        I am 18F and have a bf 20M, I dont know where to start.. 2 months ago, me and my grandma were doing our monthly deep clean of our room, she then gave me a box full of gold jewelry and told me to keep it. She asked me to get it appraised and if the value is high, pawn it. I did as she asked, i brought my boyfriend with me and told him to pawn it for me since i didnt have valid IDs that time, we pawned it for 29k Php which was a lot, I gave some to my grandma and bought things for myself.
        So fast forward to earlier today, my mom came to me screaming and throwing stuff at me asking where her jewelries were, i gave her back the box and told her i didnt know it was hers. she slapped and beat me, right now my arms are sore and i have bruises. she said that she is going to file a case against me and my boyfriend for theft. I explained I didnt know it was hers and that my grandma gave it to me, you know whats sad is that my grandma completely denied it saying she never gave me anything. now they are teaming up and forbid me to go outside because they said they are going to file a police report and get me jailed. I am worried for my boyfriend as he also didnt know it was stolen, I am scared for him because his name is the one listed on the slip they give for pawning.

        If I try to run away will I get in more trouble? Will I and my bf go to jail? Ahat do I do now? they still continue to beat me up, my arms and legs are full of bruises and I feel so sore like I cannot move. Im contemplating whether to run away or to just stay and endure all of this and wait for the case they are going to file.

        FYI. I know people will ask why I didnt know it mas my mom’s. Me and her are not close, she doesnt think of me as her daughter and never gave any financial support to me. We live in the same house but we never talk or be in the same room together. I stopped talking to her because ever since I was a child I only got verbal abuse and as I grew older it became physical.

        Please give me an advice on what to do now.

        PS. sorry for my english, this is not my first language

                Yeah, I think she is in Philippines. Look at her comments history. She has posted the same thing in multiple similar subs.
