Both Lu Qiang and Lu Feng were feeling each and every word said by Jiang Yang. Jiang Yang was immersed in those sad memories from the past while narrating the whole incident. He had painful expressions on his face. All three were holding the glasses of wine in their hands but nobody was drinking it. They seems like went back in the past when that incident happened and were witnessing it through Jiang Yang's eyes.
"When I reached the door, I didn't wait for a moment and kicked it as hard as I could. It opened easily as it was old. As the door opened completely, I saw, Yuyan was lying n.a.k.e.d on table with one boy holding her hands above her head and one was standing in between her legs without a single piece of clothes on him. The third one was standing beside like bystander and was laughing."
I was too shocked to see this. When those boys saw me, they immediately moved away from her. I saw Yuyan looked at me and went unconscious. I ran towards her as fast as I could and covered her with my jacket. I wanted to kill those bastards right at that moment but I saw Yuyan was hurt and she looked lifeless. I was scared to death. Till then guards already called for ambulance which arrived in just ten minutes, as hospital was near to that place but those ten minutes were like living in a hell for me."

My father was angry after seeing Yuyan lifeless. He straight went to the police station to see those bastards and to take action against them, while mom and me stayed back in hospital."
"Yuyan was unconscious for almost two days. She had broken ribs and internal bleeding, because those bastards hit her without a mercy. Doctors were trying their best but she was not waking up. On third day when she regained her consciousness, she was just screaming and crying not allowing anyone to come near her. My mother was shocked to see her precious daughter like this and she couldn't handle it. She blamed herself for bringing Yuyan to that country against her wish."
"Doctor had to make her unconscious to treat her wounds. It was hard for them to control her. We had to call psychiatrist too who told us she was in a trauma and it will take time to get her out of it. He said, 'she need to trust at least one person so that she won't be alone or she might get serious nervous breakdown'. In few days, my mom tried to talk to her but she didn't respond, not even to my dad. Finally I decided to try it. When I called her name and went to her, she didn't resist my presence near her. She didn't scream or tried to hide her face from me."
"All were surprised to see this. Psychiatrist said, "It was good thing and I should be with her. It was because, I was the person who saved her and i was the last one whom she saw before she got unconscious and might have thought about me as her savior. Also, since she was a child, she trusted me the most. Since that day, I became her shadow and followed her everywhere."
Lu Qiang and Lu Feng didn't disturbed him in between as Jiang Yang looked immersed in flow of the things happened in a past. He was talking nonstop.
"I got the admit from the university where I dreamed to study space science and that was the reason for my family to move to US. I rejected it as Yuyan needed me. Also, I blamed myself for her condition. Because of me, we moved to USA and because of my ignorance she had go through that condition. I decided to be with her always till the day she will need me.
She was in hospital for one month and bedridden. During that month, she didn't let anyone touch her or even come to her room too. I had to do everything for her, as she was a child and was hurt too, so forcing her was not acceptable. Whenever doctor had to do their job, even after a month of time, they had to make her unconscious and treat her wounds. Your father, uncle Lu Jinhai was there during that period, he saw her and helped my father to deal with those bastards. In few days, Grandpa Lu came to see her too and I told both, your father and your grandpa, not to tell both of you about this."
Lu Qiang and Lu Feng, both looked at him with questioning sight as asking 'Why?'
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJiang Yang answered to their unspoken question. "I didn't want you guys to see her in that condition as it was too hurting to see her like that. I was aware that you guys were calling me again and again but i didn't reply. Instead i changed my number. Why? I don't know that, but I think, I was ashamed to face both of you and also, I had to focus on Yuyan first instead of answering to anyone."
To hear it both didn't say anything and continued to hear what Jiang Yang was about to say further.
"For almost a month, I heard her crying and screaming in hospital. She was even scared of dark that I had to keep lights in room on, all the time. There was not a single night, when she didn't have nightmares. Still sometimes she get those nightmares which shake her to the core."
To this, Lu Qiang nodded and said, "I know!" He remembered all the time when he saw her suffering because of nightmares. Jiang Yang continued...
"After a month, when she came back to home, she didn't want to get out of her room. If I go out for a single moment and left her alone, she wont allow me to go. For whole six months, she didn't say a single word like she was a mute. I had to understand what she wanted or what she was thinking just by her expressions or her other actions. She never asked for anything like she was just a living corpse. I am too habitual to her behavior for all these years, that I can understand each of her thoughts and everything about her without a single word spoken.
