CHAPTER FIFTY-FOUR

FAYE

She'd woken up depressed. Faye was in hysterical tears by the time Scotty came out of the bathroom. "My Fairy, what's wrong?" Scotty asked. He pulled her into his arms as she continued to cry. She wasn't totally sure. That happened sometimes, but Faye usually covered it well. For the last year or so, she'd had an easy explanation.

"I miss my dad," she said, but that was only part of it. She couldn't really identify the rest.

"Oh, Faye..." Scotty held her tighter. "The Hall of Fame was rough. I'm sorry. I know it brought a lot of the grief back up."

Faye nodded, accepting that this must be the cause of her issues. It made sense. Of course, she'd had this happen even before her father died, but everyone got depressed sometimes, and she always bounced back really fast. It was worse in times of stress. Faye was positive the Hall of Fame had set her off, between inducting her father and Saraya. It had just been too much.

"How can I help?" Scotty asked.

"You already are," Faye told him. Suddenly, she needed to kiss him. She pressed her lips against his, then began moving faster. She needed more. She had Scotty stripped before he even seemed to register she was undressing him. She pulled her own clothes off and straddled him. Faye had a wild side, but it didn't usually come out so strongly around Scotty. She had been controlling it for too long. It felt good to let go.

"Jesus, Faye," Scotty moaned. He could barely catch his breath. That turned Faye on more and she smiled wickedly.

Two hours later, Faye was still ready to go. Scotty, however, looked exhausted. She knew they had to be at the arena soon, but part of her didn't care. She was just wrestling Jordan. She knew they weren't going to give her title away to Jordan and it was going to be a pretty short match. It hardly mattered.

"M'Lady... Much as it pains me to say, we need to get ready soon," Scotty said gently.

Faye sighed. "Okay," she agreed reluctantly. Then she added, "Want to join me in the shower?"

Scotty laughed. "I suspect that's not the best way for us to make sure we're ready on time."

He was right. Faye and Scotty took separate showers and got dressed. They arrived at the arena shortly after. That was when Faye spotted Ginny, or more importantly, the very shiny jewelry on her finger.

"What's that?" Faye demanded.

Ginny shrugged. "Gabe and I eloped last night," she said casually.

"You did what?" Faye asked in shock.

"Seriously?" Keith asked.

Randi squeaked in excitement and flung her arms around Ginny. "I have another sister now!" She declared. "I'm so happy for you guys! This rocks!"

"Congratulations!" Scotty said with a smile.

"About damn time," Molly added.

"Congrats, bro," Keith said to Gabe.

"Team Gabe won!" Nicky said, patting him on the back.

"Oh my God, guys! Finally!" Lucas added. "This is great news!"

"You did this just so you'd be married first, didn't you?" Faye demanded.

Ginny stared at her and Faye realized she probably shouldn't have said this out loud. "This had nothing to do with you, Faye," she said harshly.

"But you didn't even invite anyone!"

"I just wanted it to be me and Gabe."

"But I'm your sister!"

"Gabe's sister wasn't there, either."

"But you've known me longer!"

Randi's excitement faded away. She looked like Faye had slapped her. Molly glared at her. "Randi was busy being tortured and poisoned during the years Gabe didn't know her," she said angrily. "You were safe, protected, and sheltered because Ginny made sure no one ever hurt you. Watch what you fucking say, Faye, and don't you dare act like Randi doesn't matter as much as you do."

"I didn't mean it like that," Faye insisted. "But I should have been there."

"This isn't about you, Faye. For once in our lives, this one thing does not revolve around you. It's about me and Gabe, and that's it," Ginny said. She stormed off before Faye could say more. Gabe hurried after her.

"That was bratty even for you, Faye," Molly said.

"Ginny's the brat! What about our Mom? Think how she'll feel!" Faye protested.

"The only thing that matters is how Ginny and Gabe feel," Keith said. "Come on, Faye. You're being ridiculous."

"Scotty's on my side. Right?" She demanded.

"I love you, my fairy," Scotty said, "but Ginny and Gabe had the right to get married however they wanted to. I get why you're upset, but-"

"Seriously?" Faye asked. Her own fiance had betrayed her. "Fuck you guys." She ran off, not knowing where she was heading or what she was going to do. She really wanted to hit something. That was all she knew.

