Jowalked into her house, she knew that her parents flow to new york that morning and that her sibling were out for dinner so the house was empty. she walked into her room and opened a drawer, she found a lot of photos. photos of her and jj smiling naked in her bed, photos of when sarah and her were little, goofy photos of the pogues, every beautiful memory of the happy time before sarah and john b's death, before the gold...
jo closed the drawer and went to the kitchen, she opened the fridge looking for something to eat but her eyes landed on a bottle of red wine. after some seconds on pushing herself away from the fridge, her hand took the wine, then a glass and the antidepressant in her bag.
jo sat on the couch with the glass full of red wine in one hand and three pills in the other. she slowly looked at the pills and felt the pain go through her body. memories of her break up with jj and all their previous fight, memories of the night shoupe told her that sarah and john b were dead, the day her mother came back, all the fights and the words that her father used to say, how useless she was...
placing the three pills in her mouth and drinking the wine to swallow them, she felt empty and guilty for a couple of seconds then relaxed. in a bit the pain was gone, she was breathing slowly, her mind was empty until her eyes landed on a photo of charles, monica and liam. her mother left her with her abusive father to build a new life just to come back when it was too late.
anger filled her body, pain going through her veins. there was still half of the bottle of pills, she took one, then two more, then three, four, almost all the bottle with half of the bottle of wine. UNTIL EVERYTHING STOPPED, HER BREATHING STOPPED, HER HEART STOPPED, HER BRAIN STOPPED, HER EYES CLOSED AND HER BODY COLLAPSED ON THE FLOOR
lip entered the house first, laughing at something stupid that carl said. his eyes landed on her sleeping sister on the couch and smiled at her, glad that she came back, then his eyes landed on the bottle of wine and the three pills on his mother's carpet. "ian, take them upstairs" he ordered to his little brother who hadn't seen jo
"why?" ian asked
"just-do it, now!" he almost yelled as he ran to his little sister passed out on the couch. ian took his three little siblings and led them upstairs, but he looked for one second to his brother who was trying to wake up his sister.
the four kids arrived in front of debbie's room and ian talked "take them into your room and don't come out until i tell you"
"why?" debbie asked
"go" he ordered and ran downstairs
lip had sat jo straight trying to wake her up when ian entered the leaving room "what happened?" the little one asked
"i think she overdosed" lip answered as tears fell down his cheeks
