“Mr. Sullivan, can you tell me why you are here today?” one of the panelists in front of me asked.

I didn’t look up to see whose voice it was; my brain couldn’t register the question, nor did I care. I only wanted my hands wrapped around Dr. Harkness’s throat again.

Just a few minutes ago, I felt her pulse quicken under my touch and it felt so fucking good in that moment to watch her struggle below me. Mascara streaks had run down her cheeks from her tear-filled eyes. She begged and begged, but my grip only tightened.

She did this. She took my Barbie away from me and she deserved to die.

“Please… please don’t kill me,” Dr. Harkness had begged.

“Shut up.”

“You… are… better… than this.”

“Shut up.”

“You don’t want to kill me,” Dr. Harkness had whimpered. I’d begun to see the whites of her eyes as they rolled back.

I’d leaned down, until my mouth was by her ear. “I really do. Nothing gets in the way of what is mine.”

Right when she was almost about to take her last breath, more aides had come in and pulled me off her. I fought back, kicking and shouting a variety of curses that would make anyone shudder, but there were too many of them. They’d dragged me away from the person who fucked me over, who was always fucking me over.

And now I was here, in front of the people who’d determine if I would ever see outside of Murdoch Home again.

“Please communicate with us, Mr. Sullivan. We would like to work with you in letting you go, but you need to cooperate with us.”

Fuck him. Fuck this place. Fuck—wait, what did he say?

I lifted my head and shifted my attention between the five people sitting in front of me at a long table. They all appeared professional, dressed in suits of monochromatic shades. The panelists stared at me blankly, not an ounce of fear etched on their faces. If anything, they looked impatient. They were waiting for me to say something that would move the meeting along.

“Are you ready to speak with us now?” the man in the middle asked. He wore a fitted navy suit and his sandy hair was pulled back, his sideburns full of grays. His piercing gray eyes held my hard gaze.

“Yes,” I spat.

“Can you discuss the events that happened today?”

I knew that he was talking about the situation that happened with Dr. Harkness, but without meaning to, my mind went to Barbie. I thought about the way we locked eyes and everything made sense. She was leaving, going somewhere I couldn’t follow, and it was all because of that stupid bitch, Harkness.

If I was ever going to leave this place, I needed to change the game a little. “I apologize for the events that happened today. I let my anger get the best of me, but it will not happen again. I came here to learn to control my temper and I will do better.”

The words that left my mouth didn’t sound like me.
