Sleep with me

ALEXA'S POV.

" MS Martinez, how are you feeling? , Your friend has told me that you have no memory of the events that led you here ", The doctor in his late fifties murmured . " Yes ", l nodded my head. " That is common however we have to check you over and over and fill you in, they are people to talk to we will give you their numbers ", He explained and when I nodded my head , Bella reached out and poured me a glass of water .

I took little sip . My head was hurting and my whole face was burning . While silent , the doctor went over and told me everything , everything how I was a sexual assault , l was very lucky that he didn't rape me , someone got there in time before he had a chance to do it , b he did hit me a couple of times . I have a broken cheek bone. My face is swollen but it will go down in a week or so.

By the time he stopped telling me everything , I couldn't say any word . I looked at the ceiling trying to make sense of what he had just told me . I was totally screwed up , this is one of last things l expected to happen to me. " Can I go home now ", My voice was shaky but it's all I wanted. l didn't want to stay here anymore. , I want to be where I know best , l want my own home .

" You gonna be able to go at home in a couple of hours to come",he responded then walked out of the room , leaving Bella and me. " I called mark , l didn't mean it but l thought that he had the right to know where you are ",As soon as the doctor closed the door behind his back , Bella blurted out then paused .

Hearing her talk about Mark , I instantly knew it that whatever she was going to tell me next wasn't going to be good. Sadnes was in her eyes and her lower lip was tingling . " The thing us , Hun he told me that he can't get off work , he didn't seem concerned but he might call you and see how you are " , She pulled her mouth at the last words.

He might which means no . He doesn't care and I wasn't interested in his care . I didn't want it . " I also got hold of my mom , she told me that there are going to keep the kids for another week", She spoke again . At her words , I didn't know whether to be happy or upset . She called everyone and told them about my condition together with my mother. She also doesn't care about me and I had it in my mind that she won't call me .

" Why don't you go home ? You look tired , l need a little time to remember what exactly happened ", After thinking about it all , l felt tears brim in my eyes . This was my life . Except Bella and my kids everyone disliked me . Adrian tried to make me forget about my poor life but now I saw him with his girlfriend.

" I don't know whether that is a good idea.... ", . " Am fine Bella ", The lool on my face made her to stop in mid sentence and then grabbed my hand . " I will come back in a couple of hours to take you home , l love you", she kissed me lightly on top of my neck then walked out of the room.

Left alone , I tried to look for my bag but I didn't see it , even looking for it was useless because I left the phone at home. " Has Adrian tried to get in touch ? , Does he think differently about me now ", Dropping my head on the pillow , thoughts began to flow in my head . " Well he does , he neglected my messages", I retorted to myself as a tear streamed down my cheek. .

I shouldn't have been thinking about him now . Not after what happened . I don't want to be a victim , l don't want to change who am l . Exhausted l closed my eyes trying to get a little sleep but then sleep didn't come , l only had thoughts flow in my head . Everytime l recalled Adrian's face , tears brimmed more in my eyes .

A couple of hours later , the doctor discharged me . I didn't have any way in getting contact with Bella because l didn't have my phone . Luckily the driver let me run into the house to get his money . Once l was settled , l quickly undressed then made my way to the bathroom . After quickly texting Bella that am fine and that she shouldn't come over to see me , I sat lazily on the bathroom floor . I was trying to make myself strong but I was honestly breaking .

The doctor told me that l will soon recall everything that happened . Some part of me wanted to know what happened but the other didn't want . Leaning against the wall , l reached out for my phone and this time rang Mark. At my current state , calling him was useless but I found myself doing it . Just like usual he answered on the fifth ring .

"Hello" He sounded grumpy.

" Can you come home please? , I have something I want to tell you ", l had my mind set up but my voice broke . I didn't want to show how weak l sound to him but l now had something in my mind . I had my mind made but I couldn't speak it.

He let out a sigh but of course I knew what he was going to say next. " You know l have got work to do , l can't come , l don't know what you were thinking to go out , this is your fault , you have no other one to blame but you , how can a mother of three kids drink like a foolish whore ", I held my mouth so that a sob doesn't come out . How can he say that . I was dragged . The doctor even told me that l was nearly raped but he was blaming me . I just didn't know what happened next after that .

Without replying back , I hang the phone then fall to the floor . Letting out a loud scream , all the memories of my kids began to flow in my head . I wanted to leave but then what about my kids . I knew it that he will tell me to leave the kids . " What should I do ?", Crying loudly , l talked to myself like a fool . Enough is enough . I had tried my best to bear up with him . I now wanted to go but then l didn't want to leave my kids .

Just as l was lost in my thoughts , l soon enough heard a banging on my door . Knowing that it was perhaps Mark , l squeezed my eyes shut , calmed myself then made my way slowly downstairs . I really needed to be strong , l was now ready to tell him boldly that l can't be with him anymore .

." Alexa open the door , it's only me you okay ", I instantly halted up in my movements , it was Adrian's voice .

" Adrian why is he here ?",
