Caleb Finn's POV

I couldn't stop shaking my leg. I wanted to know what happened with Daniella. My Mum was supposed to be here because Daniella was her only family here. I was only gone for forty minutes, I feel so guilty I should've known.

"Caleb?" I hear and I see Caty, Cassandra, Evelyn and my Mum. My Mum checks in with the nurse when Caty goes straight towards me hugging me. I hugged her back trying to calm myself down. After I pull apart from Caty, Cassandra and then Evelyn give me a quick hug.

"Are you alright?" Caty asked me. I nodded but I didn't think Daniella was.

"She'll be fine. Just... got to wait, Alright?" I nod as I held her hand.

"Daniella Martinez?" The Doctor came to the waiting room. My Mum and I stand up. I give Caty a reassuring look before I got up exiting the place going to her room. We see two police officers in her room. We stand outside her door getting ready to hear what the doctor has to say.

"We did a rape kit on her, otherwise minor concussion, dislocated arm, nothing too damaging. She should be back on her feet in three months to six months... Whose household does she live in?"

"Mine, which is where I found her," I say to the doctor.

"Well, I believe your house is a crime scene so, you would probably have to crash at someone else's for a couple days. Since she may have PTSD after she heals it's be best if she doesn't go back for a while." Tears began welling in my eyes knowing Daniella the Motherly figure who I've grown up with since I was six years old will no longer live in my home.

"I'm sorry," He said leading us into her room.

"Daniella, are you alright?" My Mum asked her. She nodded before turning to me.

"Can I explain what happened?" She asked me.

"If you don't want to right now, no. If you insist go ahead. I don't want you pressuring yourself, Daniella," She sighs looking between my Mum and I.

"I finished putting bedsheets in the guest bedroom. I went to put a load of your clothes into the washing machine. I heard a door click open so I assumed you were home. I called for you but, didn't hear anyone.. While I was in the living room I looked out the window to see no cars. I got hit in the head with a metal object. I fell to the ground. My vision was blurry... I felt him hold my arm behind my back to the point he dislocated it. I felt him take off my pants.. and... he forced himself inside of me. He said, "this is for your boss. A perv who enjoys using girls" and I froze. I couldn't help myself up. I couldn't fight... I felt weak," Daniella was crying. I was crying with her because I didn't want her hurt. I held her hand giving her reassurance that everything would be okay.

"They left ten minutes before you arrived. When I heard the front door open I knew you were home... I couldn't even yell or scream, My vision was slowly focusing when you showed... but it was hard to hear you..." I couldn't even began to process how frightening this was, for her.

"Did he say anything else?" I asked.

"No." I nodded as I take a moment to process everything she told me. My Mum hugged her at some point feeling awful about Daniella's experience.

"I'll see you tomorrow, alright?" I tell Daniella, she nodded before I exited the room. I saw Caty, I couldn't risk anything. Especially with everything happening.

"I think the person who targeted Daniella... may be after me... So, I'm going to leave town for a while," I tell them before leaving the hospital. I needed a break from Melbourne.
