Francesca's: POV
It's been a few days since I was admitted to the hospital. Today was the first time I'm able to shower with assistant. mommy helped me,
Then she washed my hair
Mommy and momma have been coming to visit me everyday
Sometimes they come separately other times they're together
This time mommy on her own
She told me momma went to the mall
When I asked what for mommy smiles at me. Sweetie you'll see once she gets here, mommy replied
Mommy can you braid my hair like yours. I asked her let's get you dried off first, she says to me. Mommy doesn't turn away when she sees the bruises. Dr. Hathaway said since
I'm doing a little better l can be released at the end of the week
With only one exception my brother
Can't be at the house when l'm there
Mommy excuse herself and asked Dr Hathaway could she speak to her outside the room, that's when I heard shouting coming from the hallway
I was busy watching cartoons on TV
Mommy enter my room carrying a tray. What appears to be food of some substance, mommy l don't mean to sound disrespectful but l'm not eating this nasty hospital food. Can you please call momma and ask her to bring me a turkey sandwich with mayo lettuce and pickles on a wheat roll, and some vitamin water Francesca asked her mommy
Anything else sweet girl she says to me. Mommy make sure you get yourself something as well Francesca
Tell her mommy, l am feeling kinda hungry. Lena replies, mommy why you were yelling at Dr. Jennings
Francesca asks, don't worry about
Mommy took care of it princess we just had a little disagreement Lena didn't want to overwhelm her daughter. Why was Dr. Jennings saying that Brandon couldn't be at the house with me, Francesca presses further. Okay sweetheart she thinks you seeing your brother might caused a trigger of what happened to you
Do you remember anything about that night you were taken from the cabin, Lena didn't wanna bring up the events. That would hider Francesca's recovery. l don't remember much about what happened Francesca said
Lena dropped the conversation and moved on to something else cause she could see her daughter was becoming easier irritated of people keeping asking her questions about what happened to her at that house,
Mommy called momma and asked her could she swing by subway on her way here. Mommy gave her our orders of what we wanted to eat
I've been having these awful nightmares about mister coming after me, l'm afraid to tell my mom's
Everytime they have to leave after visiting hours are over. The nurse said l'm not allowed to have them spend the night, sometimes Ms. Reign puts medicine in my lV. That's supposed to help me sleep at night, tonight mommy's staying with me and tomorrow momma will be with me the whole day. Mommy received permission from Dr. Hathaway to spend the night, l think nurse reign
is off for the tonight. I don't like her
Because she talks bad about my mom's behind their backs and smile in their faces, l think mommy notices my hesitation when she enters my room to take my vitals. Mommy promises me nones ever gonna hurt me again, l'm told my case is going to trial. I have to testify in front of the grand jury and tell them about what sir did,
