Lu drove on to White Dove Lane and checked the address she had taken with her. She found it and looked at the house. "Looked relatively normal," she thought to herself. The lawn looked like it needed to be cut and the house could use a new paint job, but other than that it looked fine. She noticed there was no car in the driveway and breathed a sigh of relief, "hopefully this means the bastard isn't home." Lu said softly. She parked her car and got out. She was very afraid of what she would find in the house.
She walked up to the door and rang the doorbell. No answer. She knocked, and no answer. She looked in the window and saw Rachel lying on the couch she looked like she was in a lot of pain. She tried the doorknob, but it was locked. Thinking quickly, Lu took a hairpin out of her hair and tried to jimmy the lock. She finally succeeded.
"Oh my god Rachel what has he done to you?" Rachel's appearance was shocking. She had two black eyes, what looked like a broken jaw, her shirt was torn and she was holding her side like her ribs were broken. She could hardly talk because of her jaw. "Lu, help me." "Rachel, we're going to the hospital now." "Can you walk?" "No" "I'll try and carry you ok?" Lu tried and finally was able to pick up the girl trying hard not to hurt her any more.
"Rachel stay with me ok? We' re going to be there really soon. You're going to be alright." Lu drove faster than she had ever driven in her life and made it to the hospital in record time.
She pulled into the ambulance bay and ran inside. "I need a gurney!" With help of Nick and others Lu got Rachel inside. "15 year old female, abuse victim, broken jaw, trauma to the face, maybe head, possible broken ribs, and GOD knows what else!" Lu was visibly shaken by Rachel's condition. Nick took control of the situation. "Let's get a head CT, X-ray of the face, jaw, chest, arms, and legs." Get her started on a line normal saline. I want a pulse and a BP stat." Lu nodded in agreement and added that she wanted stitches to the large gash she didn't notice on her stomach, which was now visible. Her mind also thought of something else. "Rachel did he hurt you in any other way? Did he." Lu was having trouble getting out the awful word. "Did he rape you?" Nick finished her sentence. Rachel was traumatized but still conscious. "No he didn't do that." "Ok sweetie we're going to take care of you don't worry." Lu told her. "Thank you." She choked out. An hour later Rachel was in her room and Marc was sitting in a chair next to her. Lu walked into the room, and sat next to Marc. "She finally fell asleep." He told her. "Good that's good she needs the rest."
"Mom, what's going to happen to her? I mean she is not going back to live in that house is she?" "No honey I will call a social worker who is going to help her find another place to live and to press charges against her jerk of a dad." Just then Rachel awoke she had heard what Lu had said. "He isn't a jerk, he's a good dad he just needs to stop drinking." Rachel said in an upset tone, she was quickly getting madder and madder. "Shh, it's ok sweetie just go back to sleep." Lu told her. She motioned for Marc to follow her out of the room.
"Mom, you are not going to listen to her are you?" "Not a chance, I'm calling Brian to come and talk to her. I'm also calling that social worker now and the Police." "Are you sure that Rachel wants the police involved?" "She doesn't have a choice Marc I am bound by law to call them in a situation like this. Why don't you go sit with her while I make these phone calls." "Ok."
"Yes hi, this is Dr. Luisa Delgado calling from Rittenhouse I'd like to speak with Dr. Brian Hunkler please." "Hold on please." A receptionist answered. "Hello this is Dr. Hunkler." "Brian, hi it's Lu." "Oh hey Lu." "I'm so sorry Brian about missing our lunch appointment but I had a good reason to. Rachel has just been admitted from severe injuries due to the abuse." "Oh my god is she alright?" "She has a broken jaw, three broken ribs, bruises all over her, among with other things. However she still won't admit the abuse or blame her father. I was hoping you would come down and try and talk to her." "Of course I will Lu I am looking forward to meeting you." "It's not me you should be worrying about." "I know, I'll be there as soon as I can." "Ok thanks Brian." "No problem, bye." "Bye." After Lu hung up she paged the social worker and called the police.
"I hope Brian can talk some sense into her." Lu muttered to herself.
