"what the fuck, you bitch!" orion's father seethed, clutching his nose in agony. his foul profanity doesn't faze me as i cross my arms and shoot him a smirk. "call me a bitch one more time and i'll make sure you walk out of here with a broken jaw too."
he simply glares at me, trying to nurse his nose. "who the fuck are you anyways."
"your worst nightmare." i say, cackling like a maniac. i was deliriously sleep deprived, and oddly hungry, which did nothing but fuel my craziness.
he stares at me, his jaw slacked open slightly, before shaking his head and glaring at me once more. "move out of the way, i want to see my son."
"and i want to hospitalize you, but i'm afraid we all can't get what we want in life, huh? tough luck."
he shakes his head, turning around to look at his wife. "we will talk about this later." then proceeds to shove his way out of the room.
i internally sigh in relief. i didn't actually know how to knock him out, and i didn't want to be in a hospital bed right next to orion.
turning back to the peacefully sleeping boy, i suddenly feel the need to have a good cry-something i hadn't wanted in a very long time. "can i stay here with him?" i ask his mother.
she immediately nods. "please phone me when he wakes...or don't, whatever works." she then hands me a slip of paper with her number on it and walks out the door, the thick bangles around her wrists chiming with each step, as if it's a reminder: i'm rich and important.
i decide to shoot a quick text my mother.
annalise to mother dearest:
hey mom, thanks for letting me take the car. orion's asleep, do you think i can stay here? it's winter break and i don't have anything to do tomorrow. please? :)
mother dearest to annalise:

annalise to mother dearest:

i settle into the chair next to the hospital bed and rest my head on the armrest, closing my eyes.
