Thomas perspective

I ran, my body ached, but I didn't care, I still ran. I wanted to stop running to breathe but something just kept telling me to run so I did. I had to run for the safety of my child.

There was something in me that told me exactly where to run to, and I eventually found myself in front of Eliza's apartment where he was at. I hear faint cries from inside the apartment, knowing they were Philip's. Rage clouded my vision and I leapt onto the fire escape.

I climbed up the fire escape and through the window, and heard Philip's cries getting even louder and louder each step I took. He sounded scared like he was crying for help, and it pierced right through my heart.

"Welcome Thomas!" I hear a familiar voice say in a fake cheery tone I know all too well.

"We've been expecting you Tommy!" another familiar voice says

My eyes dart around the room as I try to find my son.

"What do you want from me you psychotic fucks?!" I yell with anger and rage in my voice.

"I want my money— I mean wife back!" Hamilton says.

"I'm not gonna give her to an abusive, insane husband like you! She doesn't even want you!"

"Fine then, have it your way!" he shouted "It's going to be so easy to hide a baby's body," I heard Alexander mumble under his breath.

"No.." I whispered.

"Yes!" he laughed coldly.

The cries got louder, and I felt somewhat relieved knowing Philip was still alive.

What was Hamilton's deal anyway? Why was he so abusive towards Eliza? Why did he act so cruel and insane and psychotic? What had any of us done to him before? Philip is just a child, why can't Alexander just leave him alone? Sure, he may have been cheated on, but he was a cheater himself! He had no one to blame. No one but himself. That man whore needs some therapy or something.

"Why are you like this!? Why do you act this way!?" I asked him with a blank stare.

He went silent...
