*5 unanswered calls*

i pace back and forth my room, worried about my girlfriend. her message was so odd, and out of nowhere. it seems like she's in trouble. she didn't try to call me though, she only texted. she said she was with barrett. maybe i should try and call her. it's only around 11pm there, she's usually still awake. i decide to try barrett. i feel sweaty and my stomach and head hurt from thinking all the possibilities.

"stefania! you're awake." barrett answers.

"where is danielle? is she okay? is everything okay? where is my girlfriend? are you with her?" i say quickly.

"she's asleep right now. i think this is something she needs to tell you herself." she tells me.

"barrett what is going on." i say extremely worried.

"should i wake her? she needs her sleep but i don't want to make you wait all day."

"i just want to know my bambina is okay." i hear barrett breathing on the other end. moments later i hear her whispering danielles name and danielle wakes up gasping for air.

"it's okay babe, it's just me. stefanías on the phone. i didn't want to make her wait all day. she's really worried." i hear barrett tell her. i listen as danielles breathing gets less heavy. moments later the phone is handed to her.

"baby?" she says and her voice sounds fragile.

"bambina. oh bambina i've been so worried. what's going on? is everything okay? are you okay?" she pauses for a moment.

"there's something i never told you. i didn't think it mattered. but now i need too. before i say this, i love you. i love you so much stefania."

"i love you too bambina." i say confused. "is it bad?"

"i'll just start from the beginning i guess." her voice is weak and my heart is breaking it her already. "way before we met, i was like 19 i think. i met this guy. he was sweet and charming. we dated for about 2 years before he asked me to marry him. of course i said yes. i was young and stupid and i thought i loved him." she pauses giving me a moment to take it in. i didn't know she was married before? i don't know why she didn't tell me. "i know you are wondering why i didn't tell you, but you'll find that out soon." she read my mind. "he was great. we had a beautiful wedding and an amazing honeymoon to the bahamas. never did i think at 22 i would have a husband. but he got comfortable." her voice cracks. she takes a deep breath. "he changed. his charming and sweet act was torn down. he was mean. he acted mean towards me, and sweet towards everyone else. i didn't know what to do really. it was like that for about a year before i decided to tell someone. i happened to go out with barrett for lunch one day and i told her how i felt. she gave me some advice and when i got home that evening my husband was furious. he said i was trying to leave him, that my friends were brainwashing me. he- he." she stops and i hear barrett comforting her in the back.
