The taxi drive to the court was scary. I felt sick as we drove there.

Dan obviously saw that I wasn't feeling 100% as he hugged me close, "It'll be ok," I will stay right next to you through the whole thing..."

❤️❤️❤️

We were finishing off the court case. George admitted he was guilty to the horror of all his family. His mom was crying and his sisters were giving him dagger eyes at what he had been doing to me.

Everything was going well until someone ran in.

Rhianna.

"Stop!" She yelled and we all turned. I felt myself go a visible shade of pale.

"What do you want?" Dan said standing up and facing her.

"I think you and Phil are un-responsible parents," she snapped.

Dan's eyes widened and I stood up, "How were they bad?"

"Well your left foot is gone," Rhianna snapped, "And where were they to support you through the rape?"

"I never told them! I was scared that George would hurt me like he threatened to!" I yelled.

"Well I think you should go back to the orphanage with me," she snarls.

"Never!" I yell, "You beat me up there! I had to go to A'n'E because of you! I will never leave my parents!"

"They aren't even your real parents!" Rhianna snaps, walking towards me, "They are just two male faggots with a stupid disabled daughter who deserves nothing!"

It felt as though I had been punched in the chest. I sat down and lowered my head. She was right, I was just a stupid disabled daughter who deserved nothing.

"Hey!" Phil snaps, "No one ever says anything like that about my daughter!"

The judge ended the court quickly, sentencing George to go to prison and Rhianna too for beating me up when I was in her care.

As we walked away from the court that evening, I felt ill. Worthless in fact. Both my parents told me to ignore Rhianna's cruel words but I couldn't. They hung around like a bad smell that no Ferbrezz could get rid of.

As soon as I get home, I go to my room, remove my left leg (A/N: that sounds really weird I know...) and lay on my bed and felt the tears roll down my cheeks.

I felt ungrateful. I mean, the two people I hated were just sent TO JAIL for hurting me! But somehow... I felt mean and cruel for it happening. And what Rhianna said about me hurt mentally.

I heard my stairs move and creak before the door opened, "Lexi? Oh Lexi what's wrong?"

Phil came and sat down next to me and cuddled me, "I feel worthless and stupid..." I admitted.

"W-why would you think that?" Phil asks.

"Because Rhianna said it..."

"And that's why she is in jail along with George..."

"I just feel alone I guess," I sigh.

"Then why don't you invite Jake over?" Phil questions.

I nod and get my phone out and ring Jake. He doesn't pick up. I text him and he doesn't receive it.

Something was wrong.

I got up and attached my running leg and walked down all the stairs and to Jake's apartment. I knock, "Jake?" I call.
