“Pick it up right now! Do you hear me?!”
I stood still and did not move.
To my surprise, Caelan walked over, shoved me hard, and yelled, “Nellie, you stupid cripple! Stop acting like you can’t hear me!
“I’m giving you a way out, but you won’t take it! Why are you acting so high and mighty?!”
Caelan pushed me hard, and I lost my balance. I stumbled back a few steps and hit my lower back on the corner of the table.
I groaned and fell to the floor. I shook from the pain.
When Caelan saw this, he panicked and quickly came over to help me.
He apologized, “I went too far earlier. Don’t take it to heart.”
So, he knew that calling me a cripple was too much.
I got this leg injury while trying to save Caelan during a camping trip when he fell into a ravine.
At first, he was grateful and always avoided mentioning my leg injury.
But then, Isabel showed up.
She was the first to call me “Miss Cripple”.
Caelan did not scold her. Instead, he laughed with her.
After that, he often called me a cripple to insult me.
Caelan wanted to pick me up and take me to the hospital, but just then, his phone rang.
