Abby

I woke up from the surgery. I was so sore. Well the anesthesia definitely wore off. I looked around my room and I saw Ashley and the Mathews, but not Chase.

Mrs. Mathews came up to me. "How are you feeling honey?" She asked.

"I'm sore but ok." I said.

Then Ashley came up to me bad. " the doctor said the operation was a complete success." She smiled. I smiled back.

"Wheres Chase?" I asked them. They all looked at each other. Ok this was getting weird.

"He's out of town. He will explain everything once he comes back" said a worried Ashley. She avoided looking into my eyes. Something was definitely up, but it seems they didn't want to tell me. It's fine, I guess. I'll ask Chase about it when he comes back.

"Can't I call him?" I asked them. They all looked at each other again. Ok something is definitely up. What could it be?

"Ugh he can't be disturbed. Don't worry Abbs you'll find out soon." Ashley told me. What was the big mystery that they couldn't tell me?

I was in the hospital for 3 days before I was able to go home. I had to take some immunosuppressants and other medication for some time after my surgery.

Ashley and the Mathews helped me pack up and get home. We were still staying at the beach house.

There was still no sign of Chase. It's been a week after my discharge. No one would tell me anything. He wouldn't answer my calls. What the hell is going on? I had a doctor appointment. Apparently everything was going very well. My body was taking the transplant very well, which was a good thing because there was a risk of rejection.

It's been two more weeks and still no sign of Chase. Where the heck was he?

I was mad at everyone for not telling me anything. I would barely talk to anyone in the house. It was very suspicious.

The following week I had another doctors appointment. Everything was going well. I didn't have another appointment for another two months.

Because of this the Mathews said we were heading back to our hometown for the rest of the summer. I asked about Chase once again and they said he would meet us there.

I was still mad at them and wouldn't talk to them. Not even Ashley. Why didn't she say anything? She's my best friend. What are they hiding?

We arrived to our home town and the Mathews residence. I walked up to my room. I sat down in my bed and I cried. What the heck was going on.

I should be happy. I finally got my surgery and it looks like I was going to live, but then there was the part where the Mathews were hiding something from me. Why couldn't they just tell me. I fell asleep for the rest of the day.

I woke up the next morning and went to go fix myself some cereal. It seemed like everyone was still asleep. As I was preparing my cereal I heard a car pull up. I looked out the window. It was Chase's car. I was so excited. I was smiling.

I went outside to greet him. He didn't see me. I saw him get out of the car and walk to the passenger side. Who was with him? He held out his hand and helped someone get out. That someone was Tiffany.

Wait what? What the hell was happening?

I finally made it to them and the saw me. "Chase whats going on?" I asked him.

Chase wouldn't look at me. Tiffany answered for him. "Don't Tell me you didn't tell her sweetheart?" She said to him.

Sweetheart? What the hell was she doing calling him sweetheart?

"No i didn't" he murmured. Why didn't he interject when he said that? Tiffany held his had. He didn't pull away.

"Well then I should tell her." She said.

"No I'll do it." He said. "Please give us a second." He told her.

Why was he being so polite to her? What the hell?

"There no need silly" she told him and then looked towards me. She held up he left hand. "We got married." She said.

"Excuse me what did you say?" I snapped back.

"Are you deaf or something, I said we got married. Why do you thing Chase was gone all this time? We planned our dream wedding and got married" she smiled at me.

I felt like the room was spinning. This must be a bad dream. I felt like I was about to pass out.

"Tiffany can we please have a minute." Chase told her.

She sighed heavily "ugh fine, but don't take too long baby" she said giving him a kiss and walking inside.

Chase walked towards me. "Abigail listen I can" I cut him off.

"No Chase you don't get to talk. You disappear for over a month. I know nothing about you. You come back and I find out you're married. To her." I pointed to the house.

"Abigail listen"

"No you don't get to call me that. In fact, don't ever talk to me at all" I told him. I could fell the tears in my eyes.

"Please just let me explain"

"No Chase, there is nothing to explain. Everything is cristal clear. No wonder no one would say anything." Everything was spinning. I need to get out of here. Out of this place, out of this house, out of this city. I walked away from him.

He grabbed my arm and I pulled away from him. "Don't ever touch me!" I spat at him.

Once I was inside everyone was downstairs. I faced them. "You all knew didn't you?" I asked them with tears in my eyes.

"Abbs, let us explain" Ashley said crying. I felt so betrayed. I was betrayed by everyone in this house. I had to get out of here.

"No Ashley. I don't want to hear it."  I said heading towards the stairs. I saw Ashley and the Michaels walk to me. "No, everyone just stay way from me." I ran upstairs into my room.

I went into my closet and grabbed my two suitcases. I would fit as much as I could in there. I called an Uber so it would be here in time and I wouldn't have to face anyone. I just couldn't.

I got a notification that it was 5 min away. I walked downstairs with my luggage and unfortunately everyone was in the living room.

"Abby, honey where are you going?" Mrs. Mathews asked worried. I wanted to say a couple of profanities but I couldn't say them to her.

"I'm leaving Mrs. Mathews" I told her.

"Abby you don't have to leave" mr Mathews said.

"Yes I do, now if you excuse me" I said as I headed towards the door.

Ashley put her hand around my arm "Abbs please" she said crying.

"Please let go. I don't want to be in this house. I need to leave" I told her.

Chase and his so called wife were in the back. "Just let her leave" Tiffany said.

"Shut up bitch" Ashley yelled at her.

I pulled Ashley hand away "I'm leaving and I'm not coming back. I do appreciate everything this family has done for me thru the years but I'm never coming back. I also don't want to see any one of you ever again. I'm not trying to be ungrateful, but this is to much for me to handle." I said as I walked more towards the door.

Ashley grabbed onto me again. "Abby please" she said crying. "You're still recovering from your surgery. You can't leave like this."

"She right honey please wait till" I cut off Mrs. Mathews.

"With all do respect Mrs. Mathews, it's none of anyone's business what I do. My parents are dead and I have no one I have no one to report to." I told her. It was as if I slapped them. I didn't mean to. I just didn't want to be here anymore.

I took Ashley's hand off me and walked outside. My Uber was here I put my suitcase in. I got in the car and didn't look back.

The first place I went to was the cemetery. I had to be quick, they might come looking for me here.

I said my goodbyes to my parents and told them I didn't know when I would be back. I got back in the Uber.

I arrived to Caleb's house a few hours later. I knocked on the door and I ran into his arms and broke down as soon as he opened the door.
