CHAPTER ELEVEN

Karina

“Brenda really?” I asked confusedly.

My friend was sitting on my bed, crying, her hands gripping the coverlet, used tissues scattered all around.

“I was raped,” she whispered. “I know I was.”

I shook my head uncertainly. I could hardly remember anything from the party. Not how we’d gotten there, what we’d done, or how we’d gotten back. In fact, I’d had a hallucination of Caleb and Caden appearing, my twin brothers, but they were in California. I shook my head. I was useless, with no recollection of the activities that had gone down.

“Bren, tell me what happened,” I said urgently.

“It’s this guy Cole,” she sobbed quietly. “I met him in my Anthro class, he said I was cute, that I should stop by a party his frat was hosting. He said to bring friends, so I brought you and Vera.”

Okay, I sort of remembered this. Yeah, I hadn’t wanted to go out but ended up tagging along because Brenda and Vera had been insistent, saying I was a stick in the mud, all that kind of stuff.

“And then what?” I pushed gently.

“We went up to Cole’s room,” she sobbed. “There were a bunch of guys there, the ‘made’ brothers, the ones who are seniors and do whatever they want. They made … they made … me and Vera have sex,” she said, her lips quivering, fresh tears pouring down her cheeks.

“With each other?” I said aghast. “Oh my god, how did that happen?”

“I’m not sure, it was all so fast,” she wailed. “They told me that I was a cool girl, that I should be cool with it, it was just girl on girl action. If I wanted to stay, I should take off my clothes and Vera and I should … you know, touch each other.”

“What? But why’d you do it?” I gasped.

“Because they were all watching,” she cried, bursting into fresh tears. “You know how I’ve been depressed recently, my grandmother died and school’s so stressful. I thought if I did what those boys wanted, I dunno … I’d be popular I guess and maybe Cole would like me.”

“Bren, I don’t know,” I said doubtfully. “He sounds manipulative.”

“You think I don’t know that now?” she wailed. “Of course Cole’s an asshole, he made me do things I didn’t want to, I feel so sad, disrespected and … just dirty,” she finished in a whisper.

I had no idea how I was supposed to react, but I patted her shoulder gently, trying my best to comfort and soothe.

“It’ll be fine,” I said. “Let’s go to the hospital, we can get a rape kit done.”

“Karina,” she said with a pout. “It’s too late. It’s already been days and rape kits aren’t good for more than twenty-four hours. It’s way, way, way too late. No one will ever believe me.”

“No that’s not true,” I said forcefully. “I believe you. I wish I could remember more but that pot must have gotten to me. I was out the entire time.” At least I knew that much for certain.
