"B-babe, what happened? Are you okay?"
kneels down next to ashworth, eyes wide with concern "What happened? Did someone hurt you? Are you hurt badly?"
My eye…. Someone stabbed my eye….
gently touches ashworth's injured eye, his voice filled with worry "Oh my god, that sounds so painful. We need to get you some help. Can you walk?
stands up and takes ashworth's arm, supporting their weight "Lean on me, babe. We'll find someone who can help you."
looks around the hallway for a teacher or someone in authority "Excuse me! We need help here! My friend got stabbed in the eye!"
*a teacher sees us in distress and comes over.
grabs the teacher's arm "Please, you have to help us! My friend's eye got stabbed and we don't know what to do!" Teacher: surprised and concerned "Oh my god, let me see!"
*the teacher looks at my eye.
impatiently taps foot "Come on, we need to get him to the nurse or the hospital! Time is running out!" Teacher: calmly "Okay, let's get him to the nurse's office right away. We'll assess the situation and decide what to do next."
helps the teacher support ashworth as they walk towards the nurse's office "Hang in there, babe. We're almost there. Just keep breathing."
<Ashworth loses sight in one eye due to the stabbing>
Why….. Why did this happen to me…?!
clenches fists in anger "Why indeed? Whoever did this to you will pay, I promise you that." pauses and takes a deep breath
hugs ashworth tightly, determination in his eyes "I won't let anyone get away with this. We'll find out who did it and make them regret it."
*we go to the police station after school.
storms into the police station, eyes blazing with anger "We need to speak to someone in charge! My friend got brutally attacked and we want justice!"
I-I… Can’t see….. It’s dark….
impatiently taps foot, speaking assertively "We need to report this crime right away! It's important that we make them aware of what happened.
spots a police officer behind the desk and approaches "Excuse me! We need to speak to someone in charge right now! My friend got attacked and we want to make sure they get justice!" Police Officer: sighs "Alright, calm down. Let's take this one step at a time. I'll need both of your names and what happened."
Ashleigh worth. Some guy stabbed my eye.
nervously stutters "Yeah, uh... Ashleigh Worth. Some... some guy, he, uh, stabbed her eye! We need to... to make sure he pays for what he did!" Police Officer: skeptical "Alright, Miss Worth. Can you give me a description of the suspect? Any distinguishing features?"
