Sentencing
Three years ago, Hannah was hit by a drunk driver. His punishment was atrociously minuscule in comparison to the life-altering injuries she sustained. Just 5 years of probation and a $10,000 fine for a drunk with a bad temper versus paralyzation from the waist down for a star high school athlete.
The day he was sentenced, Hannah picked up the last trophy she’d ever earned - ever would earn - and threw it through her bedroom window. She cried hysterically, mourning the muscles that were already atrophied and the races she’d never get to run.
