Audrey turned and looked at her mother.
"Mummy, do you know how I always feel whenever Anna smiles at me and says I AM FINE?" Audrey asked, looking at her mother eyeball to eyeball.
"I always feel like my heart is being ripped into tiny pieces and do you know why I always feel this way?" Audrey said a painful smile appeared on her face.
"It's because I know very well that she was nowhere close to being fine. I was always in pain when I saw her in pain but unfortunately, I was useless and helpless and this was because I was a child but guess what, Mummy…," Audrey smiled and turned her back on her mother.
"I am not gonna just sit and watch anyone bully my best friend and this is because the era of being a helpless child is over…,"
"Do you think things are that easy Audrey?" Mrs Lopez sneered.
"Hell no! And you are gonna realize this very soon," Mrs Lopez said. She left where she stood and walked to the window.
She stood and stared outside.
