...filthy fingers on my girlfriend.

"Yes Kyla." she said.

"Okay. Make sure you call me if anything goes wrong." I said.

"Okay." she said. I dropped her at her house with my car before heading to school. I couldn't stop thinking about Grace's predicament. She's really in pains, and to think that she endured being raped.. oh gosh.

I walked to my locker and took my required books. I turned to see J staring at me and I was startled.

"Oh gosh, you scared me." I said.

"What happened baby? I called you so many times and texted you but you weren't picking or replying to my messages. Are you still mad at me?" he asked and placed one hand on my locker.

"I'm not mad at you." I said sincerely.

"But you are not smiling. You look sad and moody." he said, fondling my cheeks. I sighed.

"Baby I'm so sad right now." I said with a pout, trying to fight back the tears that were threatening to fall from my eyes. He focused all his attention on me.

"What happened?" he asked and I told him everything that happened and tears were flowing from my eyes.

JEREMY'S P.O.V

She told me everything that happened and she got emotional. I wiped her tears and embraced her.

"Those jerks tried to lay their filthy fingers on my girlfriend." I muttered in anger.

"Babe, my friend has been going through a lot of sufferings and it's just so heart wrenching to realize it just yesterday." she said and I refrained from her.

"Did they as much as touch you?" I asked.

"Babe, this not about me, it's about Grace." she said and I sighed.

"We'll do something about it." I said.

"You're sure?" she looked at me.

"No one touches my princess or makes my princess cry and gets away with it." I said and she leaned on me. We walked to class.

GRACE'S P.O.V

I went home and saw Felix drinking himself to stupor, in the living room. He just looked at me shortly and back to his drink. I walked to my room, happy that he didn't do anything to me.

Everything went well. I went to school pretty late. I seriously hate my school, it was boredom and teachers teach whenever they feel like it. It's so frustrating. After my boring day at school, I went home and did all the house chores till late at night. I was so tired. I laid on the bed.

After sometime, I felt hands on my thighs. I quickly opened my eyes and switched on the light and saw Felix on my bed with just his boxers. Before I could get off the bed, he pinned me to the bed.

"Felix, please, don't.. don't do this to me." I screamed and cried. He slapped me hard. He got on top of me.

"So you called your bitch of a friend to insult me in my house, right?" he asked and gave me several punches on my face and tummy. I screamed for help but it was of no use, no one was around to help me.

"Felix stop, please stop it." I cried. He knelt between my legs and he started unbuttoning my pyjamas. "Please don't do this to me." I cried but he slapped me in return. I struggled with him but he managed to take off my shirt, left with a transparent singlet. He went down to my shorts but I struggled with him. I pushed him with all my strength and he hit his head on the wall and collapsed. I quickly stood up and ran out of the house as late as it was.

I don't know where to go to but I can't stay in that house any longer. My body aches badly and I felt weak. I walked along the dark Street as I cried my eyes out. I looked around, everywhere was scary and quiet. I felt cold due to the lightness of my singlet and my short. I should go to Kyla's house. It's a bit far but I'll try my best. I'm freezing out here. I hastened my footsteps. I wish I had my phone with me or some money.

I saw some guys walking behind me.

"Hey, do you strip?" one of them asked and I began to run as fast as I could, away from them. After hours of trekking, I finally got to Kyla's Mansion. I was freezing to death. The security man walked to the gate, pointing his torch at me.

"What are you doing here at this hour?" he asked.

"Please let me in, I'm freezing out here." I said.

"I can't allow you in, It's very late. I'm not allowed to open this gate at this time for security reasons." he said.

"Please tell Kyla that her friend is here." I said.

"How do you expect me to wake up the young madam at this time?" he questioned but I kept pleading with him.

KYLA'S P.O.V

I was woken up by some noise. What's going on? I stood up and walked out of my room. I walked downstairs. The noise seems to be coming from outside. I walked out to see what the problem was.

"Oh my goodness.. Grace?" I asked and ran to the gate. I hit the security man severally. "Why are you not opening the gate?" I asked.

"Ma'am I'm not..." I cut him short.

"Open the damn gate." I yelled at him and he quickly open the gate. I hurried to her. She was just on her nightwear, barefooted. She was so cold. "Come in.. come on let's go inside." I said and led her inside. I took her to my room and searched for a sweater. I wore it on her and used the blanket to cover her up.

I went down to the kitchen and made her a cup of hot chocolate. I gave it to her and she drank it. She laid on the bed shivering. I switched off the air conditions. I couldn't help but cry.

" Please be ok." I said patting her hair. What should I do? Oh gosh. I watched over her until she fell asleep. It was 3 a.m. in the morning.

I tried to get some sleep too.

The next day, I called my personal doctor to check up on Grace. She had a fever. She was given drugs to take after eating. I gave her the drugs after she ate breakfast and she fell asleep again. My phone rang.

"Baby." I called.

"Are you going to school?" he asked.

"I don't think so." I said.

"Why?" he asked.

"I can't explain over the phone." I said.

"Okay, I'm on my way." she said and I hung up. I later heard his car driving in. I went downstairs. I walked to him outside. He wasn't in his school uniform. I embraced him. "Why are you not in your school uniform? Didn't you plan on going to school today?" I asked.
