Chapter 88
P.O.V/ Kim Austin:
Four Months later..
It's been Four months since Kelly left me and Mom for dead in my backyard. The man who lives next door to me had just pulled up in his driveway when he heard the last of the fight. Kelly had fled right afterward. He rushed to the backyard where he found me and Mom unconscious, bloody, and beaten. He called 911 and waited for them to arrive. When I came to briefly I saw Tanya and the other Paramedic performing CPR on me with the CPR bag. I saw Mom as the other Paramedics worked on her but I lost consciousness again and passed out. I woke up in the hospital a few hours later with Kyle, Jane, and Jason in the room with me. I told them everything that happened... That Kelly suddenly appeared in the backyard... She confessed her true feelings to me and when I politely turned her down she lost it and attacked me... She was trying to force herself on me like she did when I was fourteen. But I refused to let her do that again so I fought back viciously and we fell out the bedroom window and landed in the backyard. When we hit the ground at the same time I felt something in my right shoulder and my right leg snap. That was my shoulder dislocating badly and my Femur bone cracked at the top right above my kneecap. She got up and continued to beat me while I was down. She stomped me in the ribs and broke about five of them. Then she proceeded to get on top of me and punch me in the face. About that time Mom had showed up and heard the fight in the backyard and rushed back to help me. She tackled Kelly off of me in a fit of rage and began to viciously attack Kelly as they landed on top of the wooden picnic table. Kelly kicked her off and they were both up swinging blows. I couldn't move because of my shoulder or my leg and I couldn't use my powers because I was too weak. Kelly had hit Mom in the stomach and then headbutted her in the face which made her eyes water and she fell to the ground on her back where Kelly jumped on top of her and began to viciously beat her up right in front of me as I screamed for her to stop.. She stomped Mom right in the chest and she screamed out in agony then she did it again and Mom gasped as she lost her breath. By that time I was helplessly crawling over to them as Kelly punched her in the face over and over again as blood flew out on the grass. After one last hit, Kelly jumped up and kicked Mom right in the face and it knocked her out cold. Kelly pulled out a gun the same gun she had threatened me with in her Trans am that time when we were teens. I begged her not to shoot Mom... But Kelly blamed me for the whole thing saying that it's my fault and that My Mom has to pay the price for it. She fired the gun into Mom's back several times and I gained just enough strength to lunge myself up at her and knock her to the ground. I landed on my shoulder injuring it more, Kelly got on top of me put both hands around my throat and choked me until I passed out. I was hurt pretty bad but Mom was in worse shape than me... When Kelly stomped her in the chest she broke some of her ribs and gave her a Pulmonary Contusion on her left lung which was put on her the Ventilator she was also developing pneumonia which made it worse. Kelly had broken Mom's left jaw when she kicked her in the face so her mouth had to be wired shut. She had four gunshot wounds in her back. The Doctors pulled them out and said that she was lucky that the bullets didn't hit anything major. She also had a bad Concussion from that brutal kick to the face and that's why she was unconscious. It killed me to see Mom laying in that hospital bed like that hooked up to machines and her mouth wired shut... If Kelly hadn't of lost her mind none of this would have happened and I still wouldn't feel so guilty because it's my fault why it happened... Why Mom got hurt... Why Kyle lost Kevyn.. and why Kelly lost her mind.. She was doing so well she had come a long way in five years. I was hoping that showing her how to be good would help her change but clearly, that wasn't enough.. She couldn't just be my friend and be happy for me... She wanted more than I could give her and I could never return her feelings like I once did when I was a teenager. But it wasn't love.. it was a very Toxic and unhealthy relationship and I knew I needed to get out of it before she killed me one day or worse killed someone I loved like Kyle or my family and friends. I was so blind and naïve back then... At first, I couldn't see that Kelly was bad for me but as time went on I grew up and my vision became more and more clear and I realized that Kelly was a Monster... That there was nothing good left in her... There never was... That she's a Monster that must be stopped... Today is Monday, March 25, 1991; Mom and I both are all healed up and better. My cast has been off for a Month I only spent four days in the hospital while Mom spent about three weeks everything healed up while she was there except her ribs, the gunshots, and her jaw. They were close to healing up and with us being witches we tend to heal faster than normal humans. I also have great news Mom has quit smoking. She couldn't smoke while in the hospital plus the pneumonia and the bruise on her lung would have made it hurt worse if she did smoke. She hasn't had a cigarette in four months and I'm so proud of her. Today is Dad's 41st birthday, he's taken the week off to spend with Mom who also decided to take the week off from work. They both work so much that they deserve a week together. Things have