I couldn't believe how much attention I had drawn to myself. I looked around in shame and disgrace at how everyone stared at me and some stared at Zay… angrily.
"I didn't say anything." I heard Zaydin speak quietly.
I fixed my eyes on my toes with fear that he might hit me, I took a few steps backwards to avoid annoying him any further.
"Hey, Miss!!? Did he hurt you?." A male voice kissed my ears.
"No, I am fine," I spoke softly in fear.
"I am very sorry, Zayden."
I heard a low chuckle and then a pair of heavy hands fell on my shoulders.
"You finally pronounced my name properly."
I looked up at him in shock.
Was he really paying attention to that? was he going to hit me afterwards for screaming so loud? Why did he not scold me?
"It's fine, sometimes things happen." His words were new and strange to me.
I never knew men were nice or meant to be nice to women.
How could a stranger treat me like his sister or even his girlfriend and not hit me?
I looked sideways and waved at the man who had asked if I was okay, he was nice and looked like he was in his twenties.
In Sunrise Valley (my home town) men were always hitting and throwing their wives and girlfriends out on the streets.
"Hey!, go in." He said with the door opened and him standing beside it.
"You didn't have to do this."
"Well!!, ladies first." He smiled.
"That's a thing?." I asked in shock.
He nodded with a smile on his face, I climbed into his high-framed car and slid myself into the car seat.
I looked out to see him before he closed the door.
He walked around the car before he sat behind the steering wheel.
"Have you had anything to eat?." He asked.
I shook my head.
"Why is he asking such a question?." The voice in my head asked.
"Oh!!, So now you're curious?!!." I rolled my eyes in annoyance.
"I am sorry I didn't ask earlier." He apologised.
Why was he apologising? What an odd man he is.
"Thank you," I replied puzzled as to the reason he apologised.
"Try replying inwardly dumb ass!!." The voice went on and on without a break.
Am I running mad or is this the same illness that made my mother speak to herself when she is all alone?
"Excuse me!!, You're the dumb one!!."
"Huh?."
Zayden had already driven out of the hospital while I was acting like a crazy old lady in his car.
That was the moment I understood why he was apologizing and why the voice in my head had told me to reply inwardly.
"I am so sorry." I couldn't tell him I was hearing a voice in my head.
"You look pale." He observed.
"We will stop at a restaurant a few streets from here."
I looked straight ahead and avoided his face, I took deep breaths from time to time trying to calm my nerves.
The voice didn't keep quiet but instead, it kept screaming in my head, I felt an itching sensation behind my throat.
"Ahh!!!." I screamed till my voice cracked.
The screeching sound of the car tire made me scared but the pain I felt from my bones snapping was driving me crazy.
"Are you okay?." I heard his voice in the background with so many things going on.
My sight began to go blank, my heart was failing me. Tears running down my eyes.
I felt arms all around me but I couldn't see who it was. I was settled on a soft surface.
My eyes fluttered open, I looked down at my hand and it looked hairy like that of an animal.
My eyes broke open in shock.
"Is this a dream?." I growled.
I had lost the ability to speak or move properly.
"What did you do to me?!!!." I cried out but yet it sounded like a growl.
Everything looked fuzzy and weird, my system was failing, I tried getting up only to realize I had four legs.
What was happening, why am I now an animal? I am a beast.
"Shout the Fuck up Quiana!!." The voice in my head sounded loud.
I began to sob in pain. My heart was racing while my mind was in a crazy mess.
The car came to a stop, Zayden rushed out of the car, and the door flung open.
I jumped to the other side in fear only to look down at the floor mat of the floor car to see my shredded clothes.
"Agh." The growl which escaped from my lips sounded monstrous.
Zayden stumbled backwards in fear.
My bones began to snap again.
Why? Why do I always have to go through pain and misery? Is this a course for running away from home?
I curled up into a fur ball in pain.
"If you're still in there please let me help you." He stuttered.
"Why!!!, why are you so nice to me? you barely even know me!!." I began to sob in fear.
"Because you seem like a young miss misunderstood girl." He answered.
I looked up at him and then down at my hands, they were back to normal. They were no longer fury, I looked at my legs and I was no longer a beast.
"I am back to normal!!." I began to rejoice.
Jumping inside the car.
"I am back to normal?." I paused in confusion.
I looked down at my naked body and then I raised my head to find Zayden staring at me with an emotionless look on his face.
