Joan’s pov

“She will be fine,” a more muscular voice said. It sounded close enough that I could say it was in the same room I was in.

“When she wakes up, I would like to talk to her before her parents; can that be arranged?"

"Yes, ma’am, you can talk to her when she wakes up, or whenever you please."

My feathery lashes batted against each other, slowly opening my eyes. I met the harsh ray of light trying to blind me, but soon enough it was obstructed by a lady who was familiar in all senses: her pained smile and blond hair, her grace and aura—everything made my body jitter in fear and uncertainty.

“How are you feeling, Joan?” She placed her hands on my head, then stared at the doctor, who now approached with those doctor thingies; they hung on their necks, and he placed them on my chest. He asked some questions, which I deemed dumb, but when he was done, he left me to Isaac’s mother.

    Frederick POVJoan wouldn’t talk to me; it’s been three months already, and it felt like a century; nothing seems to be making sense anymore; I barely laughed genuinely in three months; Sophia had been on my neck too about Joan. She would constantly visit to make sure I retained my four-foot rule.She even had me recite my rules before I left her. I never looked at any woman when I was with her; I was to compliment her every chance I got, and I was told to smile whenever we were in public places. She recently developed the habit of having a foursome and giving everyone a number and position every week. With all this going on, I was the only one on her social media.And anytime I disobeyed her, I had to deal with her constant nagging and complaining about this and that. She would refer it to Joan and explain how she saved me from being charged with a felony, but I was tired of everything.

Due to her closeness to the staircase, she tripped and fell all the way to the base of the stairs, and the last thing that affirmed me was her scream when she fell.Now she was in the ICU, and I couldn’t stop crying; I didn’t want to survive anymore; I hated my life at that point; I didn’t see the reason to survive; every sound existed in my mind yet it felt so quiet; I was so tired of living yet too afraid to end it all; it just didn’t work well with me, not after what had happened."Joan, look at me,” someone said, tapping my chin, but my vision was clouded, and I couldn't see any further than an inch. My body was numb and disconnected; I knew I was whimpering and shivering. When I think of it, that was all I remembered.The scent of blood, the jitter, and the cold shivers—that was all I could recall.“Joan, snap out of this, breathe!" More people

    Joan’s POVA week passed like the snap of a finger. Fred didn’t get to visit as frequently; his time spent was rationed, while on the other hand, Jones wasn’t allowed in the building. After his repulsive trigger, he was banned from seeing me or mom, which meant for a week I was trigger-free, so Fred basically brought food and fed mom and me.He would feed mom, then come back to me. While feeding me, he never spoke about what his father did, but he said sorry in so many ways, which made me feel empty and guilty. I was a person at fault, and yes, he was right. I felt selfish because if I had agreed with Jones offers, which I was still considering, maybe everyone would be happy.In one week, I spent it checking out schools over here to see if I would find one that was close enough for a cab drive. I tried to see the bright side, but there was none. I was on fire if I decided to stay, and he would keep on using me till I had nothing to give anymore.It wasn’t because of the money he gave

She wouldn’t stop talking about how she found Fred attractive, and it disgusted me, but I held down my disgust with a smiling face."So you are going out with him tonight, right?” She asked. Daisy held my hair, sharing in my eye, “You must not turn him down, Bonita. Papi is looking fire; they don’t make them that way anymore," she said in her Mexican ascent, which made me laugh.I remembered what Fred said about him; maybe what he said was from a position of utter jealousy, and at that point I really wished he would just leave me alone so I could try other things, but he wouldn't. He had been buzzing my phone nonstop about how Max was not a good dude and I should stay away from guys for now. He constantly used Isaac as a starting point.‘Remember the last time you chose a man for yourself; don’t do this to yourself anymore.I

I was left speechless, and she placed the veil on my head, making my heart jitter.It looked so beautiful. I looked this beautiful, and it was a surprise to me at my wedding that I wouldn’t see my reflection till the final touch, just staring at the final touch.“Do you like it?” She said, patting my cheek with a makeup brush.“It’s perfect"“Well, I hope the groom is more shocked than you because you look stunned," she said, and with a fine touch, she kissed my forehead.It was my wedding day, and I had been up since 5 a.m., but it was worth it; the look was perfect.Few hours from now, Fred and I would be arriving in the church to exchange our vows before the reception, and even after so much planning, I still felt a knot in my belly, my heart pounding and my hands itching to be held by him.I imagined what he would look like and what his reaction woul

    TWO YEARS LATERJoan’s POVThe weather seemed so cold today. I stretched my hands to feel his body, but it's nowhere to be found—not even close enough after rolling to the edge of the bed.“Baby,” I whispered, yet nothing at all"Babe, where are you?"Yet it was all so quiet. I waited a little; maybe he went to the bathroom. Looking at the side of the bed, it’s just 6 a.m. in the morning, so he either went for a run or would be back soon, so I waited, but it clocked nine and I was still on the bed.It’s a Saturday, and not just like every Saturday, it’s my birthday. I had expected him to wake me up with kisses and maybe good morning sex, but no, he chose to go out instead. I felt so disappointed in him.Picking up my phone I called him, but his phone was ringing, and he wasn’t answering.

George, who had just been shot in the arm, said he was bleeding on the floor and had now been carried away by the paramedics.Then I stared back at this embarrassment of a father. He held a smug look on his face as she stared deadpan at me.“You don’t have what it takes to pull the trigger; you think having balls like a man makes you any stronger; no, it doesn't; do your worst; you are just like me anyway.""Never; I am nothing like you; I never will be." I yelled, forbidding whatever he said. I had fought too much to remove that thought from my mind. I didn’t waste money on so much therapy just so he could look me in the eye and call me a replica.I was nothing like my father—nothing at all.“Fight it all

    Joan’s POVAfter mom's surgery, we were to go home and probably come to pay her regular visit, but that wasn’t the only good thing that had happened.Fred and I left the hospital and went back home, just to hear West crying. It was concerning, given the fact that Lisa should be consoling him, but he was banging on the door and crying bitterly when Fred and I pulled up at the house.“Hey baby, I am coming,” I said, rising towards the door and hitting on it so Lisa would open the door. I hoped she didn’t vent her anger on the little child who did absolutely nothing to cause her this much misery, but it seemed she wasn’t going to open the door, so Fred called her, endlessly hoping she would open the door but still doing the same thing.“Did she lock us out for good? You gave her the house, didn’t you?”“Yes, but is it not too quick to throw us out? I mean, I have things in there too." We started off by calling her name and banging on it even more.