MOLLY

She'd seen enough. Faye hadn't acted this bratty since her NXT days, and Molly was positive she needed to be put in her place. "Shane, I'm changing a match on the card," she told him as she saw him walking by.

"What? Molly, we only have a couple of hours until the show," Shane protested.

"Faye's behavior today tells me she isn't mature enough to hold the title."

"She's had it for several months, Molly."

"And now she no longer deserves it. She just proved she's nothing but a toddler."

"So you want to give it to Jordan? She's not ready yet."

"No..."

"Pulling Jordan off the match would be unfair to her."

"The match will still happen, but then Ginny will come out. We'll give her the rematch she never got... Ginny vacated due to injury. She never lost the title. And everyone loves watching those two wrestle each other."

"Okay... It could work, but what did Faye do?"

"She threw a fit Ginny got married without telling anyone."

"Ginny and Gabe got married? Good for them! I knew Gabe would pull it off."

Molly laughed. "Yeah, and Faye made it about her. She also acted like my sister doesn't count as Gabe's family."

"She did what?"

"I am seriously debating forking her over that. Anyway, she's acting like a spoiled brat, and what better way to put her back in her place than to have her sister take away her shiny title?"

"Normally, I don't let the personal drama of your stable dictate things... But it's time for a change, and the fans love Ginny as the champion every time. We'll do it."

"Don't tell Faye. Let's give her a taste of what I did to Trixie."

"Fine, but I'm warning Jordan to run when Ginny's music hits. I don't want her to get stuck between them when they're angry."

"That's fair." Molly nodded, pleased with her decision and ready to go find Ginny to tell her the good news.

GABE

He was sitting backstage watching Ginny finish fixing her hair from the Hall of Fame recognition during intermission to functional hair for her match when Randi joined him. "Gabe..." She said cautiously.

"What's up?" Gabe asked her.

"I..." She paused. Gabe could tell she was upset by something.

"What's on your mind, Kiddo?"

"I... I matter, right?"

He was surprised by her question. "Of course you matter."

"It's just... I know I haven't known you my entire life like Faye's known Ginny, but... I still count, right? I'm still really your sister?" She was crying now. Randi was usually so upbeat. This scared him.

"Of course you are! You count just as much as Faye does!" He hugged her.

"You count more," Ginny said suddenly. She looked furious. "Don't you ever let my brat of a sister make you think otherwise." She wrapped Randi in her arms, too. As she soothed Randi, she looked at Gabe and mouthed, I'm going to kill Faye. He knew she meant it.

GINNY

A small part of Ginny felt she might be being unfair to her sister, but as she watched the way Faye was going out of her way to flaunt her dominance over Jordan and humiliate the girl, she knew it was the right move. The brat had even refused to join her and their mother for the Hall of Fame recognition at intermission. She'd decided to get ready for her match instead, breaking their mother's heart.

Dad would be so disappointed in her, Ginny thought as she watched Jordan tap her sister's arm to signal she needed to let her go. Faye didn't loosen her grip.

"What the hell?" Ginny wondered aloud.

"She's hurting her," Keith said in alarm.

"Should I go out early?" Ginny asked.

Molly paused. "No, Jordan just tapped. She wasn't supposed to submit, but the referee called the match. What the hell is wrong with your sister?" Molly asked.

"No idea."

"Go kick her ass for that, okay?"

"You know I will."

As Ginny's music started, she raced out, not giving Faye a chance to escape. Jordan rolled out of the ring. She looked scared and the way she was rubbing her shoulder, Ginny knew it wasn't just selling. Faye had hurt her. Ginny tried to flash her a reassuring smile discretely before she attacked her sister. Molly appeared on the Titantron.

"It's come to my attention that Persephone, who never technically lost the title, has yet to have a chance to get it back. I've decided to correct that immediately. Ring the bell!" Molly said. The fans began cheering, excited to watch the sisters compete for the title.

Faye glared at Ginny. "What the fuck is this?" She demanded. Ginny was surprised she'd cursed so openly. That was not allowed. She'd be fined for it.

"You need to be taught a lesson, Little Sister," Ginny taunted her. She was a professional. She could stay in character, even if she was genuinely angry with Faye. She could sell her anger like a promo. "There's only one Rhodes worthy of that championship, and it's not you!" Ginny proceeded to hit a DDT on Faye.

