Walking into the hospital, I held the check in my hand as I marched toward the front desk. Memories of the day before flooded my mind, and I was fucking enraged and the shit my father was willing to do to make me comply. When I visited my mother a few days ago, when she was almost on her deathbed, I was beside myself. I almost lost it.

" I don't know. I'll call you and let you know, Ingrid. "

" Tristian.. "

" I gotta go. "

I wished she had trusted me and that she would consider our relationship more than just surface-level. But maybe that was just me. Maybe I was in too deep. Maybe I was the one who wanted to rip her away from everyone and run away. Maybe I had grown too attached. 

We hadn't known each other for long, but it felt like forever. She made us feel like forever. And like everything in my life, I had to go and fuck it up because I could never learn to regulate my emotions.

Deciding to get out for the day, I made my way over to my car and drove to the hospital to visit my mother. I was beginning to miss her voice, her smile, her laughter... I was beginning to miss her, and the more time I saw her lying lifeless in the bed, the more easily I began. to picture her dead.. gone from my life. Free from the pain, from her misery.. from everything.
