I got on the bus and paid the kind lady all the money she gave me to drive me to Weston's job. He worked inside a Mental Hospital where the patients needed to be secured to their rooms every night. The place was surrounded by fences and each entrance had two guard houses at them. I walked up to the shack told them I was there to see Weston and they let me in after much debate. I walked in the front door and the gentleman sitting at the desk told me visiting hours were over and to leave.
"Would you just tell him to call Brinsley when he leaves here?" I asked sounding pathetic.
"Yeah I'll pass the message to him." He said and I was gone just as fast as I came in.
I sat on the ground in front of his car just waiting for the time to pass. Finally I hear the voices of them leaving work. I must have nodded off again but Weston woke me with a very unhappy face.
"How long have you been here? Where's Dom?" he asked helping me up off the ground.
"Long enough and Dom is gone." I said staring off into the dark sky.
"You can't just show up here like this, you are insane to bring your pregnant ass down here in the middle of the night. What are you thinking? You're not high are you? I swear if you are high."
"I am not high!" I yell grabbing him out of his rant as his friends look on in disbelief.
"Wait Dom, the Dom the police have been after forever? You knew where he was?" His co-worker started to put the pieces together.
"Yes that Dom, but that's not why she's here." Weston said drawing the attention to something else.
"So Dom is gone she's alone and pregnant. What does she want with you?" Another asked drawing the attention back to Weston.
"I didn't want to have this discussion now but remember that girl I said I was fucking around with for a brief time? Well that's her and now we are facing our demons." He said staring at me like this was my entire fault.
The air was silent for a few minutes but you could tell everyone was thinking the same thing. There was so much going on and I wasn't sure how to make heads or tails of it. I didn't want to have this conversation anymore but had nowhere to go either. I was at Weston's mercy and I hoped he would help me out. Instead his friends chimed in some more.
"So let me get this straight. You met her out of the blue fucked around, she left and now is back only because she's pregnant?"
"More like I left Dom for a while and during that while I worked and met up with friends including Weston here. We fucked around, and then I went back to Dom when he called. Found out I was pregnant and now here we are."
"What a whore." One of his friends said while the others looked on in disbelief.
"Well now that that's out of the way lets go." he said unlocking his car for us to disappear into.
When the doors closed and the lights dimmed the tears I was holding back came falling out. There was not stopping them but I hated to seem weak in front of people.
"Let's go somewhere and we'll talk but you have to stop crying."
"You didn't stick up for me and you let your friend call me a whore. I may not have been in the right but you participated getting me this far. Thanks for your help." I said getting out of the car walking away from him and everyone.
