Helanie:
"Is that a threat?" I asked her, my body shaking with anger. The nerve of her. She was the reason all her sons were suffering, and now she was trying to scare me too?
"Oh come on, Helanie. It's not a threat. Although, if you want to think of it that way, go ahead," she said.
She was so ignorant, almost like she was deliberately trying to get under my skin.
"You should be happy I'm even here for you as a mother figure. Your own mother fucking ran away."
The minute she said that, I don't know what came over me. I put my hands on her and shoved her. She gasped, clearly shocked by what I'd done.
"How fucking dare you!" she screamed in my face. "Do you know I can fucking kill this baby with just a snap of my fingers?" she hissed, coming at me.
I was falling apart. I was pregnant, I'd already had two miscarriages, and now she was making everything worse. I wasn't okay.
"That will be enough!" Someone suddenly barged in, furious.
