Chapter 11
The sound from Crystal’s voice was so alarming the soul as she shouted from deep down her mind.
Her eyes were already swollen from crying too much as though she was bereaved.
The kind of pain she was feeling could not be explained as she kept on looking at her friend with so much grief in her heart.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Her friend shocked by what she was seeing, became so speechless as she hurriedly rushed towards her location to find out what was troubling her to the point of making her cry that much.
“Hey Crystal, what is wrong with you my dear friend?”, Georgia asked with so much chaos and anxiety to know what was going on as she was lost with all the drama that Crystal was conducting.
Georgia touching and romancing her back in an attempt to calm her down, was doing it in a very soft and subdued manner.
However, she had no idea if she was doing it right but all she knew was that it had to work as she continued rubbing her back like a baby.
She knew that it was a good idea because she had always been her favorite girlfriend since childhood.
Crystal couldn’t acknowledge what the problem was to her friend so she just sat still on the bed looking down at her feet.
Georgia came closer and sat by her bed and rubbed her shoulder and with a disturbed look she asked,
” I have been calling you all day but your phone had been switched off Crystal, that is so unlike you so I got worried and decided to pass by here to check on you”, she related.
She was a strong girl but she also needed company during that moment and her friend had come just on time.
She hugged her friend and with so much sadness in her voice she said,
“Thank you very much for checking up on me my friend, I do appreciate it”.
Her friend could see how pale she looked and so she seemed worried,
” Are you okay?”, she further asked with a very tense look trying to figure out what was the problem as she could not bear seeing her friend suffering in that manner.
In all her life knowing Crystal, she had only seen her in such a state when she lost her parents not until now that she does not know the real cause of her problem.
Looking at her while crying, she became so emotional that she could not hold herself back from crying too.
Georgia began crying without knowing what the problem was. The bond between Georgia and Crystal has always been strong and has become stronger and stronger day by day.
“Crystal, talk to me, I am your friend”. Georgia said putting on a huge smile of motivation on her face to assure her that she wasn’t alone in whatever it was she was going through and also that she had always got her back no matter what the problem was.
Crystal still sitting on her bed, was still dumb due to the anger that had already nursed in her.
She did not know how to start explaining to her friend as she was so embarrassed about the whole incident. She was so lost in her thoughts that she did not know what to think again.
However, she had no idea if she was going to ever recover from her present situation and state then following the crucial and bad incident that had just occurred to her very early that morning.
However, she could not tell her friend about the actual incident that just happened very early that morning. It was a secret and was supposed to be known just between her and her uncle.
There was a need for her to keep her calm as she was so carried away with everything that could disturb her.
She kept on being calm. Her friend losing patience could no longer continue asking her the same questions.
So she had to force her to give her answers to her numerous questions as she held her firmly by the arms regardless of how painful it was to her.
All she wanted then were answers and only answers. No more, no less. And she was ready to get them no matter how hard it could be for her to get the answers.
As she was shaking her up, she came back to herself as she had already started regaining her senses. She was coming back to herself. She was lost in her time before.
At first, she was trying to hide everything from her as she said.
“Yes I am, I just have a dull headache”, Crystal said trying to lie to her friend Georgia. She was trying to cover up everything from her as she did not want Georgia to know the whole truth about what was happening to her at that moment.
” Do you want me to go downstairs and tell Gina to get you something for that?”, Her friend Georgia asked with a lot of concern for her as she wanted to go downstairs and call for the house help to find out if she could help a little bit with the whole the whole situation.
The main reason why Georgia was insisting on calling for Gina to come upstairs was because she thought that Gina could be of help.
She felt like she was kind of intruding into Crystal’s affairs as Crystal’s new way of behaving towards her was so unfamiliar to her and she had never experienced such behavior from her before.
“No I will be fine Georgia”, she responded with a very pale voice as she sounded so weird and very unusual. Her voice was sounding so frustrating as Georgia could barely even get what she was saying then.
Georgia, struggling to hear what Crystal was telling her decided to come close to her so that she could hear directly from the horse’s mouth.
” Why? Are you sure you do not want me to call Gina for you? She could help with your situation you know?”, Georgia said with a very soft, calm, and subdued voice trying to convince Crystal to accept the proposal that she had just given to her about calling Gina for her.
But still yet, following how stubborn Crystal is just like the way she has always been, she denies her proposal as she vehemently refuses to accept the fact that she wants to Call Gina for her.
Well as it was not her will.
However, it was not going to do any good to her if she was going to call Gina for her but it could have added more pain to her because she needed a lot of space.
Due to the psychological trauma that she was undergoing right now, she could no longer be like before so easily as she was abused as well as she was violated by a total stranger that she did not even know him so well.
All she knew about him was that he was a very wealthy man and not only wealthy as a millionaire but he was a well-known and renounced Billionaire.
Georgia remained for a while with her friend trying her best to console her though not still getting to know what was wrong with her. As she tried to figure out everything that was going wrong with her.
” Come on Crystal. You are making me cry too. I don’t still know why you have been crying for so long now. You have refused to tell me anything. It’s not fair you know? ” said Georgia with a very low tune as well she also felt so sad because she could not get to know why Crystal was in such a bad mood that morning because she had vehemently refused to tell her anything that concerned her problems that day which Georgia saw it to be totally and completely unlike the Crystal she had always known before.
After a long period of Georgia trying to convince Crystal to tell her just the surface of why she was acting so weirdly that morning, She finally succeeded to convince Crystal on telling her what she wanted to hear at that moment. At least, her efforts to convince her did not go in vain.
All hopes were not yet gone because she had the confidence that Crystal would finally end up telling her what she wanted. She was finally falling for it as she started telling her some of the things that had been bothering her since that day had started.
Finally, Crystal agreed to answer all her questions to clarify all her doubts.
She wanted to make things clear to her as she decided to tell her part of the story.
Crystal, after selecting all the words that she had to say now decided to tell her what was disturbing her the most. At this point, she has to be very mindful of what she has to tell her friend Georgia.
This was because Crystal was kind of scared that, in the course of their conversation, she might end up saying something that she did not want to say. This was one of the reasons why she was keeping calm as she did not want to talk to Georgia and anything that was happening to her at that moment.
To Crystal, there were some secrets that she was not supposed to share with Georgia. Especially those secrets which were so intimate that only a single person had to know about it.
So there was the need for her to keep calm. However matter how Crystal could keep calm for that moment or even try changing topics so that they both swouldtawould ttalkwas happening.
