I opened my eyes a little and saw a white ceiling. I didn't recognize it. Where was I?

'Noah. Noah, are you awake?' I heard Becca's lovely voice. She held my hand. I turned my head to her 'Becca, w-where am I?' I said softly. 'The hospital. Do you remember anything from last night?' she said. I slowly shaked my head 'No, tell me what happened?' 'Your dad, he hurted you so bad and you probably faded! You're lucky I went to your house because I felt worried about you or else no one would've found you!' I was shocked. My dad hurted me. I don't know how yet. 'What? He hurted me?! How?' I saw she doubted about telling me. 'Well, please don't be like too much in shock, it's kind of really really really bad...' she said. I looked at her with a "tell me!"-look on my face. I nodded and she sighed. 'All right... He stabbed you and threw you on the ground, your head hitted the ground, and you lost a lot of blood, which both made you fade.. I found you in a puddle of blood, it looked so scary and I was frightened! But the doctors said you are able to go home in 4 days, maybe less, because you have to recover from it. But I'm not going to let you go home. I can't do that. And your dad will probably end up in jail.' I stared at her and said nothing. I just had to let all these words run around in circles in my mind. The time passed by very slowly, and then I said 'Okay... I don't care what happens to my dad, he is a jerk. I will be fine on my own though.'

'You lost a lot of blood, and that's why you have to stay here for 4 days or less, we hope you will be fine. If there is anything wrong, you have a phone right there, and you can just ask for a nurse to come. You also have television. There's a remote right next to your bed, you can watch whenever you want. So just make yourself comfortable!' the doctor said. I nodded and the doctor walked out of the room. I slowly reached with my hand for the TV remote and I turned the TV on. The local news was on.

"A man in Glenroy abused his own daughter last night. He stabbed her and she ended up in the hospital. She lost a lot of blood and she has to recover from what happened for 4 days. Her best friend is on the phone." The newsreader said. Then I saw a picture of Becca on the screen, and I heard Becca's voice. She told the story and how I was doing, and how shocked she was to find me on the ground in a puddle of blood. I understood every word she said. I could imagine how I would feel if I found Becca on the ground with blood all over the place. Then I saw my school on the TV, where they interviewed a few people from my class, my friends and some teachers. I saw Meaghan getting interviewed, Eva, Hannah and Serena as well. They had to cry a little, and they were in shock. Their boyfriends, aka the Janoskians, were right next to them, standing there, saying nothing. They held their girlfriends when they had to cry too much to speak. It looked cute.. But then, I got like, really shocked. HE was on the TV. HE was being interviewed about me! I shot up to sit up straight and give all my attention to the TV. I focused on his face and my ears only heard his voice. "It's shocking to hear what happened... I see her daily, but I never talk to her. I hope she will be fine because I have to tell her something, and it's really important. She is beautiful and she doesn't deserve what happened to her. But I don't think she will get to see this, and I don't think if she sees this, she would care. But Noah, stay strong and fight through this and do something about this. No one knew about you being abused after this, so please find someone to help you, I'm begging you. Thanks."  I smiled, turned off the TV and made myself comfortable in my hospitalbed. A few minutes later I fell asleep with a smile on my face. He knows I exist.
