Hurt
(ARIELLE'S POV)
After Ashley left, Jared glanced at the door to ensure she was out of earshot before turning back to face me, his voice low. "What's going on?"
"What do you mean?"
"This whole thing about neglecting you for Sofia. What's bothering you? I thought we sorted this out." His brows furrowed deeply, but there was no frustration in his voice-just confusion.
I glared at him. "You should know exactly what I mean, Jared. I had a fatal fall, all thanks to Sofia, and instead of helping me, you ran to her. And after that? You left me with Ashley to be with her. What am I to you, Jared? A joke?"
Jared's eyes narrowed confused. "Arielle, listen," he said, more measured now, as if picking his words carefully. "Sofia is pregnant. I couldn't risk anything happening to her or the baby. That's why I went to her first. But I made sure both of you got to the hospital. I called Ashley to stay with you because I couldn't be in two places at once. It made sense to leave someone familiar with you while I stayed with Sofia. She had no one else."
I scoffed. "Why the hell is Sofia in the hospital? I mean, I'm the hurt one here, and not her."
"She's in the hospital because she got hurt trying to save you."
Hold on, did I just hear Sofia tried to save me? Maybe I misheard because if I recall correctly, she pushed me down the fucking stairs.
"Are you kidding me? Did you just say Sofia tried to save me?"
"You were unconscious and oblivious to what happened, but for all it's worth, you owe Sofia a huge appreciation."
At this point, I was losing my cool. "What are you talking about, Jared?"
"Fine, I will explain. You were angry last night for reasons I can't fathom, and was about to leave with your bag when you slipped off the stairs. Sofia ran to rescue you, but slipped in the process too."
