"Son, what are you doing with that gun? Put it away this instant!" Jackie yells and commands her son, but Jacob does not listen.
"No!" Jacob said in defiance, pouting his lips.
"Are you disobeying your own mother? I raised you better than this." She tries intimidating her son, using verbal discipline.
"I am done with all this!" He yells at her. Jackie had no choice but to put me down, I had to catch my breath and recover from her tight chokehold. She walks towards her son and crotched down to his level.
"Why are you behaving like this? You did not say anything before, but now, you want to question things." She said. Even though I hate her, I do somewhat agree on why he waited so long say something. He could have said something before she started terrorizing everyone. Though, I do get why he stayed so quiet.
He is a young child and children are vulnerable beings. Plus, everything he has witnessed has been disturbing and traumatic. Also, he did not want to get in trouble with Jackie or Graves, especially with his mother. That is his only blood related family member he has left, as far as I know. Trying to go against his mother while she was doing all that damage was going to be fatal to him.
I feel so bad for Jacob. He is so young and never deserved to be a part of this whole mess. A child like him should be playing outside with his friends, getting a good education, and enjoying his childhood. But his mother and even his father ruined that by doing twisted things to people.
Every child deserves to have parents, but not all parents deserve to have children. His parents are the worst of the worst. Nothing that Jackie says or does will change my mind that she is a horrible human being. I do not care what happens to her.
"I am done with all the violence and blame game. It is time to stop, forgive, and let it go." He told her in front of her face. I love that he was not backing down from his mother.
"Why are you going against me? What did I ever do to you to make you side against me?" She questioned, holding his shoulders tightly.
"Let go of me!" He yelled, violently shaking the gun at her. She had no choice but to back away.
"Son, that is no way how to talk or treat your mother. You apologize to me this instant!" She aggressively yelled at him.
"Not until you apologize to all of the agents, Dawn's family members, and especially Dawn herself." He said, still not showing any fear to her.
"You know what, I did not want to do this. But you have crossed the line." She said. Got up from the floor and slapped her son hard in the face. A gasped left my mouth as I could not believe she would slap her own son. Jacob started crying loudly and turned his back away from his mother.
Hearing his cries broke my heart. Jackie slapping her own son proves to me that she has no soul or respect for anyone. I thought she was doing all this violence towards me to avenge her son. Now, all that meant nothing.
"Look at me when I'm speaking to you." She threatened, but he continued to cry. "If you do not turn around, I will hurt you some more. Do you want that to happen?"
He still ignored her, which made her angrier. She was taking off her belt, wrapping some parts around her hands. She was ready to strike him. I could not just sit here and witness a child get abused by a parent. I needed to stop her right now. I got up from the floor and tackled her to the ground.
"Go! Get away from your mother!" I told him and he stormed off to another place.
"You ruined my whole life. My husband is dead and now, my son hates me. It is all because of you!" She continued putting the blame on me. I did not say anything to her. I needed to shut her up because she's acting like a stubborn child. It is embarrassing that a literal child was more mature than the mother. What type of sense does that even make?
I thought that once you get older, you become more wiser. But that was not the case for Jackie. I tried my hardest to reason with her, even though she did not deserve it. But at least I tried to listen and understand her problems. I tried to see if she could change her heart and not hurt or kill people. I even tried to defend myself to her multiple times. But she refused to accept my apology and constantly verbally and physically attacking me. I had enough of it!
I would have killed her, but killing her was not worth my time. She has been a nuisance in my life that I do not want to think or associate myself with her. Killing her would prove her point that I was nothing more than a murderer. I did not want to give her any satisfaction. I am not a monster, I am not a demon, I am not Lucifer, I am not evil, and I am not a murderer!
I am just going to choke her out until she is unconscious. I do not want her dead, but I want her to fade and stay in place. She tried fighting back from my grip on her throat, but I did not want her to defend herself.
A few seconds later, I could see her eyes slowly shutting in. She was beginning to fade, but I did not let go of her neck. I wanted her to be fully passed out until I let go.
As soon as she was beginning to fade, I blacked out.
