“I remember blaring sirens, someone asking my name, and someone else taking my pulse. But I don’t remember how I got to the hospital.
My eyes were puffy and swollen painful slits. From where I lay in the hospital bed, all I could see were clean white walls, the doctor, my mother, and Malachi.
“Hey, baby,” my mother said while patting my hand.

My mouth was parched as I looked at Malachi and tried to smile. He smiled back, but I could tell that he felt sorry for me.
“How do you feel?” My mother held a cup of water to my mouth and I sipped.
“Sore and tired,” I said.
“Well,” the doctor said, “you took a pretty bad bruising, young lady. You’ll be sore for a couple of days but nothing is broken and you will heal. Once everyone is done here, I would like for you to participate in a domestic violence group we have here at the hospital for victims.MoreLess
