“SAW! WHERE IS SAW?!” I blink, remembering he told me Saw didn’t want to see me.

“I’m glad you remember me…I’m sorry to bother you, but I have ques?—”

“Fuck your questions! I want to know how the state could allow this to happen to my baby?!” my mom shouts at the top of her lungs, making me wince.

“Please ma’am, I know you’re upset b?—”

“UPSET?! I AM BEYOND UPSET! I AM LIVID! I WILL BE SUING THE?—”

“Ma’am, please calm down. You’re causing distress to the patient!” the nurse states and my sisters stand up, knockingtheir chairs over, and the loud bang of their chair causes me to grow nauseous.

“BITCH, WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE TELLING MY MAMA WHAT TO DO?!”

“GERICA, CHILL! ROBIN ALREADY WENT CRAZY AND MARCUS ALREADY IN JAIL! YOU NEED TO SIT YO ASS DOWN SOMEWHERE BEFORE YOU WIND UP LIKE THEM, FUCKING WITH THESE WHITE PEOPLE.” my brother poorly tries to explain.

“Please, you are being a disturbance!” the nurse raises her voice as well.

“Bitch, do you have any idea what my daughter has been through?! She was kidnapped and raped and is now pregnant by a murderer who killed himself after!”

“PREGNANT?! WAIT, KILLED HIMSELF?!” I fight to sit up in bed, heart racing. “Saw isn’t dead! You said th?—”

“That nigga dead!” my brother sneers and it’s as if someone throws a bucket of ice water on me.

“Wh-what… no…” I turn to Detective Woods, heart knocking against my chest as he runs his hands through his blond hair, cursing.

“Ms. Grey, I’m sorry. I was going to wait to tell you b?—”

“Wait to tell me th-that Saw is dead?” I stand, walking over to him on legs that don’t feel like mine, clutching his chest, waiting for him to tell me they’re lying.

“We found his burnt body and we have identified his re?—”

“NO! NO! NOOOOOOO!” I stagger back but he catches me as my mama faints or whatever the fuck she tries to do as chaos ensues.

“Ms. Grey! Ms. Grey! Please calm down!” Detective Woods pleas as he tries to contain me as I fight him off.

“NO! YOU’RE LYING! SAW ISN’T DEAD! SAW IS NOT DEAD! HE SAID HE’D NEVER LEAVE! HE SAID IF I LET GO, HE’LL TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR ME! NO!”

“I’M GOING TO SUE YOU BASTARDS! I’M GOING TO SUE YOU AND THE STATE FOR PAIN AND SUFFERING! I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU BASTARDS FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE TO MY BABY!” my mother screams louder than me, but I don’t care.All I want is Saw!

“SAAWWWWW!” I scream as nurses come in and hold me down. Suddenly, I feel that same prick in the neck, and I go limp, but my mind remains on Saw.He’s not dead… he can’t be!

Three weeks later…

“What the fuck do you mean you won’t sue?!” my mama glares at me, but I stare at her with blank eyes.

“I said what I said, Mama… I’m. Not. Suing. So please st—” She bangs her fist on the table, glaring at me.

“Then who the hell gon’ take care of that bastard, huh?! You just gon’ let them do you like this and not take anything in return?” she seethes, and I snort because I can see it. I can see she doesn’t really give a damn about me… neither her or my brother and sisters, who have been leeching off me, only care about a quick cash grab.

Every time they came to visit and when I wasn’t put under for supposedly losing my mind, they would ask me about suing the state for Saw being able to break out. They never once asked how I was doing. They never mentioned going to see if Marcus was okay after what happened, and they for damn sure don’t give a damn about my baby.

I have seen them on every talk show that will invite them cry, weep, and whine about my condition. They have milked the fact that I am pregnant and say they are going to get the money for my baby to help me cope, but that’s a lie…

It’s the lie I tell Marcus… that we’re good, but I can’t stand them. I have been by their side because even if I don’t like them, they’re my blood, but I have never hated someone more than I hate them now.

From the despicable way they speak about my unborn child, to their money-hungry behavior…I fucking hate them…

“Mama… I. Will. Not. Sue,” I force out and she reels back, slapping me, causing my head to go to the side and the inside of my jaw to be cut on my tooth.
