Mia ended the call with a harsh screech. It was the tenth time someone had told her not to waste her time and let her father die. She couldn't understand how people could be this cruel. The crime of her father was not even proven, and they were already turning their backs on them.
She raised her hand and placed it against her forehead. Tears sprang to her eyes, but she didn't dare to let them fall, for Mia knew that if she cried at that moment, she would end up falling apart. For the sake of her father, Mia needed to hold on.
"Mia!" Taryn's familiar voice echoed in the parking lot of the hospital, and Mia raised her head to look at her best friend. Upon seeing the dainty blonde, Mia couldn't help but rush forward. She raised her arms and hugged Taryn as she very much needed it.
