Tame Me My Brother -in-Law Chapter 18
Every step that I made as I walked along the corridor of the hospital felt
heavy. My entire body was trembling with misery, remorse, and rage as I
realized what happened.
I had just left Andersonâs hospital and was on my way to the mortuary, where
my motherâs body was being held. The words of Dr. Henry continued to
reverberate in my ear. âShe killed herself. Her wrist was injured when the
nurse discovered her in the washroom of the medical facility. She suffered a
significant amount of blood loss, and unfortunately, she did not surviveâ¦â
What could possibly have prompted mom to act in such a manner? Why on
earth didnât she consider me before she did that? Doesnât she love me? She
remarked that we are each otherâs only hope, yet I donât understand why she
abandoned me. Why?
I came to a stop in front of the mortuary and peered through the glass on the

door. And there I saw a nurse standing beside the hospital bed, covering a
lifeless body with a white cloth.

âMomâ¦â My throat hurt so much and my eyes were filling up with more tears.
I had the unsettling sensation that someone had just ripped my heart out of
my chest, stomped on it, and pulverized it into nothingness.
Iâm starting to doubt myself again whether I have enough strength to see her.
To let go of her.
Tears escaped my eyes and rolled down my cheeks. It hurts so much. It hurts
me to the core that she left me. I wish I had her healed to spend more time
with me. I wish I didnât leave her this morning.
âIâm sorry for your loss, Miss Laurenâ¦â The doctor held my shoulder gently in
an attempt to comfort me.
But all I could feel was pain. The pain was so great that I wondered how I was
still breathing with it.

I refused to believe that sheâs no longer in this world, that she has left me. Itâs
all my fault.
The doctor only stared at me with the same devastated look, and that made
my heart burn.
âYouâre lyingâ¦â I hissed âYouâre lying to me!â I screamed, my loud voice
echoing in the hallway. âLet me see her! Let me see my mom!â I sobbed,
barging into the room.
No one had the courage to stop me, and as I watched the nurse cover her
face with the white cloth, my heart froze as I stood there.
âNo!â I shouted and charged at her in an angry manner.
The nurse yelped as I yanked the cloth off my momâs face, and I froze in an
instant, staring at my dead mother.
âMomâ¦â Her skin was pasty, and sheâs no longer breathing.

My trembling fingers brushed across her cheek as I collapsed onto her, crying
my eyes out. I wonât be able to see her face anymore for the rest of my life. I
wonât be able to hold her hand anymore, I wonât be able to hug her anymore.
Godâ¦
âMomâ¦â I choked, tears streaming down my face. âPlease, you canât do this to
heard in this room is the sound of me sobbing. âMom!â I screamed and
buried my face in her shoulder, hugging her body tightly in my arms.
I donât want to let her go.
There was never a time when weâre apart. Even when dad and Brylee left,
even when everyone didnât want us, we stayed together.
She canât be gone. How am I supposed to live with this pain? Why didnât she
call me to come back and tell me whatâs going through her mind?
I let my tears dampen her shoulder, already feeling that my soul is leaving
my body.

âWeâre going home to the Island momâ¦â I rasped. âYou can go home now,

Bu she didnât respond. Itâs only me talking to myself.
I had no idea how long I have been sobbing while holding her, but I did know
for certain that my soul was dead today.
Today, I lost everyone in my life. My mom, my dad, and my sister. They
abandoned me, breaking my heart to the point where it no longer functioned
properly.
âCelineâ¦â a womanâs voice called me and when I looked up I saw Martha
crying. âWe were happy watching the television earlier. She was all smiled.
She was happy. But when⦠the news came out, you⦠and your fatherâ¦â
Oh, god!
âShe saw your father slap youâ¦â Martha continued. I couldnât believe that it

was truly all my fault, so I kept shaking my head over and over again.
And right now. I just want to cry. Cry, cry and cry until my tear ducts were
empty. And I changed my mind of going home to the island. I will not leave
this city until those responsible for what happened to my mother have paid
for what they did!
I carried a piece of paper and the phone that belonged to my mother as I
walked down the corridor. Martha stated that she discovered the letter
underneath the phone which was placed on top of the table next to momâs
bed.

My hands were shaking violently as I opened my momâs phone. and then my
eyes were met with the image that was displayed on the front screen, finding
it so hard that to prevent the tears that were escaping my eyes. It was a
picture of the two of us taken on the island, and we were standing by the
beach with the beautiful water behind us. Mom was all smiled when I took
the photo. She looked so happy even though she was already sick.

âMomâ¦â I grazed my fingertips over the screen, as if I could really touch her
face. I miss her already.

After wiping my eyes out, a natural inclination prompted me to check the
messages on my motherâs phone, where I discovered an unknown senderâs
message. However, as soon as I read the first line, I already had a good idea
of who had sent the message to her.
âYour daughter is nothing but a whore! Have you witnessed what she just
did? She had sexual relations with a young model and then tried to pin the
blame on me!â
I clenched my fist as I opened the next message, and no matter how much I
tried to stop my hands from trembling, I couldnât stop them. âDo you have
any idea where Celine got the money to pay for your medical treatment?
She sold her body to my boyfriend!â
Fresh angry tears started to stream down my face as I read the all the
messages coming from Brylee. âThis will be the first and the last time Iâm
telling you this. I will never acknowledge you as my mother for the rest of my

life! You know why? I donât want people to know that I have such an ugly and
useless mother like you! I only want one mother and that would be Sasha, not
you!â
The messages had been sent this morning at nine oâclock, Consequently,
while the reporters were grilling me with questions, Brylee was
simultaneously sending inappropriate messages to my mom,
As I tightened my grip on the phone, my lips began to quiver, and the rest of
my body began to shake violently in anger, making the phone almost
destroyed in my hand.
I will never ever forgive you for what you did to my mother!
I was furiously wiping away the tears when I spotted the piece of paper that
Martha had given to me along with the phone. And as I opened it, the
yearning I felt for her was getting stronger and I couldnât help but sob while.

âCeline my dear⦠Iâm sorry. Iâm sorry that I had to leave you so quickly. I donât

always felt sorry for Brylee because I wasnât able to show how much I loved
her. However, I was even more reluctant to see you hurtingâ¦â
I looked up, blinking my eyes to stop the tears from falling but they just
wouldnât. I let out a shaky sigh as I continued to read her letter for me. âYou
were brought up by me since you were a child. I couldnât stand the thought of
you going through even the slightest amount of anguish. But you accepted
the responsibility for your sister in order to save meâ¦â
âI donât understand how Julio can be so heartless as to use me to threaten
you over and over again; Iâm sorry if I canât continue with my treatment
anymore. I donât want to put you through that misery. I donât want others to
slander you, drag you down, and let them hurt you over and over again. Iâm
leaving.â
âI want you to know that the reason Iâve done this is because I love you. I love
you so much, my dear daughter. Goodbyeâ¦â

And I burst into tears, the piece of paper crumpled in my hand as I cursed
repeatedly under my breath, my anger brewed like a storm at sea. I wanted
to scream but I couldnât. I sobbed as I collapsed to the ground on my knees. I
swear! I will let the people responsible for my momâs death pay and suffer!
And I will never stop until I didnât get the justice that my mom deserved!
