Neither of us spoke much as the streetlights flashed across the windshield and dusk settled over the city.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\"><\/div>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"85\">Maya rested her head against the window and looked exhausted and broken in a way that made my heart ache for her. Halfway there, she spoke quietly and asked if I was mad at her.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"86\">The question shattered my heart and I pulled the car to the side of the road immediately. I turned to her and cupped her face in my hands while looking her directly in the eyes.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\"><\/div>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"87\">\u201cMaya, listen to me very carefully,\u201d I said firmly. \u201cYou did absolutely nothing wrong and I am not mad at you at all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"88\">Her lip quivered as she tried to speak, but I told her again that what happened was not her fault. She began to cry again and I held her until she finally calmed down enough for us to continue the drive.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\"><\/div>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"89\">Inside my chest, a deep anger was beginning to grow toward whoever had hurt my daughter. I was also terrified because deep down, I already suspected that the truth was more painful than I could imagine.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"90\">My sister Rachel opened her door before I even had a chance to knock on it. One look at my face was enough for her to know that something was terribly wrong.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\"><\/div>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"91\">\u201cEmily, what is going on?\u201d she asked urgently before she saw Maya\u2019s tear streaked face. \u201cOh my God, come inside right now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"92\">She pulled Maya into a warm hug and whispered that she was safe in this house. Inside, Rachel led us to the guest room and told us we could stay as long as we needed to.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"93\">Maya curled up under the blankets almost immediately and was asleep within minutes due to sheer exhaustion. I could not sleep at all after everything I had learned today.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"94\">Hours later, Rachel found me sitting alone in the living room and asked me what had happened at the hospital. I whispered the truth to her and told her that Maya was pregnant.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"95\">Rachel\u2019s eyes widened in shock and she sat down beside me as I explained that someone had hurt our girl. The room fell into a heavy silence as I admitted that I thought it might be someone very close to us.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"96\">Rachel\u2019s expression darkened as she asked me who I was talking about. I did not answer her because I was not yet ready to say the name that was echoing inside my mind.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"97\">That name was Robert, and the thought of it made me feel like I was drowning in a sea of betrayal. Meanwhile, in another part of the country, winter was arriving slowly in the town of Oak Creek.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"98\">The first frost coated the rooftops like powdered sugar and the mornings carried a sharp chill that crept into your bones. However, the little yellow house at the end of Maple Lane never felt cold even in the dead of winter.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"99\">Every afternoon, the yard was filled with the voices of children laughing and volunteers chatting while they moved water jugs. What had once been a quiet corner of the town had become the beating heart of a community project.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"100\">It had all started with fourteen water jugs and a man named Harold Thompson. Harold sat on a wooden bench in his yard while wrapped in a thick brown coat and watching the activity with gentle eyes.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"101\">His hands rested on a worn wooden cane but his posture was still proud like a man who had spent a lifetime standing tall. Across the yard, Mike Foster lifted two water jugs onto a wagon as several neighborhood kids hurried to help him.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"102\">\u201cEasy there, kids,\u201d Mike laughed as he watched them struggle with the weight. \u201cThose jugs weigh more than you do right now.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PART2: My 15-year-old daughter kept complaining of na:usea and stomach pain.
