BROKEN: PART 2
N:B If you haven't read part one, please do so that you can understand the story.

Now that I am grown, sixteen to be precise, I feel like I am alone in this world.

"where is the unconditional love I usually receive before, where are the candy I got whenever I cried, where are those who threw me up when I cried" all this thoughts kept running through my mind as I sat down outside the balcony of my house. As I was about standing up to get back inside, I heard my dad scream " What!"

In no time, I ran inside to check what made his scream so loud.

I entered and saw him taking his car key in a hurry.

"what happened dad!" I said to him nervously.

"Becca, I don't think I can explain but I just want you to stay calm, I know that nothing would happen to your mum" he said sweating profusely. I kept asking him to tell me what happened but he kept running down the stairs.

"Please just tell me what happened to mum, at least hint me a little please" I said desperately.

"Can I come with you at least" I screamed from our door.

"No, Becca!" my dad said. "Sarah please make sure Becca doesn't leave the house, please" he said to my maid.

I went back to the balcony and saw how swiftly he drove out of the compound. Tears clogged my red eyes, "what was happening, why can't anyone tell me what was going on, is my mum safe" I kept on thinking. "Let me call her" I said as I opened my phone to call my mum. those tears kept pouring down my cheeks and my hands were sweating and shaking at the same time.

"Just calm down Becca, your mum is fine" Sarah said to me. Her phone rang but she didn't pick. I tried it one more time, she didn't still pick. I kept trying up to five times, she didn't pick then I finally tried calling again and this time her phone was switched off.

At this point, my anxiety increased. Different thoughts kept running through my mind and I tried to prevent a particular thought but it came, " was my mum dead" this thought just dropped unexpectedly.
