Sanity: The Saw Chronicles [C]

Chapter 31 | Broken Glass

It took Kuza about an hour to get through that woman. He finished fucking her in the first five minutes but it does take awhile to devour a human whole like that. She may have had a bit of adrenaline in her system but she also had a shit ton of sedatives. I expect him to absorb some of it from her blood. It's hard to see him that way, on so many drugs, but it's the better of two evils. I don't want my poor baby to continue to scream like he has been.

He was sat with his back to the wall, covered in blood. I stepped over the doctor's mangled corpse to get to Kuza. He looked up at me like a sad little puppy. Despite his mind not fully being with him right now, he knew it was time for me to leave. I knelt down to be at his level and kissed the side of his head.

"I have to put this back on you now, Baby. If I don't, they won't let me come back." I softly told him.

Kuza looked over at me. More specifically, he looked at the straight jacket in my arms. "Okay." He muttered.

The combination of medication he'd gotten from her and how much energy he wasted eating her made him so tired. He stood up and was surprisingly very cooperative in letting me put it back on him. The others would never be able to calm him down like this. I'm the only person he'll listen to. I think that's part of the reason Ricky was okay letting me have visitation rights. Kuza would probably give himself a heart attack if he didn't have someone to calm him down.

"Will you take your medication for the doctors, now?" I asked as I walked around to the front of him.

He turned his head away, "I don't wanna."

"It'll help you calm down and maybe get some sleep. Please, Baby, for me. I'll feel so much better if I knew you got some sleep." I replied.

"Fine." He grumbled, "I'll do it. For you."

I wiped the blood away from his lips with my thumb. Then I gently kissed him, "Thank you. I have to go now but I promise I'll come back as soon as I can. I love you."

"I love you, too. Please come back faster this time. Last time was too long." He said.

"I'll try my best. I'm going to try to get Ricky to get you out of here sooner. I don't know if he can but I'm sure as Hell going to make him try."

I gave him one last kiss before I left. He started to cry when I pulled away. It wasn't a dramatic sob but there were tears streaming down his cheeks. This is so cruel what they're doing to him. Ricky gets that promotion in two weeks. Maybe then he'll be able to pull Mike out of here. It might not be as quickly as I want but it's better than nothing. I'm hoping there's something I can find on the security footage to prove he doesn't belong in there. I don't know what but I'm desperate.

It was my turn to cook dinner. Normally someone helps me but tonight I wanted to do it myself. I made a nice stew that'll be nice and comforting for winter months like this. It needed to cook slowly but still be watched. So, I sat on the counter across from the stove and read The Lady in the Lake. The storyline was actually better than you'd think for a mystery novel written in the forties.

Ryan had marked letters in this one too but they weren't making sense like the last one. I took it slow because I didn't want anyone to catch me skimming through it. If they see me looking for something in the pages, they might get suspicious. I've managed to collect the letters I,B,M, A. Around page eleven, I found an B underlined. What the fuck were you trying to tell me, Ryan?

Reese wondered into the kitchen, snacking on a handful of popcorn. "What're you making?" She asked, getting on her tip toes to try to see in the pot. Being shorter than Ricky, it's amazing how she makes such a good agent.
