Rebecca's heart had been shattered. As she dashed away from Timothy's dorm and back to her own, tears poured down her cheeks.
An excruciating pain in her heart and a burning feeling in her lungs from running and crying.
Rebecca's sniffles could be heard all the way back to her dorm, and the moment she sought solace behind her closed door, she erupted in a full-fledged scream.
Despite being cautioned against being with Timothy, she never believed he would hurt her. When he said he loved her and there was no one else for him, she believed him. She was now shouting and thrashing about, cursing herself for being so naïve.
Rebecca saw Stephanie's figure through her tears as the door to the dorm room was forced open. She sunk her head deeper into the pillow out of guilt and humiliation.