Faye tried to get hits in, but she wasn't successful. She swung wildly, clearly trying desperately to escape from her sister. Ginny could tell Faye was actually trying to hurt her, especially when, in complete desperation, Faye bit her wrist. Ginny was able to pull her hand free quickly, but now she was convinced that Faye had lost her damn mind. Ginny swept Faye's legs out from beneath her before climbing up onto the top rope. When Faye stood up, Ginny hit a hurricanrana. Faye didn't get back up as she pinned her.

When the referee handed Ginny the title, Faye stood and started screaming. The temper tantrum was genuine. Ginny hadn't seen her throw a fit like that since they'd both been at NXT and Faye didn't get her way. Saraya had knocked the bratty behavior out of her sister, but now it seemed to have returned in full force. Ginny remembered how badly Faye had ultimately reacted when Ginny had been put in New Legacy and she'd been left behind at NXT. Paul and Corri had agreed that Faye was way too green and far too immature to handle the main roster. If Saraya hadn't gotten her into shape when she took over, she would probably still be stuck in Kiddy Prison down at NXT.

Faye lunged at her. The referee got between them and Faye tried to hit him. Knowing she wasn't going to stop, Ginny moved the referee out of harm's way and superkicked her sister before hitting another DDT. She called to the side of the ring for security. Molly had specifically left the Nation at ringside in case Ginny hadn't stopped attacking Faye, but ironically, it was Faye who needed to be stopped.

The fans ate it up, thinking this was all part of the show. Lucky and Danny restrained Faye and dragged her backstage. Ginny celebrated her victory, but she was worried about Faye. This behavior was extreme even for her.

SCOTTY

When Faye got backstage, Scotty rushed to her side. "Are you okay?" He asked. Faye had just acted like a crazy woman. Danny and Lucky looked reluctant to let her go, but Faye wasn't struggling anymore. They released her.

"How could you do that to me?" Faye demanded as she spotted Molly.

"You showed me you don't deserve that title," Molly said.

"You made me look pathetic! You planned this! You guys were probably plotting against me this entire time!"

Scotty recognized paranoid rantings when he heard them. His mother had done that several times over the years when her bipolar disorder was out of control. Growing up like that had made Scotty and his brother very sympathetic to Nicky's battle with the same demons.

"Faye... My fairy... This wasn't a plot," he said gently. "They just felt your behavior today wasn't the way a champion should behave."

"You don't get it! My sister's out to destroy me. She hates me!" Faye insisted.

"Ginny doesn't hate you. She's your sister. She loves you."

"We're not like you and Toby. She hates me. She's trying to make me look bad."

Scotty felt an ache in his chest. This was too familiar, but there was nothing wrong with Faye. She never acted like this. Maybe she was just upset...

"Faye, honey, come on. Let's just go, okay?" Scotty asked gently. He led Faye away, relieved when she followed him.

"They hate me. All of them," she told him.

"That's not true, my fairest fairy... No one hates you. And I love you," he said soothingly.

"Scotty... I really can't deal with this. That title was mine... They had no right to embarrass me like that." She started to cry.

"Faye, it's just business. You've had the title for months. It was time to drop it anyway."

"But like that?"

"Molly and Shane must have felt it was the right move. Behaviors have consequences."

"You knew, didn't you?" Her anger was returning.

"No. I had no idea."

She took a breath. "I just... I hate them all!"

"You're just upset, Faye."

"I should just quit! See how they feel then!"

"Faye, please, calm down. Just take a night to try and think about this."

"No! They screwed me over!" They reached the hotel and headed up to their room. Once they got there, Faye began to pace.

"Honey, if you just get some rest-" Scotty began to say.

"Fuck you! Rest won't change this!" Faye picked up a nearby pair of stilettos and before Scotty could register what was happening, she flung them at his head. Faye had always had a good arm. She never missed.

The pain registered before Scotty really understood what had happened. He touched the side of his head, near his temple, and felt moisture. You're bleeding, he registered.

"Faye Marie Runnels!" A voice shouted. "What the hell do you think you're doing?"

"Mom, I..." Faye started. She stared at Scotty in horror. "Oh my God... Scotty, I'm sorry..."

"You hit me," Scotty said, still stunned.

"I didn't mean to," Faye insisted.

"You don't miss..."

