Four days had passed and Morgan decided it was time to confront her brother. Unfortunately what she found wasn't her brother. It was a mess of crying and whimpering. She walked to him and wrapped him up in a hug as he cried into her top.
"I c-c-can't take it anymore. The pain m-m-make it go away" Morgan listened to him unknowing that Topanga had snuck in the house and was listening to their conversation. "Morgan they threatened to hurt you and Eric M-m-m-make everything go away!." Morgan rocked Corey back and forth. After hearing him Topanga walked in. Morgan looked up in surprise and Corey ignored her. Topanga sat down next to Cory and said nothing instead just rubbing his back. Morgan didn't know whether to yell at Topanga for sneaking in or hug her for not saying anything. She was totally at a loss.
Topanga looked at Corey then at Morgan who muttered bullied. Topanga nodded "Hey Corey erm, everything will get better."
"Topanga they are evil it will not get better!" Morgan wanted to hold the same belief as Topanga but she wasn't there to clean Corey's bruises and cuts, nor was she there when Corey repeats what they said. Yes Topanga can have that belief but Morgan can't, she knew Corey had to lose. Corey can't be held responsible. After a while the sobbing stopped and the girls moved Cory onto the bed hoping he'd be more comftable.
Once the girls went downstairs Topanga took her tine letting Morgan tell the tale.
"He's being bullied. He won't say it out loud but I figured it out whenever he came home he'd spent most of the time in his room. I walked in demanding answers what I saw…. It …. It wasn't pretty. There were busies everywhere. He had one cut down his back, I tried to get him to tell someone. The people though… they threatened you, Shawn, me and Eric. He quickly backed out. I-I-I-I don't know what to do. I can't help him the way I am now is killing him!" Morgan began crying on Topanga who hugged her. Morgan was filled with such grief that even Morgan making her favourite dessert didn't help.
"Morgan tell me exactly what he said about not telling somebody" Morgan looked up
"He said we couldn't tell our parents because he wouldn't speak to me again"
"Then don't" Morgan looked confused "Tell Mr Feeny" Topanga added. Suddenly Morgan grinned "and then I wouldn't be breaking the trust. Topanga smiled, Tomorrow Morgan thought tomorrow my brother will get help.
