Capítulo 25: CHAPTER 25

"Lucy."

I woke up and saw my hands were already wrapped by a gauze bandage. I looked outside and saw the sun's so bright.

"Your eyes are swollen. You want to wear this?", Josh is handing me a sunglasses.

He combed my hair and dragged them behind my ears.

"Rain's inside that house. She's telling the elders inside that their granddaughter's already here."

"Are we at the Dawson's residence?", I asked and he nodded.

"Is your head aching? You fainted."

"I'm alright."

He looked at me and I can see the pity in his eyes. I don't want him looking at me like this.

"Are you going to leave me because I already know the truth?", he widened his eyes with my question.

"Why would I?"

"You said you'll save me from Kelly. I am safe now."

He fixed my bag and picked up my things.

"No. I wouldn't do that."

"Why?"

"You're the only one I have. Actually you and my grandmother but yes, I won't leave you."

"How can you guarantee me that?"
