Hawns father hit her over and over again. She wouldn't stop him. He was her father. He could even kill her if he watnted. No one would even know. Hours passed and finnaly he left.
Hawn cried silently hugging her knees until she fell asleep.
"Mission now" a loud voice boomed.
Hawn shot up and went to her feet. "Yes sir."
"Buy this." her father shoved a piece of paper at her.
Hawn nodded and the man left. She quickly changed and went outside.
"Stop " Hawn heard a man yell. She walked to the alley and watched as a man lunged at a young adult boy. The boy moved out of the way. The man pulled out something from his pocket followed by a loud pop. There was a sharp pain through Hawns stomach. The boy grabbed the man and slammed him against the wall. The man fell limp and so did Hawn.
Li mals POV
***
"Wheres the money" i asked the Chi group member.He walked towards me, slowly.
"Stop" I yelled.
He lunged at me but i moved out of the way. He pulled out a gun and fired. He had terrible aim and missed by a mile. I threw the gun and threw him agaisnt the wall. Blood dripped down his neck.
I gathered my things and saw a body laying in the alley. A girl. "Hey" i called and ran up to her. She was shot. I felt so guilty. If I hadn't put up a fight this wouldn't have happened. I should've just ended it quickly.
"I heard something in there" a voice said.
I grabbed the girl and ran towards my car. "I'm so sorry" i whispered. I sped to my house while calling doctors. I didn't bother to park my car neatly but parked on my lawn. The doctor was already waiting at my door.
"What happened" he asked as I carried her to the door
I kicked the door in not wanting to spend any time unlocking it. "He shot her." I brought her to my room and placed her on the bed. The doctor worked on her while i paced back in fourth outside the door.
"Sir should I make you something to eat" A maid asked.
I raised my hand hoping she'd flinch. She didn't. No one flinches when I do that anymore. They all know I won't hurt them. It just tells them I'm angry.
"Is there anything I should get you" she asked.
I set my hand on her shoulder "Tell Zhay to get over here. Its an emergency."
She nodded and walked away.
A few minutes later the door opened. I looked at the doctor.
"She's young" he smiled.
I raised my hand again.
He grabbed my arm and pulled it down. "Shes fine. She'll wake up soon"
I walked into the room and studied the girl from the side of the bed.
"Mal" the doctor called. I didnt look at him but signaled that I was listening. "What happened"
"I already told you. He shot her." I stated angrily.
"Are you sure thats it. Im not saying she wasn't shot. She was definitely shot a few minutes before I touched her but is that all that happened. She was standing there and got shot." The doctor asked.
I looked at him confused trying to hold back my anger. "Yes. That's it."
He went to the girl and held out her arm. "It looks as if she was in a fight." He moved her shirt just above her ribs revealing a huge purple bruise. She was covered in bruises. I walked away quickly feeling sick as memories flooded my head.
