Swapped

Chapter 18

Joy

The banging was so loud it woke me up. I had passed out on the bathroom floor. There was a pool of plod around me and the excruciating cramps immediately came in droves. "help" I called out "help" I felt like passing out so I knew that I needed to get help now because if I didn't it was a strong possibility I would die here on the bathroom floor. It was too much blood way too much. "help me please help" I called. A wave of darkness hit me and I tried to fight it but I couldn't.

When I woke I was in the hospital surrounded by the staff and are those police officers. I wasn't going to tell them my husband did this. I wasn't going to cause him any more hurt and pain than I already had. When one of the officers saw I was awake he nudged the officer beside him. The doctor came to stand beside me. "Mrs. Wilson I see your awake. Is there anyone I can call for you?" He grabbed my hand and gripped it. "You're safe now." He said in a warm comforting voice. "Mrs. Wilson how do you feel" I just looked at him then said the first thing that popped in my head "how is the baby? Is it okay?" He looked at me and patted my hand with his free hand. "Mrs. Wilson you lost a lot of blood during your attack. Your son just wasn't strong enough to survive I'm sorry" I felt like he knocked the wind out of me. "Oh no oh no" I kept screaming the same thing over and over because it was the only thing that made since. My poor baby had not survived. "It.. it was a boy" I managed to ask. The doctor nodded and I lost it. I completely lost it "Jesus! Jesus! Jesus!" When you feel like all is lost and the world has completely turned its back on you all is left is God and I called on him over and over again "Jesus Jesus Jesus! I was given a sedative because I could not calm down. They kept asking if I wanted to call someone but who was I to call Summer not! My mom no I was too embarrassed. Humiliated and my husband was probably lawyered up already. The second time I woke they asked me if I wanted to see him. "Not yet please" I cried "I can't see him yet" The nurse nodded and mumbled something about the doctor would be in in a moment. Shortly after the doctor he was followed by the too same officers. This time one of the officers took my hand. "Mrs. Wilson I'm Officer Riley from the Mecklenburg County Police department. We need to ask you a few questions." He seemed nice enough and he had a very soft tone "This is my partner Officer Price. Can you tell us what happen to you today" he asked?

"I don't remember" I lied. They both looked at each other then back at me.

"Mrs. Wilson when was the last time you seen your husband" Officer Price asked?

"I don't know earlier today."

"DO you recall the time" Officer Riley asked

"Not really" I lied again.

"Do you know a couple by the name of Rodney and Summer Anderson" he asked. I squinted my eyes. Why were they asking me about them. I looked at them confused.

"Yes they are very good friends of ours" I said.

"Does Mr. Wilson have any reason to be angry with the Anderson's that you know of" officer Riley asked. I was concerned now I tried sitting up but the doctor directed me to lay back. That's when I noticed the sedative in his hand. "What is going on. I'm getting upset what is going on" I demanded "tell me now" I exclaimed!

"Mrs. Wilson I'm sorry to inform you of this but at approximately 7:30 today your husband opened fire the car that was occupied by Summer Anderson. Her wounds were fatal. He then shot himself at the scene." My ears were ringing and the ringing kept getting louder and louder. We reap what we sow, the wicked shall not inherit the........ shut up I can't think someone was screaming so loud I couldn't think oh wait that is me. I felt like I was watching myself flip out I felt insane. Oh my God one night of passion and the people that were innocent were dead. The devil had stolen all my joy. How was I supposed to move forward now how?
