Standing at the hospital again for longer than ten hours, is exhausting. My body walks around slouched as my feet drag against the cold tile. My mother, is dead.
Nonexistent.
Dead.
I can't help but think about the night that I wished she was dead. In all reality, she was the one that was always there for me. At night, when all I could do was cry about my dad or Matt, she was there. When I came home from school hungry, she had food made. I didn't think about it then, but I can't imagine a life without her. And now, I'm forced to.

8:05 A.M.
The doctor calls me into a claustrophobic room to give me a small update about Matt. When I walk in, I feel strained. Three cops, the doctor, and a business women in slacks stand in a corner.
Out of the corner of my eye, I see a small camera. It stares at me as if to watch my every move.
"Sit down Jessica, please," a mans voice states as he pulls out a chair.
As I sit down, I receive stares from each person in the room. I keep my head down and hope this is a dream.
"Jessica, we will be taking you to the county jail later on this afternoon. "
"What why?!" I nearly scream.
"We know you killed your mother," the man cop throws at me.
