silently strangled

How can someone who's had every single thing stripped away from them still make it through?
Well, hope.

Y/n Smith was born a mute. She never was able to actually speak, since she's not able to, so there was always the opportunity for something to go shit. At age seven, a man attempted to grab her. She couldn't scream, couldn't make any should. A nearby woman saw, and stopped it before it could go any farther.

This was soon to be called the "incident", a way to lighten the extreme mood of it. She suffered for PTSD, and damage that couldn't be healed at home, but away. She left, went to a mental hospital to try to get better.

Now she's 18, and returning home. It's been 12 years since she last saw her brother and sister (no Teagan sadly), and things have changed.

Tubbo was still the same, energetic boy she had always known. But she had a new neighbor. Ranboo, as known online, or Mark. He didn't understand at first, but soon realized what had happened to Y/n.

They grow closer, Mark becoming a good friend.

Until another incident happens, one that can severely hurt everything that she's worked for. All she can do is hope.
