Anybody who said Beca was handling the breakup well was a liar. As Beca quickly found out, old habits died hard, and she found herself reaching for a blade more often after she and Chloe split. Her arm was littered with cuts, and she craved physical pain to mask the emotional kind, even if it were just for a couple of hours. She had terrible nightmares every night, always ending with Chloe dying a very painful death. As a result, she barely slept and had bags under her eyes. She refused to eat anymore, never feeling hungry. In short, Beca Mitchell had become a sad excuse of who she once was. Empty bottles of liquor sat on the kitchen counter and she barely left the house anymore. She didn't go to classes, and nobody had seen her since before the breakup. In short, she was a mess. After three weeks, though, people were starting to get suspicious.
