Chapter 16- Struck

Chapter 16- Struck

Kelly's mind were interrupted by disgusted thoughts, if Millie remembered, she would've lived in utter fear. Millie wouldn't be the same again because

Millie was molested.

"Millie lost her memories from that year. She only knows about the crash- that's it." Kelly spat out quietly.

"So she doesn't know, that she got- molested? By her brother?" Mitchell interrupted.

"If you guys had addressed the situation- Charlie probably wouldn't be dead. But he would have been in jail and his sister would have to live with the memories of what Charlie did to her. You saved her." Kelly exclaimed, Robert--Millie's dad--joined in on the conversation after sitting with Millie for a countless amount of time.

"Mitchell, Karine. Thank you so much for coming." Robert said with a shaky voice, "Um- Millie spoke to me. All she told me was about her relationship with Finn and stuff. She's still not explaining though. I think she needs time."

"Robert.." Kelly sniffled, she glanced at Mitchell and Karine one last time indicating that she needed to be alone with her husband. "Mitchell and Karine, they told me some major news about the day Charlie died."

"I know- I overheard" Robert's voice broke, he couldn't listen to the whole thing but he heard everything. Thinking of your daughter getting harassed like that, especially by her own brother. He carefully enveloped his arms around Kelly as she quietly choked on her sobs. Streams of salty water stained on their cheeks, imagine the hardship if Millie knew.

*MILLIE'S POV*

-Few weeks later-

"Millie, has finished her 3 weeks here but she isn't improving. She won't take her medicine, and she won't do any of the activities or let her friends visit her. Her boyfriend has started coming here almost every day, she doesn't see him but he hands her a letter. I fear that maybe these letters are emotionally hurting her. She won't let us read them and after he started handing them onto her-" Dr. Montgomery explained the tragedy to my parents. It has been three weeks and I am still sitting in this mental hospital, this place is making me go absolutely crazy. My mom can't bare to see me in a small room without windows so she barely stepped in the same space as me, she thinks it causes her hardship. My dad is angry at the staff here and is always yelling at them to let me go back home. I was only supposed to stay here for two weeks, but then they said I didn't improve so I stayed another week, and now I predict that they will force me to stay even longer.

"Can you stop talking about me like I am not here?!" I showed anger for the first time in a while, I was emotionless in front of them, I haven't eaten in weeks and I only sob during the night letting out all the pain and anger that boiled inside of me during the day.

"I apologize Millie, why don't you let Nurse Scott take you on a walk?" Dr. Montgomery spoke to me like I was some three year old.

"I can take a walk by myself." I rolled my eyes and dragged my feet to the bathroom. I looked into the mirror with cracks and tape all over it. The shards of glass a falling off the wall almost giving me flashes of nightmares every time I looked at myself. I glanced down at my hideous hospital gown, and headed back into my empty hospital room, ignoring my parents who were frowning at the Doctor's mysterious news. I opened up my steel drawers and took shorts and an old flannel. They let you wear pajamas from home sometimes. I changed into the oversized flannel and I headed to the activity room, where sad and helpless teenagers tried to socialize or cope. I took a seat by the window, hugging my knees and holding out the first letter Finn sent me, I read them start to finish everyday.

Dear Millie,

I know you are probably wondering why I am writing a cliche letter to you. Your doctors suggested that I write them to you but knowing you, you probably won't respond. I know my words won't let you cope or smile, because you are strong and you don't need a guy's words to do that to you. I miss you a lot, and so does, Sadie, Caleb, Dustin, Keith, and Noah. We kind of got pretty distant, but Sadie and I meet up every now and then. She's sorry that she didn't get to visit by the way, she went to visit her grandma is Rhode Island after you got admitted. And I am sorry I didn't visit either, I had a tough week after your incident and I just couldn't face you. And I know you are probably thinking about how pathetic it is that I used a bad week as my excuse because I know you are going through worse. The other day I saw my mom get slapped by my dad, and the day after he threw a beer bottle at me. For the first time, I was scared. And I was just really lonely and scared. But I thought about you and everything was okay. I can't wait till these two weeks are done, and you're safe. Love you my princess.

-Finn

Dear Mills,

Yesterday when I came, they said you were staying another week and I am really sorry that you aren't getting better. Please tell me when I can see you, write me or tell a doctor because it hasn't even been four days and they're estimating you to stay another week. I am really worried about you Mills, and I am worried about us.

-Finn

Dear Millie,

I am sorry, it's been two days and I haven't visited. I did something I can't live with, I was at a party and I got drunk. Things led to another, and I cheated on you. It was a kiss and then I realized what was happening. I wasn't right in the head and I am so sorry Mills. Please let me see you soon, I am going crazy.

-Love, Finn.

Dear Millie,

It's been two weeks and I haven't sent you a letter in days. The doctors told me you stopped eating and they assumed it was because of my letter. I didn't answer their questions because they should be asking you. So I am asking you, Millie are you not eating because of me? Are you not getting better because of me?

-Finn

Suddenly a nurse follows me to the love seat I benched myself on, with a letter in her hand.

"Millie, your boyfriend Finn is here. Would you like to see him?" She said in an annoying tone, a handful of pity was thrown at me whenever someone spoke to me.

"No," I bluntly said.

"M'am she will see him." A british voice said behind me.

"What?" I snarled, I saw a boy with dusty brown hair and a name tag with his arms crossed, he looked my age.

"You will see your boyfriend." The boy smirked.

"And who do you think you are?" I growled.

"Romeo. Romeo Beckham." He smiled with his shiny and pearly white teeth, "I'm a volunteer here at the front desk, and your boyfriend is basically a mess."

"He's a mess?" I scoffed.

"I don't know you. But apparently it his birthday today-" He continued.

"It's already the first of August?" My voice broke, I immediately started sprinting down the hall, and pressing the buttons of the elevator that you needed a key to get into, "Open this!! They don't tell anyone anything! Today is Finn's birthday and I promised myself I'd be with him!" I yelled crazily.

"Hey, hey. Shh. Finn will be up here shortly. You're alright. He's alright." Romeo enveloped his arms around me from behind and I slowly fell to the floor and he crouched down with me. Slowly the elevator doors opened and Finn was there, with roses in his hands, he saw me with tears and immediately he cupped his hands around me face.

"Still beautiful." He handed me the beautiful velvet colored flowers.

"Happy Birthday." I smiled,

"I love my present." He kissed my tear stained cheeks.
