Stars In Her Eyes

Eighteen

"So this Sabrina girl, who exactly is she?",

well I had that question coming.

We're on our way to campus.

There's no possible way for me to avoid the conversation we're about to have so I might as well give in.

"Sabrina is my roommate and we've grown to be very close... I care about her a lot",

there, that ought to do it.

Saying basically everything but without giving away anything.

"Ouch well she's lucky to have you, not every roommate would've done what you did",

ouch mom if only you knew.

"I love her mom and not just as roommates or even friends... I love her a lot more then that",

an honesty bomb drops.

I've finally said it out loud, I love Sabrina.

"Does she love you back?"

"It's complicated..."

"And this Trent-guy?",

yeah I had that coming too.

This conversation was eventually gonna happen anyway. Sooner or later, I just hoped it had been later.

"Trent is Sabrina's sort of on-off supposedly soon to be ex boyfriend, who has never learned the meaning of the word friendship or boyfriend",

that sounds even more complicated then my own love life.

"And he did this to Sabrina?",

mom catches on quick.

"Yes, so could we make a stop over at the police station? I wanna report him",

a guy like Trent shouldn't walk around freely.

He shall pay for all he's done. And if Sabrina can't make him pay, I will.

"Sure, I'll stop by the station on our way back",

mom stops the car.

Every time I come back to this place it seems ten times bigger then before. Of course my mind can't focus on anything. I'm way too worried about Sabrina. So much so that I've once again forgotten the way to our dorm room.

"Hey you're back",

Celia waves at me.

Oh good I have found it after all. That was a lot quicker and easier then expected.

"Yeah, though I won't be staying",

I answer while unlocking the door.

"Hows Sabrina? Is she feeling any better?",

since when does Celia know Sabrina.

"What do you mean?",

I play dumb to figure out what she knows.

"Well she wasn't doing so well last night, she kept on crying and hyperventilating so I stayed with her",

Celia explains.

Ouch gosh, how long has this been going on? Deep down I feel guilty, I should've been there for her. She told me she wanted to talk about it but I didn't listen. Instead I just left her, alone with those horrible people.

"Hyperventilating? Do you know what caused it?",

I ask while gathering Sabrina's stuff.

"I'm not sure, she wouldn't really talk about it",

Celia replies.

"So how is she now?",

at last, Sabrina has finally made a friend who does care.

"Well she's in the hospital now, so I have to go",

a bag has been packed full with Sabrina's stuff.

I grab it and leave in a hurry. Sabrina's teddy has also been packed, she could use some comfort.

"Good luck, tell Sabrina to get well soon",

Celia shouts as I leave.

So Sabrina spend the night with Celia, didn't see that coming. I'm honestly surprised Trent let her stay here.

While walking back to the car I can't stop worrying about Sabrina. What if she won't make it?

Mom's calling, who with? Is it the hospital? If so, what are they telling her?

My heartbeat speeds up.

"Got everything?",

mom asks as I get in.

"Eh yeah, was that the hospital?",

I have to know.

"Ouch no, it was the hairdresser, my appointment got cancelled",

oh wow that's kind of relieving.

The police station isn't that far away from campus. One of the better perks of living in a small town. Everything is automatically close by.

Though that's also I down side, I'm on edge because of it actually. Since everything is close by there's also a higher chance of running into people including Trent.

God knows what he might do to me if he finds out I'm about to report him.

God knows what I might do to him if I see him again. He won't hold me back though, Sabrina deserves to be safe. And he deserves to be punished for his crimes.
