Maeve Adams

Part 38

You woke up on the table in the middle of the room, shit this is embarrassing.

You looked around and saw everyone crowded around you, then, you felt a pain in your head. I must have hit my head. You began to sit up but your dad said, "Maeve, lay back down, relax for a minute."

You continued to sit up and you pushed him away, "No, I'm fine."

No you weren't.

You still felt faint but you tried your best to hide it. You got off the table and said, "I'll be ready in just a minute-"

They knew best to leave you alone since you did have a bit of a temper. You went to the bathroom and splashed the water in your face and whispered to yourself, "Get it together Maeve! You idiot!" You then looked at yourself in the mirror and hit your palms on the edge of the sink and yelled furiously, "Damnit!" You began to pace around the room, "Pull yourself together! This is the least you can do, ungrateful bitch!"

You then began to hit your head on the wall in hopes that you would pass out again and hit your head on the way down until you heard a knock at the door, "Maeve, can I come in?" It was JJ. You mumbled an answer and she came in. She knew what you were doing.

You gave her a look that told her, 'I can't do this anymore.' You tried to stay calm and say, "I'm sorry, I'm ready-"

As you walked towards the door, she said, "No. Get out all of your emotions. Don't bottle them up, it'll make it worse. Just let it out now-"

You looked at her confused and asked, "What?"

She sat on the floor and said, "Let it all out."

You said, "I don't know-"

She answered, "Yes you do. Now tell me, what's making you upset, what is the core of it-"

You began, "I'm just mad that I'm having to do this. That's all-"

She began to speak with more enthusiasm, "No, it's more than that. Explain what you mean by all of this-"

You began to pace, "This! I'm tired of having to deal with my mom! I don't want to talk to her anymore!"

She said, "Keep going-"

You began to speak loudly, "After- after she left me with those men- who...who raped me- and beat me! And now I have to still deal with all of her bullshit! She's the one who caused all of that and I thought I would be free from all of that after I moved in with my dad but she just has to screw everything up!"

She nodded and you yelled, "I'm tired of cleaning up her own goddamn messes! I always lose to her! She always tortures me somehow...mentally and physically! I just want her to die! And I don't- I don't want it to be quick-"

She stood up shocked and put a finger over your mouth, "Maeve, I know you're mad and you have reason to be, but you have to keep that part to yourself."

You looked down in tears, "I'm sorry it's just- I'm tired of her coming back into my life and I just want her to be gone-" She noticed you clench up your fists and she just brought you in a hug in hopes to calm you down. S

he whispered ever so calmly but seriously, "Don't tell anyone about that. Keep your cool...we can't have you in prison." You nodded and she said, "You ready? The jet is about ready." You nodded and followed her out of the bathroom to see your dad standing right there.

He gave you a hug and whispered, "Maeve, I know I keep telling you I'll get you away from her but she is good. So, I can't promise anything, but I'm hoping she will just tell us who it is and this can all be over-"
