Thomas stood still in the hallway downstairs. Yuri’s words hurt him more than he could have ever imagined. He never thought any words could affect him so deeply. But she was right. He didn’t know anything about love, until he met Yuri, until today. And he never did love anyone in his life. He didn’t know how to love. His father had been in a gang. He had lost money so he began taking money from Mrs. Vacur’s side of the family. He killed Mrs. Vacur’s parents and was later assassinated by the gang leader. Mrs. Vacur had sent Thomas under the protection of a friend, before jumping into a lake and died. Thomas lived for twelve years being tortured and enslaved by the couple who he thought was his parents. Then the couple lost everything from a robbery and sold him to Mrs. Vacur’s aunt, an elderly woman who was too old to care for him. On her deathbed, she revealed the truth Thomas had never known. The old lady gave Thomas her small fortune and he attended the orchestra. Aaron Spiel, upon hearing Thomas’s tragic life, took no money from him. He never did love. Only carrying a little thankfulness for his mother’s aunt, who had told him the truth, he had spent his eighteen years of life in misery. Nobody could understand the pain and misery he went through. Now he lived with Aaron Spiel and Mr. Spiel’s son, and for the last two years, he had lived like a human.
Emily watched silently behind the door. An angry sneer of jealousy formed her mouth and she exhaled deeply, her devious eyes shining with malice toward Yuri.

It was the next day and Yuri was finished with class. The day was stormy and gray, with thunder rumbling in a distance. She was putting her books into her locker when Emily came speeding toward her.
“ Yuri, I don’t know who did it! Come!” Emily gasped, panting slightly. Yuri turned curiously and went after Emily. Emily led Yuri to their dormitory. Yuri opened the door and gasped. Her drawere were flung open, and all her photos with Simon were torn up and it scattered the floor. Tears stung her eyes as she bend to pick the ripped pieces of her photos. Her heart hurt like crazy and she slid onto the floor. Slowly, she felt her breath catch in her throat. She couldn’t breathe.
Emily sneered behind Yuri’s back and quickly dropped a quill down onto the floor. Then gasped.
“ Look!” Emily cried, bending to pick up the pen again as Yuri turned around.
“ What is that?” she asked wearily.
“ this pen, it’s—it’s—“ Emily stammered.
“ Whose is it, Emily? Whose is it?” Yuri demanded, grabbing the pen.
“ It’s Thomas’s!” Emily said slowly, studying Yuri’s face. Her eyes widened in horror and anger. Then Yuri ran out of the room.
Emily’s lips curled into a sneer.

Yuri burst throught Thomas’s door ot find him studying. His dormmate Willis was sprawled over his fortune cards. They both looked up in alarm.
“ Thomas Vacur!” Yuri shrieked, tears flooding down her cheeks.” How dare you do that!”
“ What are you talking about, Yuri?” Thomas asked, looking at her, puzzled.
“ Don’t deny it! Yesterday we fought and today I find my room wrecked and Simon’s pictures torn up!” she screamed.
“ Knew something like that would happen.” Willis said.
“ Shut up, Willis. Your room wrecked?” asked Thomas, concerned.” But who—“
“ And guess what I found?” Yuri went on.” This!” she threw the quill down onto the floor. Thomas stared at it.
“ That is not mine!” he cried, enraged.” Yuri, this is treacherous!”
The girl covered her ears.” You know what’s treacherous? Is why I ever see good in a horrid person like you!” she snapped, before bolting out the door, leaving Thomas staring after her.

Yuri cried and cried that night. she didn’t return to her dormitory tonight, because she knew Emily would be smirking. So Yuri spend the night walking around the area. She was not exactly angry, just heartbroken. She had trusted Thomas with her heart, and also secretly loved him. Yet he did something beyond horrid, and now the shadow of Simon wieghed her down even more. How could she have been so gullible and naive?
Just then Yuri felt the same pain strike her as it did when she found her wrecked photos. Her legs suddenly felt weak, and they buckled beneath her. Her energy drained out of her slowly and she fell down.
A loud hond threw Yuri out of her pain. She suddenly realized she was kneeling in the middle of the street and a car was roaring down the road. Maybe this is how Simon died, she thought vaguely. A loud honk and a blinding flash of light. Maybe that’s it. The car horn honked again but Yuri didn’t have the strength to move. White light blinded her and she knew nothing. Her fortune card fell out of her pocket and was crushed by the wheels of the car.

Thomas ran down the dark street, searching frantically for Yuri. He had never felt so worried in his life. His platinum hair flew behind him and he breathed heavily, but didn’t stop. Far away, he heard a honk, but a car was nowhere in sight. A horrible feeling struck his head and he began to run, shouting Yuri’s name. But there was no response.
Far ahead, lit by the dim street lights, Thomas saw what seemed like a large obstacle in the middle of the street. He ran closer and saw it was Yuri. There was little blood, but there was blood at the corner of her mouth. Thomas was horrified. He picked up her body and begin to run again, ignoring the cramp in his side. He ran faster than he ever had in his life, even holding Yuri. He felt a prickling tear at the corner of his eye, but it didn’t fall.

Ambulance sirens screeched as it sped down the road. Inside the ambulance was a Yuri on a stretcher, and beside her was Thomas, Aaron Spiel and Emily Radley. The three waited impatiently outside the emergency room.
Thomas paced back and forth with a furrowed brow, while Aaron Spiel peered anxiously at the door. Emily sat still as stone, deep in thought. Yuri was now in the emergency room, and it was all something that started out with her. If she hadn’t wrecked Simon’s photos out of her jealousy, Yuri wouldn’t have left and got hit by the car. Damn it, Emily thought. She just had to get hit, didn’t she? But she probably knew about Emily anyway. Yuri just wanted Thomas to like her more, that’s why she got hit on purpose. And plus, who told her to go outside at night anyway, Emily thought sneeringly. Yes, that was it. Nothing on earth happens just when it’s not suppose to. Life isn’t that on target. Emily got angrier as she thought about it. That little withch! She won’t get Thomas! Not while Emily Radley is around.
Three hours later the doctor came out to meet them.
“ Miss Kowan is in no danger,” the doctor replied. Thomas sighed with relief.” There is no need to worry her mother. Just a sprained ankle, a slightly twisted back and a few bruises won’t kill her. Yuri has been transferred to a regular ward. You may visit her.”
