Madness

Chapter 6

     I could feel tears starting to form at the corners of my eyes. "I-I k-killed d-d-dad?" My voice cracked and I could feel tears streaming down my face. The nurse nodded solemnly. I squeezed my eyes shut and tried to block out the world.

"How could I? My own Dad?" I sobbed into my hands. "Y-your right I-I should s-stay h-here. I'm t-too dangerous." I was hiccuping uncontrollably. I started to feel lightheaded. "Ms. Greystroke are you- I didn't hear the rest as I passed out.

I woke up to the beeping of the machine. I turned my head to the side and saw Jeremy sitting in the chair. I frowned when I saw his condition, it looked like he had been hit by a bus. His black hair was sticking up all over the place and his shoulders were slumped. I realized he had buried his face in his hands.

"He probably hates me for what I did to dad." I closed my eyes and tried not to let the grief and shame overwhelm me. I heard pounding and I opened my eyes, I gasped. Jeremy was kicking and pounding on the glass with all his might, staring straight at me. He had a crazed look in his eyes.

I choked back a sob. "Jeremy." I whispered. The glass must of been soundproof because I could see his lips moving but couldn't hear anything he was saying. I saw two burly security guards run up and try to reason with him. It looked like he wasn't even listening to them and he ended up punching one of them in the face.

After that he was hit with some sort of spell that made him pass out and he was dragged off. I felt tears stream down my face and there was nothing I could do to stop them. "My brother hates me and I don't even have a good reason for why he shouldn't."
