The Baby Mercer

Part 17 - Fallen Apart



Louise is sitting at the kitchen table staring in a trance and Angel walks into the kitchen and he says "You're up early?" Louise replies "I couldn't sleep" and Angel nods and says "Yeah I get that. It won't be long before you pop" referring to her unborn baby and Louise nods and Louise asks "What happened to Jack? Who done this? Was this because you guys were looking for Mom's killer?" Angel deeply sighs as he says "Look it was Victor Sweet who killed Mom and who shot up the house and killed Jack" and Louise asks "Are you sure? Why would he target our family? Why would he kill the sweetest woman?" Angel says "Jerry he was in debt with Sweet, Mom found out and was interfering so he killed Mom" and Louise stands up and says "So its Jeremiah's fault?" Angel looks to a furious Louise.



Bobby, Angel and Louise are sitting in the living room when Jeremiah walks inside and says "Hey guys" and Bobby stands up from his seat on the sofa and punch Jeremiah and Louise stands up and Jeremiah falls to the floor and asks "What the hell Bobby?!" Angel says "We know Jeremiah!" Jeremiah exclaims "Know about what?!" Louise shouts as she folds her arms across her chest "We Know about your debt! To Victor Sweet!" Jeremiah's face falls and Bobby shouts "and because of your debt our family has fallen apart!" Louise stands in front of Bobby and Angel and says "I want you out of the house! I can't even look at you!" Jeremiah stands up and looks to Bobby and Angel and says "You both feel this way too?" Bobby nods and says "I'm too pissed Jerry".



Its late at night and Caleb walks into the Mercer house and walks to the kitchen and turns on the light switch to see Louise sitting at the kitchen table and Caleb stumbles back in shock and asks "Shouldnt you be in bed? Its 4am" Louise says "Where have you been?" Caleb says "Out" and Louise asks "With Sweet?" Caleb's face falls and Louise says "Did you know?" Caleb asks "Know what?" Louise stands up and says "Dont play me for a fool, you're Victor's second in command...he tells you everything. Jerry is in debt with your boss and My Mom tried to help him and Victor killed her! When my Brothers tried to track down her killer and got close to the truth he ordered the hit on my Family and killed my big Brother!" Caleb shakes his head and says "You got this all wrong!" Louise slams her hand down on the table and she shouts "Dont lie to me! Tell your boss that Bobby wants to meet him tomorrow evening! I want you outta this house and outta my life...you will have nothing to do with my baby, not anymore" and Louise walks past Caleb and walks out of the kitchen and Caleb throws everything off the kitchen counter.
