on.I panicked upon seeing the state she was in. The adrenaline rushing through my veins at that time made me rush to the hospital but thankfully, the roads at night here were not as busy as during the day.After parking the car back to the same spot as before, we got out. The spot was strangely still available.I grabbed the bag which contained everything Lea would need during her stay at the hospital.I handed Jake the hot soup before locking my car.Jake had been quiet during the ride back to my home and back to the hospital. I kept pestering him to tell me about what the guys were hiding from me but he wouldn’t bulge.

Lea’s point of view: A week passed by quicker than I had anticipated. I was reluctant to stay here. I wanted to go home but then I realized that I did not have any home. Ryder’s place was just my temporary home. I couldn’t ask him to take me home. It was getting awkward to even face him. Even though I stayed with him, no communication was as smooth as butter with him. I couldn’t bring myself to speak to him like I would to Jason. I felt my tongue tightened at the sight of Ryder. His strong dominating and determined aura whenever he walked into a room intimidated me. He appeared powerful and confident. Ryder and Shelly visited me every morning and evening during this one week. Shelly would usually drop by during her visits at the hospital. Her boyfriend, Max had injured himself in a fight two weeks back but he was getting better. Ryder brought me different soups every day while Shelly fed me. The first time she

Lea's point of view:Both Aubrey and Shelly would go through all the events that occurred during their days at school every evening and I would listen to them. Their days at school were never uneventful with the guys. The guys were always creating some troubles to piss off the principal. I always listened to Shelly blabbering about her boyfriend, Max and the rest of the guys.Aubrey would crack some jokes in the middle of their chatter which would halt Shelly in her ramble but they would always laugh it out. Aubrey seemed nice too.Their soft voices made me realize that I was here, alive and free and away from my cruel father. They managed to get closer to me than I thought they would.There were only two times that Ryder did not visit me but he did sent the soup with Jake. Shelly had told me that Ryder was busy with something but the next day when he dropped by, he was alone and he had a busted lip which seemed fresh but healing.