Suddenly, Faye was mad again. "Really? Let's test that!"

She tried to run at him, but Brandi grabbed her. She literally dragged her out of the room as she demanded, "Have you lost your damn mind?"

Scotty was trembling. On some level, he realized he was in shock. Faye's behavior seemed so out of nowhere, he felt like he'd been hit with an RKO. The worst part was, it was all too familiar to him. He'd seen swings like that, complete with violent outbursts before. His mother had them every time her bipolar disorder acted up.

No, Scotty scolded himself. She's not bipolar. She'd have been diagnosed by now. She's twenty-three... He knew, however, that it was entirely possible no one had caught it yet. Bipolar disorder was tricky. It could be chalked up to a lot of things, especially if she worked hard to hide it. Faye was an excellent actress.

Scotty touched his head again. He was still bleeding. Uncertain of what else he could do, he walked away in search of his brother. Toby would know what to do.

FAYE

She'd hit Scotty. What was wrong with her? Suddenly, her rage vanished and was replaced with grief. Faye began sobbing.

"Faye, what the hell is going on?" Her mother asked. "Are you on something?"

She'd had a few drinks the night before while Scotty was busy, but she certainly wasn't drunk now. "No, Mom... I'm not drunk," she said between sobs.

"No, I meant drugs, Faye. Are you high right now? Because that's how you're acting."

She couldn't believe this. "Mom!" She said in horror. "I've never done drugs in my life! Do you honestly think I'd start after what happened to Marco?" She began sobbing harder at her own words.

"Faye... Honey... I'm sorry, but I don't know what to think. You're acting crazy."

"I'm sorry, Mom... I don't know what's wrong with me."

Her mother softened and tried to comfort her. "It's alright, honey... It's probably the stress. But you need to apologize to Scotty. You hurt him."

"I know... I was just so angry... I..." Faye sighed.

"Faye, maybe you should talk to someone-"

Faye caught the implication. Her mother thought she was nuts. "I don't need therapy. I'm fine."

"You attacked your fiance with stilettos. You are not fine."

"You're just mad because I acted emotionally and couldn't be perfect like your precious Ginny!"

"Faye! What are you talking about?" Her mother looked stunned.

"You love Ginny more! Everyone does! You're just like the rest of them!"

"Baby, that's not true-"

"Shut up! Stop lying to me!" Faye shoved her mother hard against the wall. Her mother stared at her in shock for a moment, but when Faye tried to bash her head against the wall for this betrayal, her mother snapped out of it. She moved out of the way and struggled to fight Faye off. She finally freed herself and ran down the hall.

Faye watched as Conor came running back with her mother. Devon was right behind him. "She's lost it!" Her mother said to Conor. "Please help me."

Conor approached Faye cautiously. "Everything okay there, Fairy Girl?" He asked.

Faye relaxed. Conor was not a judgmental asshole. He'd be nice to her. "She's freaking out because she wants me to act like Ginny," Faye explained practically.

"Now why would she want that? You're much sweeter and bubblier," Conor said gently.

"Exactly! What's so great about my sister? She only thinks about herself." Faye started laughing, though she wasn't sure what was suddenly so funny. "You like me, right Conor?"

"I do, sweetheart," he said with his easy smile.

"No one else does..." Faye suddenly started crying again.

"Is she on something?" Devon asked softly. Faye barely heard him.

"I don't know," her mother replied as Faye cried into Conor's shirt. "She says she's not, but how else do you explain this?"

"Shhhh, Faye," Conor said gently. "Everything will be okay now."

She believed him for some reason. Conor was trustworthy.

"Molly's match is up next," Devon said softly.

"Molly! That bitch humiliated me!" Faye cried out, rage hitting her again. She tried to lunge at Devon, but he ducked. For a stoner, he had quick reflexes.

"Easy now," Conor said gently. He pulled her back into his arms, calming her again. "Go watch the match. Then bring her to me so I can talk to her... But let her have her moment first."

"Conor-" Devon began.

"I've got this, Dev. It can wait a little while. Let her enjoy her night first."

"She's unstable, Con-"

"She likes me. Right, Faye?"

Faye laughed. "Of course I do."

"We'll be fine, Devon. We're gonna play games on Faye's phone. Does that sound good, Faye? Just me, you, and a bunch of apps?"

It sounded like heaven. "Okay," she said.

