After closing the door behind her, Bella felt an inevitable ache in her heart as she walked down the empty corridor toward the elevator. She could feel her knees shaking slightly.
All the emotions she had been holding back for a long time began to torment her. Sadness, anger, and disappointment. It made her want to cry, but she held it in again.
Arriving at the hospital's main entrance, Bella took out her cell phone to call Sean. Still, before she could dial his number, she heard the sound of a car horn from a particular direction.
When Bella noticed Sean's car, she tried to adjust her expression before walking towards it. She didn't want Sean to know what was going on inside her mind because of what had just happened in the hospital, especially about her father slapping and verbally abusing her.
Bella feels ashamed to tell Sean about the way her family treats her. How embarrassing!
