Chapter 9

My parent's visit

Nora

“I did not fall, let me be clear to you. I know he’s paying you, I can smell it. But I want to make it clear that I DID NOT FALL. DON’T ever insult my intelligence. Did you understand? He beat me and then locked me in a basement for days. With nothing, no medicine, only water, nothing! And you tell me that he brought me immediately after I fell? And above all, was he worried? I don’t want to see you here, I want another doctor. Did you hear me? After exposing the injustice I suffered, I closed my eyes and sobbed silently. They were all bought. I know it’s useless to say something, no one would do anything to help anyway. He had a lot of power and influence and I had nothing.

“Calm down, Nora, don’t get upset. We are going to leave, and you will not see us again, but calm down, you are still not well, please.” I didn’t bother answering them, I just stayed in bed with my eyes closed. I heard when they closed the door after leaving. Fortun
