I wondered how a couple punches can effect me health wise, I hate the memory I got of the punches more than the pain,

(BOOM BOOM BOOM)

My father was punching my stomach constantly, but father fa-father why? Ouch!

I shivered at the memory, I looked back at the doctor who was taking little bottles out of his cabin, here drink this; it will make you sleepy at first but it will help the pain go away.

"right ok"

I drank the bitter thick liquid and felt like gagging, he lead me to the bed and patted my shoulder.

"I am sorry for everything but for now, go to sleep." He said soflty

I went on my side and put both my hands under my head and closed my eyes.

"mama! You came!"

" I wouldn't miss anything for you birthday dear!"

"I went to hug mother but instead she started shaking my shoulder with the look of hatred in her face"

"Mila! Mila!" Linda was shaking my shoulder, I opened my eyes and her eyes had a worried look in it.

"What happened?" I asked with my voice barley hearable.

"You have been sleeping for 2 days since the doctor brought you here, and captain said that if you wouldn't wake up today he will throw you in the sea, (she began to cry) and I don't want to be here alone Mila, IM scared I act good so they wont hurt me, but you cant leave Mila! You cant!"(sob sob)

I get up and hug her tightly

"Im so sorry linda, I am really really ( I begin to cry with her).

"Mila! You woke up! You scared me dear! I didn't think your body would have such a reaction to the medicine, it accepted it way to fast! Im so sorry Mila"

"No donctor you tried to save me, don't apologize that's embarrassing. Plus I feel strong as ever. I stand up feeling pain in my legs but didn't want to hurt doctors feelings. Boy Im hungry is it dinner yet?

"Linda chuckles wiping her tear away , its not even breakfast yet."

"Hey I would love to wash up, I force my self to walk straight and once I reach Edwardos room I don't open the door, what if he wanted me to die? What if he is glad Im gone and will be disappointed to see me again, what if-, the door opened revealing Edwardo, once he saw me he pulled me into what felt like a hug, but didn't last more than a second.

"I- uh nnn"

"go wash up, you look worse than you always do" he said and walked away.

Ouch, I quickly washed up and when I got out there was a towel on the bed, but instead of another blouse my dress was sitting there, but it was different, instead of ripped up the bottom part of the dress were sewed as sleeves from my shoulder down, and the dress landed right on my knees, also the heel part of my heels were cut and it was bent to fit the lower heel. I looked in the mirror and it looked great! I wonder who did this for me? I headed for the door and before I opened it Edwardo already opened it hitting my head.

"Ouch, will you quit hitting me? I looked into his glaring eyes and then said p-please?"

"His eyes turned nice and he looked me up and down, there he said you look like a clean dog."

His comments are so cold, he reminds me of my father.

"stop acting like a dog you b*tch!, dad! Stop!

My father was beating Rita for defending me when I accidently caught him with other women. I would have never been alive, if my father hasn't died of a drug overdose. I looked back at him, I hated him so much! How can someone be so cruel! I walk past him brushing my shoulder against his arm so he can understand that I don't appreciate his nasty comments, but before I reached the kitchen he grabbed my arm, pulled me back and looked into my eyes, gentle eyes. Who gives him the right to grab me like that then treat me like trash?

"I pulled away and walked away but when I looked back he was looking at the floor, almost in shame.

"Well, well ,well look who tried on my dress!" Linda says cheerfully

"Oh Linda that was you! You amazing! How did I never know of such talent! And the shoes just wow! Its like there originally flats!

"She smiled back at me"

"Nathan looked at her and smiled, hes so sweet to her and he hasn't touched her roughly once, even when I was tied up he held her arm gently. He treats her like she's a fragile gem. Edwardo treats me like I'm a nasty dog. Can anyone spot the difference. I sit down in a seat that has not seat next to theirs so Edwardo won't sit next to me. I eat my plate and finish but notice that Edwardo didn't come for breakfast. I kept unintentionally looking at his seat but I stopped when Nathan caught me and grinned.
