Elizabeth P.O.V

as i struggled to breathe i felt an arm snake around my waist pulling me up i felt light headed not realizing i put my head onto the persons shoulder who just saved my life hugging them tightly "oh my goodness Maya are you okay?" i heard Abby say softly

 i couldn't form words to speak i just nodded my head i looked to see how i was holding onto Mr. Handsome, he pulled me to the stairs of the pool still holding me not letting me go

 "get them the towels!!" hearing Abby scream at the workers

i shivered feeling the cold wind hit onto my wet clothes,  i stood up and Abby gave me her hand to hold as i walked out the pool feeling the clothes cling to my body soon i was covered by a towel Abby took me to a guest room that i usually sleep in 

"get in the shower while i get you the clothes" Abby said while i nodded "listen" she said holding the room door and i looked at her " I'm Sorry about my friend, he didn't know that you don't know how to swim" i nodded but bust out laughing as my work was still on her face and she shook her head rolling her eyes and walked out the room 

i entered the familiar bathroom i still remember the day Abby and i became friends, i was in Saara's shop closing up, getting ready to leave and Abby's car had broken down right outside 

at that time i was physically hit by that monster so i was in a lot of pain while walking "hey, are you okay?" Abby as gorgeous as she is asking me "yeah" i struggled to raise my voice and soon i had blacked out, then i woke up in this very room i found out her house was really close to mine and soon before we know it we talked and instantly became friends its been a couple of months to our friendship but it feels like we have known each other for years.

i removed the clothes looking at the reflection staring back the wet black hair, the tanned skin tone, the scars of previous acne, the marks of the beatings over my body feeling disgusted i looked away, i hated myself more than anything.  i didn't have the sexy skinny body nor did i have a beautiful face nor do i have the education nor wealth and even health is an issue and i don't have any family,  walking to the shower opened the hot water, i felt overwhelmed and began to cry and sat down 

why? why do i have to go through so much? 

what wrong did i ever do to anyone to go through this?

my mother left me why? and that even with a monster 

sobbing i shook my head, why? why wont this pain in my chest just end.... the constant feeling of disgust, i don't want this life..... 

with the remaining energy i stood washing myself and scrubbing hardly wanting the scars to go away but when i realized it wont go i started to sob again and after what felt like hours i couldn't  cry any longer, i closed the water and wrapped my body with one towel and the other with another towel walking out the bathroom 

i looked on the bed and didn't see any clothes i frowned wondering why Abby hasn't got me the clothes i sat on the bed and decided to dry my hair with the towel from the side as i was doing so i heard the door open 

"took you long enough" i said flipping my hair and stood only to see Mr. Handsome and i gasped holding my body towel tighter "what?......" i questioned gaping 

only to find him staring me at me making me more anxious,  i walked towards him glaring i saw the clothes in his hand i put one of my hand out indicating for him to hand me the clothes but he only stared into my eyes making me feel like he is reading me like an open book

it looked like he wanted to say something but he didn't so i looked away and he put the wrapped clothes in my hand and i waited for him to leave and suddenly i felt annoyed so without saying anything i pushed him out and shut the door on his face

i turned wide eyed feeling amused like' what in the world just happened?'
