The first hours

This is my story. I promise not to hide anything from you. You'll probably laugh first and then cry... Don't say I didn't warn you.

Carina came running to the emergency room.

- "Where is she? Where is she?" she asked to Dr. Bailey.

-"she went for a CT scan and MRI with Dr. Shepherd... Carina, she... She's unconscious. Since we found her."

- "What? What the hell happened?!"

Andy came up behind his friend.

- "Carina?"

- "Andy, Andy, what happened?"

-"I don't know exactly yet. We were called to the park next to you. Travis and Vic were on it. Carina, what was Maya doing out at this hour? Did you guys get caught up?"

- "no, absolutely not. When she can't sleep, she runs. Since your father... I'm sorry, Andy... I'm sorry to bring this to your mind... And then add to that, the worries with her father... She doesn't sleep very well."

-"Vic and Travis found her lying on the ground. A walker with his dog found her at almost 5 o'clock. We don't know how long she was there. And then it's cold. She was a little hypothermic. I think that helped, keeping her alive."

- "keep alive?"

-"Carina, the doctors have to examine her, but she had a broken leg and wrist, some ribs, bruises and... Her face..."

- "what's his face?"

- "I think they broke his cheekbone"

- "did she was...."

-"No, no, Carina! At first glance she was not sexually assaulted. She even still had her phone".

- "so that's him!"

- "him who?"

- "her father... I mean, her sire"

- "how do you want it to be him Carina?"

- "I don't know, but she wasn't raped, and still had her belongings, what was the purpose, if not revenge?"

-"I don't know, honey. But the best thing right now is to wait and see. The police are still on the scene. Cameras are placed all around this park, whoever did this, they won't get away with it.

-"se scopro che è lui, lo uccido" [if I learn that it is him, I will kill him].

Amelia had returned with the stretcher where Maya was lying.

- "bambinaaaa" cried Carina while collapsing on the ground, attracting the attention of all the room, by seeing her fiancée lying inert, the disfigured face.

Immediately her friend had passed her arms around her shoulders.

- "Carina, Carina, come..."

Amelia had come to meet her friend and lowered herself to her level.

-"Carina, please come with me," she asked, holding her hands.

- "What's wrong with her? Why doesn't she wake up?"

- "don't you want to go somewhere else?" Offered the neurosurgeon.

The Italian woman got up as best she could and without taking her eyes off Maya, she went to the small waiting room of the emergency room.

- "Carina, Maya has a subdural hematoma. It's..."

- "spare me the details, I'm a doctor, I'll call you back" she said, wanting as much information, without all the details, as she could possibly know.