been fine the past four months but Kyle is depressed over not being able to see Kevyn. He doesn't blame me for it but I can't help but feel like it is my fault. He has told me to stop blaming myself but that's easier said than done. So much happened that day... I thought Mom wasn't gonna make it cause at first she was in bad shape and it was touch and go but thank god she pulled through because she's a strong woman. I'm on my lunch break down at the Café with Dakota. She has been so angry at Kelly for what she did... When I first told her I had to beg Dakota not to go looking for Kelly and she didn't for me. Dakota is sitting across from me at the table. She said, " I still can't believe Kelly just snapped like that and attacked you.. but then again I can because she's evil". I said, " I was hoping she would change but like always Kelly will never change.. I know everyone said she wouldn't and I feel fooled that it was all just an act". Dakota said, " Kim, you are an amazing person and you love to help people.. It's not my style so I'm not gonna say I told you so". I said, " What kills me is Kelly had so much potential to be good at times.. I mean you've seen her she had even saved your life before". Dakota said " You're right she did because she's half-human and had a little bit of a conscience but it wasn't enough... Her evil side ultimately won and it sucks I know it does because I'd say if Kelly was good that she would be pretty great and she'd be a very powerful force of good but we can't keep separating her from her human side from her Demonic side... Kelly is a Monster".. I said " I couldn't agree more". Dakota said " I'm just glad Heather is finally gone.. because Kelly and Heather on the same side? That would have been worse than anything we could imagine. With Heather's smarts and Kelly's thinking... They would have been a powerful Duo". I said " I know.. I think we were just lucky that Kelly couldn't stand Heather and wanted her out of the way". Dakota said " Now that Kelly isn't on our side anymore I'm worried about Mandi and the others". I said, " Yeah I have no doubt that they all are gonna back her up to fight against us but I'm not worried because we are all powerful and with all of us they don't stand a chance". Dakota smiles at me. After work, I drove home and took a quick shower for Dad's birthday dinner at a new Steakhouse called Logan's Roadhouse. After I was out and dressed Kyle got home and went up to take a quick shower. I put on a black North Face zip-up jacket, a navy blue t-shirt that says The Beatles in white letters, a black leather Suede belt, a pair of low-rise Lee blue jeans, and a pair of blue, black, and white Nike Air Maxes. Kyle is wearing a black t-shirt that says Rocky in red letters with Sylvester Stallone on the front, a brown leather Carhartt belt, a pair of Levi blue jeans, and a pair of black, red, and white Nike Air Jordan high-tops. We walked out and I locked the front door. Kyle and I hold hands as we walk down to the driveway to his Grey 1969 Dodge Charger. We get in and he starts it, after getting it going he pulls out of the driveway and drives to the restaurant located on Kinzel Way. We met Mom and Dad in the parking lot at Dad's truck and we walked in. Dad got us a table and we all sat down waiting for Debby, Jack, Terri, Don, Jesse, Jane, Jason, Tanya, Brice, Brandon, Shana, Jacob, Paula, Simon, Noah, and Dakota. We all had a great time talking and eating good food. Noah has become more obvious with his crush on Shana so obvious that he is flirting with her right in front of Jacob. He's not being disrespectful or anything but it's clear that he likes her. Jacob isn't a jealous guy and isn't bothered by Noah because he's just a kid. Shana is nice and just laughs off his awkward flirting cause she's got about ten years on him. Paula on the other hand doesn't seem to be too thrilled that Noah has a crush on Shana because she's older. After dinner, I overheard Paula talking to Noah around the corner in the lobby of the restaurant. Paula told Noah that he needed to calm down on the flirting with Shana that she is married and is too old for him. Saying rudely that Noah doesn't have a chance with Shana ever. Noah talked back to Paula calling her out for being rude and stormed out the door. Dakota glared at Paula as she went out after Noah. We went out in the parking lot I saw Noah in the passenger seat of Dakota's Bronco as Dakota and Paula argued beside the car. They weren't screaming at each other but Dakota told Paula she didn't have to be so rude and that she could have been more gentle with him because he's just a teenager with hormones. She also said that Paula is just angry because Noah isn't a little boy anymore that he's a young man. Dakota stood up to Paula like she's always done. Dakota got in her car driving off with Noah. Paula was so angry that she got in her and waited for Simon. Once he got in they drove away arguing. Shana watched as they drove away, She looked at me and said " I'm guessing that was about me wasn't it?" I looked at her and said, " It's not your fault.. you can't help how Noah feels.. Paula was very rude with Noah about it and she got called out by him and Dakota". Shana said, " She needs to relax.. He's just a kid and he's also a teenager who has hormones". I said, " That's what Dakota told her before she drove off with Noah in her car". Shana said, " If you ask me Paula is way too hard on both of them". I said, " You're not wrong". We hug each other and walk to our cars.
