She is hoping not to hear her mother's angry yells."Selene!"A middle-aged woman pried open the child's room door. She carried her legs with her hips towards Selene, who was suffocating a pair of ears with a pillow."Can't you be a helpful kid?"The woman became enraged. She yanked and tossed the lavender-covered pillow around before grabbing the brown mane of the girl who was lying on her back at the time.The girl sat on the edge of the bed, her head raised, staring at her mother with all her rage."You did manage to squander thousands of dollars that would have gone into my pocket, you son of a b*tch!"After successfully venting her r

"Hey?" Eric and Daniele swiftly approached Zoe who had just opened her eyes —unconscious after battling her panic attack. Zoe frowned when she found herself in a hospital room with an IV tube connected to her left hand. Eric and Daniele stared at her uncertainly, worried and curious into one. "You okay?" Eric was the first to voice his concern for Zoe. "How are you feeling, hmm?" said Daniele spontaneously. Zoe shrugged.