"See? We're good here. Go."

"What about me?" Faye's mother asked.

"Stay. Just in case... But at a distance," Conor said. Her mother didn't argue.

Faye relaxed as Conor pulled up an app with a lot of bright colors and sparkles. If this didn't calm her nerves, nothing would.

MOLLY

She was in gorilla. Keith gave her a kiss as her music began and Molly headed out to the ring. She made a big deal out of stopping to appreciate the ladders along the ramp, then pointed to the championship belt suspended above the ring. When Jeff's music hit, he ran out and actually jumped onto one of the ladders, bopping along to his music as he enjoyed his moment. The bell rang and the match began.

Molly immediately dove out of the ring for a ladder. Jeff chased after her, but Molly hit Dirty Deeds on the ramp and grabbed a ladder, getting back into the ring. She set it up and started climbing, but Jeff knocked the ladder down. Molly jumped off, landing on the ropes like a cat.

Jeff grabbed another ladder and set it up, putting the first ladder through it to create a ramp from the ropes to the new ladder. He hit Molly with a Twist of Fate and picked her up, putting her on the flat ladder. Molly freed herself and superkicked Jeff before putting him on the flat ladder. She climbed up the other one before moonsaulting off and putting both Jeff and herself through the flat ladder.

Molly heard Jeff wince. They'd planned the spot, but that didn't mean it didn't hurt. She rolled over, trying to free herself. "You okay?" She asked. Jeff nodded subtly.

Molly stood and rolled out of the ring. She grabbed a third ladder and brought it into the match. She set it up and began climbing, but jumped down as Jeff started to move. He was limping. That didn't stop him from coming after her. He hit another Twist of Fate. Molly stayed down. Jeff climbed up onto the ropes for Whisper in the Wind. He landed on her perfectly. Molly didn't move as Jeff started climbing the ladder. She let him get close before grabbing his legs and pulling him off the ladder. Soon, they were climbing again in unison, racing to the top. Molly got her hands on the title a split second before Jeff did. She was about to unhook it when he hit a Twist of Fate off of the ladder.

Molly was able to land safely, but it still hurt a bit. She stayed down as Jeff struggled to stand up. He got to the ladder and started climbing. Molly began moving, setting up a ladder beside his. She got to the top as he nearly unhooked the title, then hit an RKO. Jeff didn't move as she got back up. She started climbing. She reached the top, grabbed the belt, and unhooked it.

The bell rang and Molly was announced the winner. She climbed down, clutching her belt, and knelt beside Jeff. She helped him to his feet before hugging him. Molly might be a heel, but Jeff was a legend, and he'd just given her the biggest honor ever. She'd defeated Jeff Hardy in a ladder match.

Nera and Maxel ran out to help Jeff backstage. Keith came out to celebrate Molly's win with her. They walked backstage together. Only then did she notice Devon.

"Awesome match, Moxley," he says.

"Thanks... What's wrong?" She could see in his eyes that he was worried about something.

"Conor needs to talk to you."

"I'll catch up with you guys later," Molly told Keith. She followed Devon back to the hotel.

Faye sat giggling as she played with Conor's cell phone. "Give me a minute, Fairy Girl," Conor said as he spotted Molly. He stood and joined her and Devon. "Go stay with them," Conor told Devon. "Brandi might need backup."

Devon nodded and walked away. "What's going on?" Molly asked Conor.

"Faye doesn't do drugs, correct?" Conor asked.

"Right."

"Why didn't you tell us she was bipolar?"

Molly stared at him. "What?" She asked in confusion.

"Molly, she's been rapid cycling so fast, she makes Nicky look completely stable... Like the picture of perfect mental health."

"But she..." Molly hesitated. "She passed every psych eval, but those just check if you're stable to wrestle... If she wasn't having an episode, or if she pulled a Faye and charmed her way out of it... Shit. I never considered it, but she could be." She thought back to her time at NXT. Faye had only officially been there for a month or so when Paul formed New Legacy and she got left behind. Molly knew from talking to Ginny that Faye had been furious Ginny got to go to the main roster and she'd been left out. She'd apparently behaved so poorly afterward that Paul and Corri had warned her she was going to force them to fire her. They'd really only kept her at NXT because she was Cody's daughter. Even as her wrestling improved and she showed how talented she really was, her attitude was a problem. Her "mood swings" were legendary... But what if they hadn't just been normal mood swings? The behavior had only stopped when Saraya took over NXT and made it clear she wasn't going to put up with it. Faye had been a model citizen after that, but Molly knew how good at acting Faye was. Had she been hiding the signs of her illness for all this time?

