When the telephone rang that Wednesday morning, Ana was not expecting the call to change her life forever. Picking up the phone and not recognizing the number, "Hello?"
"Hello, is this Anastasia Steele?"
"Yes, how can I help you?" Ana answered, she could tell something was wrong. She had that certain feeling inside like deja vu.
"I'm sorry to inform you but there has been an accident. Your father Ray Steele was hit by a drunk driver going the wrong way." Ana took a deep breath, 'no this couldn't be happening, I just graduated. He was going to teach me so much more.' Before her mind could continue spewing out thoughts the officer on the other line interrupted her, "Ma'am, I know this is hard for you but we are going to have to ask you to come down to the station to identify the body."
That was it, what ever emotions Ana thought she was holding in before came flying out. "Um ok, I'll be right down." After they exchanged the location and phone numbers Ana hung up and stood up from the couch she was sitting at. Rubbing the smeared mascara away from her eyes she walks to the door, grabs her keys, and drives to the police station.
Arriving at the station, she was approached by the police officer that told her the awful news on the phone. Each and every step Ana took a little piece of her knew she was walking towards her inevitable new future, with no dad, no more spring fishing trips, and she would have no one if one day needed someone to escort her down the aisle. When the approached the morgue the police officer stepped inside and walked over to a body with a white sheet over the poor unfortunate soul underneath who they claimed to be Ray.
"Now Miss Steele, I want you to take a good look and take your time..."
Before she could go on Ana interrupted her, "Can you just pull the sheet back, so I can see if its him or not!" She demanded, she felt bad for yelling but it had to be done, this is taking too long for her patience. The mortician pulled back the sheet, and there he was Ray. Ana's air got stuck in her throat and so did her breakfast. She ran over to the sink in the far left corner and threw up whatever what was left in her stomach.
The officer walked over to her and started rubbing circles in her back, "I am so sorry for your loss honey." Ana continued to bawl until there was nothing else to come out of her eyes.
"I'm sorry I threw up in your sink, and yes before you ask that was my step father Ray." Without saying another word she pulled herself together and walked outside to her car. She put her car in drive and drove straight to her apartment. It was like she was on auto pilot, not caring about going through red lights or cutting people off. Who was she kidding, If Ray wasn't in this world with her should she really try her hardest to stay here too if he wasn't.
Pulling into the garage of her building and parking in her usual spot, Ana took the key out of the ignition and just sat there. She was numb, she had no stamina to go into her apartment and look at things that reminded her of Ray. Before she could go into a deeper depression she took the key she was holding and dug it into her arm, she didn't want to die, she just didn't want to hurt anymore.
She did two cuts and stopped because her phone started to ring, she groaned when the last person she ever wanted to talk to was calling her. "Ana, I know you don't want to talk to me right now after what I did but I need you." Before she could even talk Christian cut her off, "Ana, please I need you."
Ana started bawling again, "Christian, please I've had an awful day and I just need to be alone right now." Before he could protest and ask what was wrong she hung up on him. She looked down at the key, and hated what she was about to do, she made another cut and cried. She was tired, so so tired. She walked out of the drivers seat and opened up the door to her backseat. She stepped in and laid down across the back. She just wanted to sleep and forget.
She must have slept for quite awhile because she heard tapping on the window. Ana woke up suddenly and saw Christian and Taylor staring at her with worry. "Ana, open the door baby. Please open up." She rubbed her eyes and looked down at her arms and saw the scratches and dry blood, she knew this was it, Christian was going to flip. She took a deep breath and opened the door.
