"what do you mean 'they hurt you' jo? who hurt you?" jack stood up.

"the people in the psychiatric ward. they— they hurt me, bad." jonah cried.

"how did they hurt you?" jack attempted to soothe jonah by rubbing his back. jonah immediately hissed in pain.

jack lifted up jonah's shirt to see his back. jonah's back was filled with cuts and bruises.

"jonah, how did you get these?" jack caressed his back in a spot that wasn't black or blue nor had a bloody gash.

"they— they whipped me and beat me as a punishment. i tried to get away, but they would let me." jonah's sobs filled the room.

everyone was silent. nobody knew what to say in this situation. all they knew, was that they had to tell someone about his before it got worse.
