The last hope ch47
Marco
was lying in the hospital feeling nothing, voices coming and going, police wanting to talk to her, delicious feeling of numbness, falling into a deep sleep, only to wake up on Hugh's face
Sometimes Maggie's daughter Zahra came, and Marco was surprised that Marco cared to visit her, while Maggie and Nirvana never came to see her during her time in the hospital.
There was only Peter who cared about the press and the police, and he told her, every word she said, She didn't remember anything from what had happened, and she wasn't lying, because she didn't really fall down, how she fell from above. All she remembered was the moments of fall and horror, except not feeling anything. She knew how people died.
Marco felt that she was close to going to that other world, but in the last moments her spirit returned to that world again, she didn't know if she was happy because she was alive or not, but she didn't deny her happiness because Hugo had been around her all that time, but it was that girl, Zahra. Marco felt in that moment a great love for the girl, the love of the mother to her daughter She wanted to say everything, the whole truth, but she could never do it, and she was grateful that she didn't get carried away with her feelings and speak anything wrong.
On her last day at the hospital, she was amazed to see Nirvana and Peter together come to visit her, or perhaps to reassure, that it was Hugh who was helping Marco to get up and sit down while Nirvana watched Marco's face well, but Marco did not understand what Nirvana specifically wanted, so she was relieved when they left and Hugh helped her drive home again.
What Marco hates most is the fear of the future that has dominated her life since childhood, even though she has everything in the past, but suddenly everything crashes, she becomes lonely, sometimes she has a fucking nightmare around her, which is that Maggie stabs her exactly, she doesn't understand where she is at the time, everything is dark, a miserable dark room, a stench trapped in bed.
There, Maggie wears a strange costume and is accompanied by Safiya's sister, Nadia, and both of them violently cut up her body as she wakes up screaming from the intense pain she feels all over her body.
She went to a psychiatrist, had a drink, danced, sang, traveled, spent a lot of money, nothing helped her, but everything changed after Hugh suddenly entered her life, even though she knew that he did not love her back, but she wanted to think that he loved her so that she could survive out of love.
This was a mistake, but Maggie submissive her as usual, she has to say no and say no, but she sends the baby quietly, deeply ashamed of herself for not fighting for her only daughter and leaving her to live with Maggie and her father Andrew.
The mistakes of the past are forever; what you neglect when you are young abandons you when you are old, and what you save when you are young benefits you and supports you when you are old.
She was the only person who ever truly loved her, Marco's grandmother, who, as a child, suffered from bullying, even from her little family, her mother and father, from the criticism she received for her weight, so she made sure to do everything to lose weight, before she was shocked at her family's decision to put her in boarding school.
Although it was years past, he poured sorrow into the heart of Marco, who loved once and regretted very much. Andrew was at the time the most handsome boy in high school with a vast future. He is the sole heir to his father and has only one brother from his father's lover, and Marco loved him from the first moment.
But he would not look at her and leave behind the best girl in school, Maggie, who had finally succeeded in becoming a member of her gang in order to get close to him, abandoning her only friend Safiya, whom she treated with love and honesty, and Monica the innocent girl in order to get close to Andrew.
She still remembers that fateful night that Monica died in the schoolyard, and they accused Safiya and let her go to a mental institution alone in her and everyone spent his life, but what happened to Marco on her day is no less than what happened to Safiya because Marco also, a few months later, decided to give up her child in order to regain the trust of her family, but her father, despite his arrogance, ruined everything and destroyed it.
Marco felt that the girl was being bullied and described as ugly again, but she felt a strange inner pride watching her daughter's flower, a 15 year old girl who was too beautiful to be unlovable.
That was the only thing that made Marco accept the guilt of leaving her baby, and in the end Marco thought that the girl was living with her real father. If she lived with her, what would she have become?
She's still trying to distract her mind and eat more candy, forgetting the sound of a classroom call to anyone to save Monica and stop what's happening to you, all she could do was hide that damn note Monica wrote before she died telling her parents about the harm she suffered at school and what Maggie and her gang did to her.
She hid the note, although she lied to Maggie and told her that she had burned it, but remained with her, and something was keeping her from getting rid of it, perhaps finding a good time to hurt Andrew if she proudly hurt their daughter Zahra, or perhaps avenging her for what he had done to her that night when he told her that he loved her for ridicule and gave him herself, but abandoned her as if it were something bad.
She awoke from the darkness and the loneliness of seeing Hugh's car approaching her door; she felt so relieved that he had come to see her, that her heart was beating again, that she had forgotten the incident she had just had, as if it had fallen from her memory.
