We sit

We sit

No one speaking

An awkward silence

I think should I do it?

I look at you

Your face looks...

Looks angry

I ask what did I do wrong

You get up from you seat

I do the same

I take a step back

Scared

I see an unknown rage in you eyes

I take a step back

You move towards me

What did I do?

I take a step back

My back connects to the wall

No more steps back

in my face

Staring

I don't take my eyes of yours

I see...

Vengeance, anger

What do you see in my eyes

Fear, confusion, maybe hurt?

Will it make you stop?

You raise your hand

I close my eyes

Your fist must be magnetic

It stays connected to my face

Pause

I look at you

I think...

What am I doing

Why do you hate me

Why do you hurt me so

Your hand in mid air

Play

It comes crashing down on my face

You look at my round belly

You knee me in the stomach

I fall to my knees

Why do you hate my child

Your child

Our child

You walk away

A few minutes later you come back

Concern in your face

I sit

Crying

Bleeding

I need help

You knell down

I look at you

You say sorry

Does that change anything

My baby

Your baby

Our baby dying inside me

Do you care

You killed my baby

Now in the hospital

You tell the doctors I fell

Hours later they tell me the child is gone

You killed my baby

What did I do

I awake

In my bed

Sweating

My hand flies to my protruding belly

Baby's alive

I look at you sleeping

I get out of bed but some clothes on

I get out of there

I can't let you kill my baby

It was a dream

I wasn't real

But somehow I knew it was gonna come true

I don't know where to go

But I'm out of here

Bye bye

I'm going home

I'm ready to let go

I loved you

But not enough to risk my child and I's life
