We got to the hospital. The boys were chatting and laughing. I loved what I saw. I took out the food and placed it on the bench and we started digging. I must admit Rev made the sandwich big and lovely just the way I like it. We ate and drank and Emmanuel went to dispose the containers. And Rev went to the ladies.

"Any news on mom?", I asked Sam.

"They changed her doctor after you all left. It's a special doctor. He is Dr Abraham. He's a great one. He seems to be doing his best ", he said smiling. I was shocked. I didn't know what to say.

"Sis, are you okay? What's wrong? ", Sam asked warily.

"Has he done anything with mom yet?", I asked panicking.

"Not yet. Only blood tests", my eyes grew wider.

"What? Talk to me Tee!", Sam exclaimed.

"I overheard dad talking to some doctor of that surname to finish off mom. He assured dad that tonight around seven o'clock she'll be dead", Sam stood up and ran to the reception desk.

I heard someone coughing very hard and painful. I stood up trying to listen where does that cough comes from. Gosh it's mom! Wow she's awake. I got in her ward and closed the door. There she was laying coughing and coughing. Tears took over my cheeks. I went over to her and hold her hand.

"Wat-- , wat ---, water", she asked me. Now I didn't know whether to give her or not. I took the glass of water on the table next to her bed and gave her.
She kept coughing and coughing until she coughed blood.

I went out and screamed for help. A doctor came but it was not Abraham. The machine started beeping none stop. He called other doctors and they took her to ICU.

"What the fuck is happening with my mom? Is anyone ever gonna tell me? Hey , I'm talking to you! What's wrong with her? ", Revinna pulled me back. I cried.

"Sam and Emmanuel went home to change ", Revinna told me.

"How can they leave us here? How can they leave mama here? What's wrong with everyone? ", I cried more and more. Hours went by no one was telling us what was happening with mom. 5 hours later the doctor came.
Sam and Emmanuel showed up too.

"Mrs Corebeny was poisoned and we looked at the footage. We saw Theishar Corebeny sneaking to the ward and after a few minutes she came out screaming for help. The poison was put in the water. We found that from the glass of water on the table next to her bed. All in all Theishar attempted to kill her mother therefore we have called the police ",everybody looked at me. I looked at Sam.

"I didn't do Sam. You have to believe----", I was cut by a warrant officer.

"Ms Corebeny you are under arrest. You have a right to remain silent for whatever you say may be used against you in the court of law. If you don't have an attorney, the state will provide you with one", I was handcuffed and dragged out of the hospital.

We arrived at the police station and they closed me in dark cell. I couldn't see anything. It was dark as hell. Well, if hell is that dark. I couldn't help but scream in fear. I was jumping up and down. I was scared of the dark. What if there was a beast there hungry for me. One of the policeman came and opened the door. Hallelujah atleast I see some light.

"If you keep making noise Miss, I swear I'm gonna take you to the worst cell ever! You'll die in fear!", he closed the door again and I kept quite cause I was very scared. I was practically shaking in fear. It was five to till I wet my pants.

I was waken up by a bang on the door. I didn't know how I fell asleep in this place. Lights came on. And a bowl of soup with two slices of bread were pushed to my direction. I was hungry but not hungry. I just wanted to get out of this place. I sat there watching that food. Didn't look appetizing at all.

After about 4 hours a policeman came and opened the cell and and gestured for me to come out. Holly molly I couldn't believe that. I went running to the door. It was as if he's gonna say I'm kidding. When I got out I saw Scott.

"Did you bail me out?", I asked him.

"Yes, I couldn't let my princess stay here", he hugged me. And we went out.
