Layler's POV.

I honestly appreciate Alvaro coming all the way here just to come and check up on me.
Alvaro is a good friend indeed, half of the things he does for me I doubt I would do for him.

The passing of my son has really taken me on an emotional carousel, I am still adamant about putting Caleb to death and I won't spare the lives of anyone who stands in my way.
Alvaro probably thinks that his presence will change my mind…news flash bestie, my rage doesn't come with a reverse button, once my mind is made up nothing can change it.
I now understand how Bauti was feeling when he lost Andy, furthermore to find out that Andy wasn’t his biological son! I wanted to ask about his whereabouts but I decided against that, I was a bit disappointed when I saw that Alvaro came alone.

I turn around and I realize that Alvaro is fast asleep on his chair, I lift my hand and I wave a few times just to make sure that he is really asleep.
When I realize that he has completely passed out, I get out of bed, the pains are still there but after what Jessica told me, I am not on a mission to the exit but rather I am on a mission to b34.

I know Alvaro will be worried sick if he wakes up and notices that I slipped out so I better be quick.

I painfully rush to the door, then I slowly pull it open so that I do not make a noise and wake him up. I notice that the passage is empty and I mentally smile to myself, I am actually going to get away with this.
I close the door and I start to search for b34, I was in b29 so b34 shouldn’t-
"Madam Layler, where are you going?" Shit! I turn around and I find Emeka looking at me.

"Listen I need to see sister Quela before Alvaro wakes up"

"You are not running away?"

"No" Not now at least, but you do not have to know.

"Okay then I am coming with you"

"No Emeka!" I snap and he pulls a face causing me to feel a bit guilty.

"Sorry you can wait outside" And with that he follows me. We reach the room and I wait outside for a bit. I've been waiting for this moment for so long, I stand outside and I take a deep breath.

"CLEAR!" I hear as I open the door.
"Doctor we are losing her!"

"CLEAR!" The minute I hear those words I rush inside and I find the doctor and a couple of nurses surrounding my mother.

"Doctor" One of the nurses say as she shakes her head.

"Time of death 23:48"

"What!" I say as I walk further, the nurses cover the body with a white cloth.

"Mam are you family?" The doctor asks and I look at him for a minute. I think of just running out of this hospital, my mouth is slightly open and I can taste the salty tears.
I look at the doorway and I find Emeka there, I look around for a door, still no luck.

How is it that I finally get to meet my mother as a corpse? How is it that the same day that I lose my son is the same day that I lose my mother?

I spot a window wide enough for me to jump out of and without any hesitations, I pass through the window. I can hear the sound of glasses shattering, voices screaming my name, I feel some of the glass pieces pierce into different parts of my body.

I am not screaming, I am just waiting to land to my fate with nothing but tears in my eyes, ever since those two letters. I have went from fierce to nothing but a sissy that cries in every matter that involves emotions.

Emotions show weakness, I would rather die than not hold my fierce manner. This world is a cold world and the fierceness is my heater, now that it is slowly breaking down and tearing apart, I am doing emancipation.