"Shit... How did I not see this before?" Molly wondered aloud.

"Easy, Little Moxley," Conor replied. "You guys see it with Nicky because the guy's an open book. He can't hide anything from you. Faye keeps a lot in. She hides behind a cute smile and sarcastic comments... But she's in a major episode now, and she can't hide it because the paranoia is acting up. She thinks everyone's out to get her. She genuinely believes Ginny's turned everyone against her, even you."

"Her behavior turned me against her, not Ginny."

"She's irrational. Brandi ran to get me because Faye assaulted her. And she apparently used Scotty's head for target practice."

"What? Is he okay?"

"Brandi doesn't know. She dragged Faye away from him as soon as she saw that."

"We're supposed to fire her. We have a zero tolerance policy for domestic violence, especially since Trixie and Brandon. I made the mistake of letting Brandon get off with a suspension and he ended up back here and made everything worse."

"She's sick, Molly. This is different."

"Until she's diagnosed, we don't know that. Shane will fire her."

"No!" A voice said. Molly spun around to see Scotty. "Don't fire her. Please, Molly. She's just upset."

"Scotty, she hit you." She gently moved the hair he'd obviously intentionally swept over the side of his face aside and saw a cut with one stitch in it. "And you got stitches!"

"Just one... Toby took care of it." Scotty sighed. "She was upset. She threw her stilettos at me... I'm sure she was aiming for the wall."

"You know damn well Faye has an amazing pitching arm. She never misses what she's aiming at. She was the star of her high school softball team. She brags about it all the time... Scotty, she hit you on purpose."

He looked broken. "I love her, Molly. Please just give her a chance to calm down. She's Cody's daughter. She's your friend."

"Look, Faye saved my life from a couple of Brandon's crazy fans. I know she's my friend... But she assaulted three people tonight because she's throwing a tantrum. I can't support that behavior. She's going way too far."

"Three?" Scotty asked.

"You, her mother, and Jordan. I'm not including Ginny because Ginny attacked her as scripted and caught Faye off-guard."

"She was in a match with Jordan."

"A match that she went way off-book during. She really hurt her, and it was obviously done on purpose. And she hit you. Shane will demand we fire her."

"Please, Molly... She... She needs help." Scotty had tears in his eyes.

"Scotty, she attacked you," Molly gently pointed out again.

"And if she ever does it again, I'll walk away. I would never hit her, but I won't let her hit me, either... But please, Molly... She isn't okay. She is acting..." He hesitated.

"Bipolar?"

"Like my mom." He shook his head. "Suspend her if you have to, but once she's diagnosed... Please just help her. She needs help."

Molly's heart broke for him. Scotty had been her friend since she'd been on the indies. She hated seeing him so upset, especially since it took a lot to break him. "I'll talk to Shane," she said with a sigh. "We'll check her into the hospital and force a real psych eval. If she gets diagnosed, I'll see what can be done, but if she doesn't prove she's trying to get better, she's done."

Scotty nodded. "Thank you."

"Scotty... If Faye is actually bipolar, you need to think about whether or not you can handle that. Staying with her may be too hard for you."

"I can't leave her. I love her."

"I know you do... But you grew up with a bipolar mother. You know how hard it can be to live with. No one would blame you if you couldn't do it." She took his hand. "Just promise you'll really think about this, okay? You have to take care of yourself."

"I know... I'm going to call my father. If anyone understands this, it's him."

"Okay... Call Phil, and if you need him around, I'll make it happen." She was already running down a list of how complicated that might be. Phil liked to throw lawsuits around, but Scotty needed him. She'd figure out what to do later. Right now, she needed to get Faye to the hospital.

"We'll take care of her," Molly promised. She mentally began preparing a list of everything she'd need to do to pull this off without the dirtsheets finding out. As mad as she was at Faye, she didn't want this ending up out there for fans to tear apart. Faye's mental state was none of their business.

Major life crisis? Just another day in New Legacy, people, she said. Nothing to see here. She sighed, knowing she had a long night ahead of her.
