Dylan's POV

I woke up still hurting from last night. I looked around me to find that I was in my childhood bedroom. Ma was sleeping next to me in a chair.

I feel bad that she stayed all night here.

"Mommy, wake up!" I shook her lightly so she could wake up.

"Uhm? I am up! Are you ok do you need anything?" She asked panicking a little bit.

"Go to your room and sleep like a normal person please, I will be fine." I told her and she shook her head no.

"I am not leaving you baby. It's fine. I just send mama to sleep a while ago. I don't want you to be alone." She said.

"Well, good thing we are three then." Mom said from the door. "Dylan is right. You should get some sleep since you are not going to work today. I will stay with her." She continued and came closer to us.

"I thought you were at work. You had that important meeting today." Ma said.

"Don't worry Silvia both Helena and Taylor are there. My priority is to be here, with my family and my little girl." She said and kissed my forehead.

It feels so good when she does that.

"Ok then. I am going to leave you two. If anything happens wake me up immediately. No matter how important you think it is. And don't leave her alone!" She basically ordered mom who just nodded her head and pushed her out of the room.

"The combination mom and doctor is not an easy one to handle when it comes to you kids." Mom said shaking her head.

She sat on the bed with me and I immediately put my head against her shoulder and my hand over her. Her hand started playing with my hair. She knows that it calms me down when she does that.

"How are you feeling my little girl?" She asked me with concern.

"Honestly, I feel pain everywhere whenever I move." I said and she sighed heavily.

"Maybe we should rethink about going to the hospital?" She asked me hesitantly.

"NO! You know I don't like hospitals. Those places are scary. Plus I have the best doctor here I will be fine. And it's not that bad. It's just pain. I can handle it." I said trying to convince her. We both know that if my condition gets worse they are going to drag me to a hospital whether I like it or not.

"Ok baby! Whatever you want."

We stayed quiet for a little bit.

"Is he dead?" I asked my mom.

We both know that Jordan is more than capable of doing something like that.

"No he is not dead. Not yet at least." She said pulling me a little towards her, carefully so she won't hurt me. "Do you want him to be dead?" It was barely above a whisper.

Do I want him to be dead? I don't even know. I feel like I should say no. I shouldn't want anyone to be dead. Why can't I say that though?

"I don't want Jordan to go to jail!" Is the only thing I could answer

"Well he won't die because of her so you won't have to worry about that." She paused for a second. " But do you want him to be dead?" She asked me again.

"I don't know mom. What i know is that I am scared. I am so scared that he will come back and finish what he started. And the problem is... He is not the only one. There are so many people out there that want to hurt me just because I am not what they want. So many trans people have been physically and mentally abused just because we are different. I don't know how to leave like this. I don't want to be scared to go out and meet new people. Do normal things people my age do!" I was crying now and mom hugged me tighter trying to calm me down.
