Chapter 52 Something Important

• JUNIPER
• I do not know what happened with Hiram and the disciplinary committee, but after that day, he vanished from school. What puzzled me is the fact that I wasn’t, even once, called in by the panel for what happened, and they passed the information on, stating he sexually assaulted me. I wanted to know why he would put himself up, but he went mute on me. He didn’t send a text, and he never called. It’s been five days now, but it feels like an eternity. My heart aches each time I remember him, and I cannot even tell who is worse between him and Cillian. He didn’t apologize for humiliating me in class, and he hasn’t called to check on me. Nothing.
• Worse? My nightmares have returned. I have been staying with Rhea for a while, and my routine has been the same—waking up drenched in sweat and crying the entire day because of Hiram.
