"Lana my dear, what happened?!",asked Alana's grandpa as he walked hurriedly into her ward.
"Grandpa!", Alana felt so relieved as she hugged her grandpa. He was the only one who ever truly cared about her and they were really really close. Grandpa Richie was Alana's best friend.
"How are you my dear? Are you hurt? I rushed here as soon as Fred gave me a call"
"Oh, I'm fine grandpa. I was just exhausted".
"Oh my dear, don't be too hard on yourself", Grandpa said as he stroke her hair with a worried expression on his face.
"Did Fred also tell you what he did?", Alana asked as she stared into her grandfather's eyes.
Grandpa Richie looked down.
"I guess he did then. Grandpa, I can't take it anymore. It hurts so much"
She was already crying as she hugged her grandpa.
"It's okay my dear, you'll be fine. I'm sorry".

Alana was discharged from the hospital after a few more days. She stayed locked up in her room and only came out to eat. Mr Richards was so heartbroken to see his granddaughter like that.
Fred had also come to visit but Mr Richards didn't let him, he even beat him up the last time he showed up.
The only day Alana didn't stay in her room all day was the day she went to tell her grandpa that she wanted to leave.
Knock! Knock!
"Grandpa?", Alana called as she peeped onto her grandfather's study.
"Yes dear come in"
"Grandpa, I wanted to tell you that I want to leave. I want to go abroad".
"But why?" Richards asked.
"I need sometime to heal. This place just reminds me of everything over again. I think it's time I take in some fresh air".

Mr Richards tried all he could to convince his granddaughters, but she was a stubborn as her grandma, so he eventually gave in.
The next week, Alana had already booked her flight to London.

Fred came looking for her immediately his wounds healed but was told she had left the country.
"Go home Fred, she's never coming back"
These were the words Mr Richard's told him.
