Chapter 53

After Dante had told me where they had been, Adam and I had wasted no time in getting four of the house and rushing over to get Hayley. The entertainment square that they were at was not too far away from my house, luckily. It had taken us less than ten minutes to get there.

However, it had felt like the longest teninutes of my existence. This has never ever happened before. I was never away from he when he legs would trouble her and I could only imagine her sense of helplessness going through an episode when I was not around her to manage her and calm

her down.

With each mile that Adams car had eaten up, my anxiety had grown but so did the relief knowing that I would be close to her at any moment now. Both emotions fought with each other like a relentlessly game of tug of war with neither one winning.

“This was exactly what I had feared, Adam. Hayley would go through this by herself with out any warning.” I rested my head against the glass and watched the street pass by.

“Did you say this to Dante?” He asked and I shook my head but realised that he was looking at the road ahead.

“No, I did not. I didn’t think he would understand and all it would have lead to was another conflict between us,” I mumbled and heard Adam grunt something beneath his breath.

“We will get to her in no time. We’re almost there.” Adam’s said in a calm tone when I knew he wanted to say much more than just that but he was holding back until the situation was under control.

A few minutes later we had arrived and Adam quickly parked the car before we both got out and headed right in to the amusement square. I nearly ran through the crowd of people to get to the spot that Dante mentioned he had been at with Hayley. Near the elephant ride before the roasted peanuts stand.

I found the elephant ride, caught sight of it as I rushed through the people then located the peanut stand and scanned the area between and that was when I had saw her.

My Hayley sitting on the floor with her head hung low and tears running down her face. I watched as she tried to move her legs and failed which only made her cry in helplessness. Dante was crouched down beside her whispering some thing in her ear but she shook her head leaving Dante defeated. I was certain that he had been offering her some solution and she refused wanting to figure this out by herself.

When she had spotted me as she looked up and blinked, a few more tears ran down her face. I rushed over to her ignoring the stares and whining of people around as I pushed through them. rushed over to her ignoring th

“Hayley.” I called out to her.

“Mama!” She cried in relief. “M- My legs are not- I can’t move them.” She sobbed breathlessly.

I knew that reasoning with her in her current state of mind was not the answer so I settled on the floor next to her.

I slid my arm around her shoulders and she cuddled in to me still shaky from her sobs and overwhelmed at the ordeal.
