Life In The Asylum

The Life In The Asylum: Chapter 10

Roseanne's P.O.V

My heart sunk to the bowels of my stomach. My mouth gaped open and dropped to the floor, I felt like my legs were Jello. I struggled to stand, Ryder held me up steadily and I became light headed. "No... She can't be dead! She just can't be!" I yelled at the man who stood straight faced at me. Not even blinking and I narrowed my eyes, I was in the verge of tears and I began to only see red. The sorrow of losing my mother became hot rage. My body shook and I clenched my teeth and my fist in anger. Sending my arm into the man's cheek. It must of been a powerful punch because he went stumbling backwards, he rubbed his jaw and his eyes narrowed. I panted and glared harshly at him, speaking through clenched teeth, "Where is my mother?!" He looked at me with a stern expression. "She's dead.. Deceased... Gone.. Long and forgotten.." I was up to my head with this guy's crap. I sent my foot out and kicked him hard where the sun doesn't shine. He groaned and fell to his knees, groaning out in pain and letting out heavy pants of air. I ran past him and yelled loud throughout the house. "Mom?! Mom!! Mommy? Where are you?" I ran into one room and froze in my tracks. It was my mother'a room. I walked in and slowly shut the door, examining the wooden chest on the end of the wooden-framed bed. Sliding my finger alongside the beautiful workmanship in the headboard. Turning my gaze to the untouched and freshly ironed sheets and blankets that covered the worn out mattress. Staring at the picture on the dresser, it was of her, Talon and I. The picture was dated before I went to the asylum. I had a blank stare on my face in that picture but, my mother's blue eyes were full of joy, my father's green eyes were stern but, also sweet and concerning. My mind thought back to where I had beaten up my dad in the asylum, he had replaced the stern, soft, and concerned look with hatred, jealousy and fear. I looked upon the nightstand, my fingers trembled as I read a envelope that said, To: Roseanne, From: Kayla. I slowly opened it and unfolded the white sheet of parchment. Reading aloud, "Dear Roseanne, I'm sorry for leaving you like this.. The day you left me and your daddy for that asylum, I went into a state of depression, if your reading this than you probably know but, I killed myself.. I could not stand you out of my life. I love you so much and I will always be in your heart.. Love, Kayla Parks.." I looked at the paper. The last remains of my beautiful mother. I looked to her nightstand and saw her favorite locket, opening it and looking into it to see a picture of me and her in it. Not of her and Talon. Just me and her. Closing it and placing the gold chain around my neck, I gripped it softly and a chill went down my spine. My head shot back and the voice spoke but, it was a feminine voice. It seemed identical to my mother's soft and sweet voice, 'Roseanne. Ryder awaits for you.. He truly loves you.. No one else could steal his heart.. Spend your life with him.. Your turning 18 soon.. I wish you luck my dear Rose..' I looked and shook my head, running out of the house, Ryder embraced me tightly in a hug. I let out a whisper, "I love you Ryder.. Please don't ever leave me.." He chuckled softly and smiled, "I love you more.. And don't worry Princess... I won't leave you.. Not in a million years.." I felt tears come to my eyes and I restrained myself from crying. Ryder let go of me and knelt down on one knee, showing me his white smile and pulled out a black velvet box, "Roseanne Parks, would you do me the honor of making me the luckiest and happiest man in the world and be my wife?" Tears began to spill from my eyes. "Yes, Ryder.. I will marry you.." I hugged him tightly and our lips touched.
