Chapter 107

Lola's POV

I didn't know how much time passed because I was wallowing in self-pity. I thought I had people I could trust. I thought I was loved by my friends, only to find out that I was befriended by someone who wanted to see me fall. 

I did not touch the food, not like I could if I wanted to, because I felt like she would have poisoned it. My hands kept aching from being bound above my head for so long, but it was nothing compared to the ache in my heart. 

I missed Adrian and Rose and Lyla and Avianca and Nathan and Dylan, who barely spoke to me but made me laugh anytime he did. I did not know I was crying until I felt droplets of water on my chest. I went to wipe it, but the pain in my arms mocked me. I started laughing loudly while also sobbing, the two moving perfectly with each other. Anyone who saw me would have thought I had gone crazy.
