I'm Not A Liar, I Just Don't Tell The Truth

Chapter 2: Someone Has a Bit of Explaining to Do

"I'm sorry, what?" A very stunned Charlotte asked the young girl.

"Please just don't ask questions, I just need you to examine me." Ana said shortly.

"I'm sorry, Sweetie, but I can't just examine you until you tell me why and what I should be examining you for." Charlotte responded, rather annoyed.

"I- uh..." Ana thought hard. Think of something quick "I feel like I might have an infection...there...and I just want to make sure I'm okay." ,lied Ana.

"Uh... well...I guess I can examine you. Come with me." Charlotte said, leading Ana to a room at her hospital. Charlotte didn't believe Ana for a minute.

After a thorough examination, Charlotte found nothing out of the ordinary.

"You are fine. I didn't see anything that isn't the way it is supposed to be." Charlotte said eying the young girl.

"Are you sure I'm okay?" Ana eagerly asked.

"Well, as far as I'm concerned." Charlotte started, then narrowing in on Ana, she finished, "But if you told me exactly what this was about, then that might change things."

"I can't." Ana said with a cold shiver.

"If it's something serious, then someone needs to know. Especially your sister."

"NO." Ana firmly said, jumping up, "you can't tell her that I came to see you like this!"

"Ana, is everything okay? Seriously. You can tell me if something isn't. I'm worried right now." Charlotte said with great concern.

"I'm fine, Charlotte. But thank you." Ana sternly said as she got up to leave.

Just as she ran out of the office, she ran right into Violet...again.

"Nice. You keep running into me Ana!" Violet joked.

"Sorry." Ana sheepishly said as she ran away.

"What the hell was that about?" Violet asked as Charlotte came out of the room right behind Ana.

"I don't even know. She told me not to tell anyone." Charlotte honestly said.

"You have to tell Addison if it's something serious; she has the right to know."

"I know, but I don't even know what is going on! She didn't tell me anything. She asked me to examine her, but she didn't tell me what it was for. She lied and said she had an infection."

"How do you know it was a lie?" Violet inquired.

"Trust me psych, if you had seen the look on her face, you would have instantly known." Charlotte exhaled. "I don't know what to do. I have a feeling I know what she is hiding, but I'm not sure."

"What do you think it is?"

"The way that Ana shook and shivered while I was examining her, I could safely assume that she had sex. Maybe she is pregnant? I didn't examine for that persay." Charlotte guessed.

"Well, if she is pregnant, then Addison has to know." Violet said, "We have to go talk to her right now."

"No, we can't tell Addison anything!" Charlotte said in a violently loud whisper.

"What aren't we telling Addison?" A familiar voice said, peering from around the corner. Addison's. Of course.

"Uh nothing." Violet quickly said.

"Convincing. Now tell me the truth. What is it?" Addison firmly said.

"Why is Ana here?" Violet came right out and asked.

"Maybe she just wanted to visit her lovely sister? Is that a crime?" Addison retorted.

"We are just concerned because something doesn't look right with Ana, that's all that this is about." Charlotte quickly interjected.

"I know my sister. She would tell me if something is wrong, so when she tells you that she is okay, trust her. She is okay." Addison angrily said as she walked away.

"Oh god." Violet said under her breath as Addison walked away, "Well, then maybe she's right. We should just leave her alone."

"Okay." Charlotte said as she walked away. She wasn't going to leave Ana alone. Charlotte knew what this was about. She didn't tell Violet, but she knew. From recent personal experience, she knew.

Ana had made it back to the central offices of the wellness center and sat down and took a moment to breathe. She was okay. Nothing was wrong. Now if she could just erase the memory from her mind, everything would be okay. But no, she couldn't. Not yet. Not ever.

Tears silently started to fall from her face. Then they turned into violent sobs. Until someone walked in.

"Hey, are you okay?" Amelia inquired nervously as she found the girl sobbing on the lobby couch.

"Yes, I'm fine. I'm just stressed out right now." Ana lied, trying to shoo away Amelia.

"I'm sorry. Is there anything I can do to help?"

"No." Ana said silently. "But thank you."

Amelia took that as the exact 'please leave me alone' hint as it was, and left, meeting Charlotte in the hall right after.

"Hey have you seen Ana?" Charlotte asked Amelia.

"Yes. She is in that room crying right now. Don't know why, she wouldn't tell me." Amelia sighed as she left.

Great. Charlotte thought as she entered the room.

"Don't walk away from me." Charlotte ordered as she shut the door behind her, enclosing herself and Ana in the room.

"I just stubbed my toe and it hurt really bad." Ana lied.

"Listen. I know you don't want to talk about it, but I just wanted to let you know that you can talk about whatever it is that is going on, with me. You can trust me."

"I appreciate that, but I am fine. Really, Charlotte. I'm fine." Ana calmly said.

"Who did this to you?" Charlotte quietly asked.

"What?" Ana said shocked.

"Who violated you?"

"I don't know what you are talkin-" Ana started as she abruptly stood up.

"Ana. I know. I knew the minute I started examining you. I knew someone had hurt you. I knew all of this because it happened to me."

"You don't know a single thing about me!" Ana cried back at her.

"No, I don't. But if you tell me, I might be able to help you." Charlotte said back, as calmly as possible.

Ana just cried harder.

"I know how hard it is. I know how it feels to walk around thinking he is behind you, following you wherever you go." Charlotte said as she sat down next to Ana, who had sunken back down on the couch.

"You don't know." Ana cried, "I'm fine." She said as she turned to leave.

"Not so fast." Addison said as she barricaded the door. "Someone has a little bit of explaining to do first."
