"What the hell happened, Semira?!" Stephanie, my best friend, rushes into my bedroom. "You were raped?! I knew something was the matter when you didn't return my call. I was going to ask how the ball was going, but you were being raped!"
'Stephanie, that's hardly what happened. Somebody just hit me accidently." I lie, coming up with another reason that I might have passed out.
"And then I suppose your clothes fells off...accidently?" She asks.
"I don't remember."
"What the fuck do you mean you don't remember?" She practically screams. I know she's serious and very angry because she swore. Stephanie never ever swears. She's innocent, that's why we compliment each other, and that's why she's my best friend, I suppose.
"I just don't remember. I was really drunk." I lie, not wanting her to know I was drugged. Actually, I don't want her to know any of this happened.
"You were drunk? At a ball? What is with you lately? You never call me back, you never text back, you always have an excuse, and now you were drunk at a fancy ball? You have been on my radar for weird behavior lately, but I didn't know you'd be raped? Is this some stalker guy who got you alone and- why didn't you tell me?"
"Steph, I don't have a stalker. It was just some random dude."
"That goes to a ball to rape some random girl and that random girl happens to be you?" She raises her eyebrows.
That's when it hits me, why was I the random girl? Why is it me that was the victim? Is it just coincidence, because I believe there are no such thing. What if this mystery man is someone I know? Who got me alone. And it doesn't make sense that I was left here untouched on a bed, so what if I took my clothes off by myself? What if we were about to make love and he poisoned me? Then I passed out on my bed and then Aeron found me. That's precisely what must have happened. But who is this man that I know?
"Hello! I'm talking to you!" She comes over to me and sits next to me on my bed.
"I'm sorry, Stephanie. I'm sorry I haven't been responding to any of your calls or texts, I just have been really distracted."
"With what?"
"I don't remember." I say, and I honestly don't.
