Broken nodded greatefully and gritted her teeth against the pain. She could see the confusion on Savayia's face but didn't adress it, knowing if she opened her mouth again, the pain she felt at the moment would be apparent. Your fine, stop being a weakling. Grit your teeth and get over it. Broken told herself.

She gently pushed Autumn back down. "Dont sit up. You may be sick" She said soothingly. "We´re in a mansion" She said with a small laugh. "It belongs to a guy but he had to go somewhere so it currently belongs to a girl named Broken" Totally a lie but its better than the truth. She thought. "And mom was in an accident. The apartment caught fire" She said quietly and watched Autumns face fall. She clenched her teeth. Mom was terrible to you and your sad?! She thought angrily but pulled her towards herself. "We´re going to be okay" She said gently

Willow blinked sleep away from her eyes and looked over to the other side of the large bed. Wheres Broken? she asked herself before gettingg out of the bed and leaviing the room. She moved slowly with her head down, still exhausted, but she saw a door open by the stairs and moved a bit quicker. Maybe she is in there Willow thought but quickly knew it wasn't the case once she was in the door way. She saw the older girl from earlier, and a younger girl, maybe a few years younger than herself. Willow stood there, her eyes wide. Who are these people? She asked herself.

Savayia looked up as Brokens sister, Willow came into the room. "Oh uh hey kid" Savayia said carefully. "I dont think we met. Im Savayia and this is my sister Autumn" She said, trying to smile but she wasnt very good with kids. "Your sister is downstairs but" She stopped suddenly. She may freak out if she sees Broken. She thought. "Shes a little hurt but she´ll be okay" She said. Was that the right thing to say or did I just scare her?? She asked herself with a little bit of worry. Then she remembered Brokens friend was probably still on the stairs. "Im sure shes going to be up in a second" She said quietly. She felt Autumn stiffen and she rubbed her back a little

Willow smiled, its wasn't tired or pained or fake, it was kind and heartfelt. "Hello Savayia and Autumn, I'm Willow" She said, her voice sweet. "Broken? Hurt?" She asked, almost laughing. "Thats not a big surprise, I'm sure she'll be fine," She added. Willow looked to Autumn and took a caustious step forward, not out of nervousness or fear, but because she didn't want to scare the girl. She put her hand out to shake, just enough that Autumn could reach Willow if she wanted to. "Its nice to meet you" She said with a smile.

Autumn watched her closely and stared at her hand for a second before hesitantly shaking it. "Yeah you too" She said carefully.

Willow looked at Savayia with a smile. "Thank you, I'm honestly surprised Broken has let you in, you must be truly special" She said before Savayia left. Willow then turned to Autumn. "You don't need to be scared," She said in a comforting tone. "Do you want me to stay?" Willow asked.

Broken looked up to see Savayia coming down the stairs, she tried to ignore the sinking feeling that Savayia was going to see the scars on her back. She offered a pained smile "Hey" she said.

She hesitated, ready to say no but then just shrugged. "Um.. sure" She said slowly and she felt herself relax a little. "So... you live here?" She asked Willow curiously

Savayia could hear the pain in Brokens voice as she tried not to show it and she wondered how bad it was. "Hey. Hows that bullet wound?" She asked

Willow nodded as she took a couple more tentative steps and sat on the corner of the bed. "Yeah, I do now, and depending on what Savayia decides, you might to" She said. "I'm glad theres another kid here, I love my sister but shes usually busy protecting whoever needs to be protected." Willow added.

"Well I think I stopped the bleeding, but the bullet itself is still stuck in there" She said as she pulled the hand towels away from the wound. "I hope your not squemish" Broken added with a chuckle.
