Chapter Twenty-Two

Marissa

“I can’t wait till you wake up and I can take you home. I got a new job,” I tell her while brushing her hair. It’s been five days since she was found, five days that she has been in the coma. It was my job as her mother to protect her, and I didn’t do that. I did the opposite of that. But I would make it up to her.

I held her while we both slept that first night. When her body would start shaking, I would talk to her till she calmed down. Tell her stories about when she was little. I would just talk so she knew I was here with her.

The day after was the worst, when the lights came on coupled with the sunlight coming into the room, and I could see her skin that was yellow almost like it was jaundiced. Her nails were broken and cracked with dirt under them.

Her arms were barely more than skin and bone. Purple bruises ran along her wrists along with scabs and scars. The hardest thing to see were the puncture wounds. The inside of her right arm was a huge scab. A nurse had told us that her vein must have collapsed, but they still kept injecting into it. Her hair was limp, oily, dirty.

The nurse came back that night to give her a sponge bath. Of course I didn’t let her. I bathed her myself. It was almost like I was trying to purge her system. Mick said he would wait outside while I bathed her, but if I needed him to just call for him.

I filled the basin with warm water and started at her feet. I know I should start at her hair, but her soles were black, yellow, and brown. The water had to be refilled after just one foot. Making my way up her legs, my breaking point was the dried blood on her inner thighs. The sight made me run to the bathroom and throw up the breakfast that Mick forced me to eat that morning.

Rinsing my mouth out with water, I looked at myself. “Be strong, be strong.” I chanted to myself.

The nurse that had been supervising me stood up from the chair. “If you want, Mrs. Sullivan, I can finish it.”

I shook my head. Grabbing the basin, I went back into the washroom and filled it with warmer water. Going back to the bed, I put my hand into the water, wringing the towel and then started washing her legs again. I picked up one leg and quickly washed away all the dry blood. I let warm water soak on her inner thighs before washing it off. The tears mixed with the water and blood. The left over blood and dried semen on her vagina was the breaking point. The sob ripped through me. Mick knocked at the door, opening it and looking down at the floor.

“Marissa.”

I looked down and covered her up so no one could see her anymore.
