Late
Poor bodies
"Lucy, I can explain…" he says wile I shake my head in anger and quickly walk out.
" Lucy! …Wait!" He says chancing after me
" Get away!" I scream running towards my father.
"Lucy!" He tells after me. I grab the end of my shirt and dry my eyes.
**********************************************************************
I run in and see my father sleeping. Thomas comes stomping in.
"Lucy, let's just talk about it"
"…you have no right, no right, to do that. And especially to someone's own mother!" I say to him sternly.
"Listen, I was not doing anything bad or disrespectful…" he says when he puts a sharp knife that he was cutting mum with on the table by my father " I was just getting some test samples to work on"
i feel a little bet better
"get your samples, then leave my mother to rest in peace"
he nods his head and and pulls the mask off his face.
"…I think I have enough for now…" he says with a frown walking out of the room and stoping
"I'm going to be in the lab if you need me"
i sit down in a near by chair and it wasn't long until my father woke up.
"…I thought you were with Thomas…" he says quietly when his tired eyes open and slowly glance at the knife that Thomas left.
"… I… I was, but then he want to the lab"
he dose not say a word and keeps looking at the knife for a wile.
"Go" he whispers "go with Thomas"
"but father…" he stops me there
"no! No buts. Go with Thomas"
" I want to stay here with you!"
"Go!" He says raising his voice
i stand there looking down at him. I have mixed emotions. Was he mad? Sad? Or just, depressed?
**********************************************************************
I walk into the lab and see Thomas sitting on a chair.
"Thomas?…" I whisper
he slowly turns the chair around and looks at me; he was waiting for me to say something else.
"I'm here"
he stays quiet.
" I'm sorry Lucy…I'm sorry"
i say nothing and try to hold back crying.
"I just really love Harry like a father" he say when he starts to cry "Lucy, I have nothing. Nothing. Harry has been there for me. He has paid for my lunches, clothes, everything! With out him I would be a dirty hobo on the street. I used a dead body to examine. To see what was different. How the germs start to die. How the germs do die. How long it takes. I can't do that to Harry yet. Please forgive me. …he is all I have!"
I pause. Then nod my head.
"You should go back to your father"
l…ok"
***********************************************************************
I do as Thomas says and walk into his room.
…
"Oh…oh my god! SOMEONE CIME HELP!"
