Shackled And Chained But Hopeful

Realization

Rameila's POV

The situation was starting to look hopeful,  I have got to admit. Zack is arrested and everything is right in the world.

I look forward for him paying for his sins. He took my sister and my chance to be a aunt. I have truly lost everything. But atleast now I have something to look forward to. Atleast now I know he will pay. 

I am anxious for all this to begin. Anxious for justice to be served. I thought as I danced naked in my back yard. I was feeling this unusual bout of happiness. I felt as if I was invincible and my womanly parts liked the way fresh breeze felt upon them.

"Free, free, I am free", I danced and shouted. My laugh must of been laced with something special because the more I laughed the better I felt. The more I danced,the more I owned my freedom and the more I shouted, the more right it felt.

Only thing would make this more special is a shower of rain. The moment I thought that, was that very moment I remembered I had sprinklers.  I turned them on and continued dancing, screaming and shouting.

"Hey shut up" my neighbor to the  left of my house shout. "And put some clothes on I got kids here", he shouted.

I ignored him and I continued.

"I am calling the  police."

"Go right ahead Sir and when you do, please ask them to send Officer Adam to arrest me", I said before bursting into laughter.

"Want any company", asked the neighbor to the right of my house.

Now there is a question worthy of my time.

"Yes you can but you would  have to take off all your clothes and come dance with me here with me."

"Is that a promise?"

"Yes."

"Well ok, I am on my way."

I watched him left the window and vanished into the house. I thought for sure that was the last I heard from him but even if it was, I didn't came. Minutes later I heard my back gate open. He entered my yard and removed his clothing as well; but he was completely bare as i was.

"Wait are you crazy too", I asked him.

"So they say", he answered before he started a strange dance.

With a shoulder shrug; I joined him.

It felt as if we were dancing for hours and as we danced our crazy dancies while mataining our personal spaces. I felt inlove with my crazy neighbor with a familiar face.
Pretty soon sirens were heard appoarching and we danced harder. I watched as Nurse Joy and Officer Adam enter through the back gate. With a look of shock on there faces they spoke, "Ramiela, Doctor  Richards." They were both in sync as if they previously practiced for this specific moment.

"Doctor Richards", I asked as I stop dancing abd turned  to face him. "But how."

"What", he said as his dance ended. "I have been living next door to you for a while now buy due to my job, most times I am rarely here. Since your recuse party is here now, I will depart."

He took up his pants and shirt and head through my gate. Nurse Joy threw a towel around me and ask Officer Adam to take me into the house. Then she followed Doctor Richards through My back gate. Minutes after she returned and Officer Adam left.

"Rameila remembered we talked about giving into your urges. Remember me tell you, not because you want to means you should", she asked

I didn't answer her and then she went on to explained how she was thankful to Doctor Richards for keeping my company. For joining me in my silliness to make sure I didn't hurt myself.  I don't know how naked dancing in sprinkler water would be deemed dangerous.  But either way I was comforted every time she said Doctor Richards.

"He is nice", I said

"You do know that's the same Doctor Richards from the hospital who had a total fit when we asked him about a Doctor  Wright", she said.

In an instant I saw why his face was family.

"The same one taking care of Zack", I asked  and when she answered I felt my high ending. "Why would he danced with me I wondered.

Zack's POV (10:PM at the hospital)
I laid in bed waiting to remember something.  in slience, no groans or nothing.  I was practically begging my brain to give me something. Remember something please remember something I said to myself.  Then I looked on my hand and saw the handcuff, at the Officer in my room and remembered I was under arrest.

I remember I am being charged for murdering my wife. This was good my memories are definitely coming back. But what else will I remember, I wonder anxiously.

In came Doctor Richards.

"How are you?", he asked as he pulled down a mask from his face. For a moment I had flashes of him Injecting something into my drip line. If this was my brain's idea of a practical Joke, I wasn't laughing. He is my doctor Injecting things is what he do, quit playing and remember something useful I grumbled to myself.

"I am not too bad", I wrote.

"Good", he said as he removed the drip from my hand. "Tomorrow you are being released into police custody. You are now stable enough to be discharged from hospital. You are soon to be their problem and no longer ours", he said as he leaved.

I wasn't looking forward to being locked up in a cell, much less to be tried for murder. Why am I being released. Am still in bandages. This has to be illegal. I looked down and glanced the healed scar on my lowered abdomen; where Doctor Wright had took my kidney from. Wait did I just remember that.
