Tears rolled down Ella's cheeks as she watched Tracy who was sobbing into her pillow, "I can't take this. How can I survive this loss? How can I forgive myself?" Tracy asked as tears rolled down her face, and she blew her nose into her already messy handkerchief.
Ella didn't have any word of comfort for her friend as she was also feeling very sad and somewhat angry. She couldn't understand why Tracy had kept something as important as this away from her. Maybe if she had known what was going on, this wouldn't have happened. There was no way she would have allowed Tracy spend a day more under Ayo's roof had she known he was beating her. She tried to calm herself since this wasn't the time to be angry.
