Chapter 25: "...Well she's off limits"

Marianna

He came back.

He actually came back.

And in doing so...he could have died.

Jackson Krey risked his life...for me?

I still couldn't wrap my head around what had happened forty-eight hours ago.

Jackson's dad was going to rape me if it wasn't for Jackson bursting in and telling him to leave.

I was surprised he even came back.

I mean why would he?

I can't even describe the relief I felt when he did.

I was going to be okay.

I kept repeating those words over and over again.

But when Mr.Kref stabbed Jackson, I lost it.

I always knew that Jackson's father was a bad man. But who would kill their own son?

And the worse part is that he didn't even feel bad.

He didn't have any remorse whatsoever.

He was a sadistic pig who deserves to die a slow and miserable death.

**//**

It had been two days since I had seen Jackson.

He was at the hospital and I hadn't gotten any news whatsoever.

It was hard to admit it to myself but...I was kinda worried about him.

What if he died?

Then you'd be free.

Which trust me, I want.

But...

I don't think I could live with myself, knowing that someone else died because of me.

Even if that someone else was Jackson out of all people.

"Marianna"

I snapped out of my trance when I hear Maria calling my name.

She walks into my room, slowly closing the door behind her before making her way towards me on the bed.

"Hey" She says

"Hi"

"I have news" She says

I freeze.

"Is it about Jackson?"

She nods.

"Is he okay?" I ask

She slightly smiles.

"He's back from the hospital"

"Already?"

"Yeah. Apparently, the knife didn't hit any important organs. He was very lucky." She says

I feel myself relax.

"Good"

"Do you wanna go check on him?" She asks

"I don't know..." I trail

She lets out a soft chuckle.

"I think you do" She says

She stands up before heading towards the door.

"Do..." I trail

She stops in her tracks before turning to face me.

"Do you think he'd even want to see me?" I ask
