Title: ALL FOR MONEY
EPISODE: 12
the other officer also pulled his gun and pointed it at Jeremy and they had also asked him to leave or they were going to use force to drive is out of the cemetery..
Jeremy: what is wrong with you people, you are just being given orders and you follow blindly. Can't you see that this is woman who has lost her entire family and she is just here to pay her respect.. aren't you human at all?..
officer: who the hell are you?
Jeremy: you don't want to know who I am. Let the lady through before things get nasty around here..
I got out of the car with the other gun that was in the car and shot the officer who was pointing a gun at Jeremy as he shot the other one. we were a bit hidden from the other people so I don't think anybody saw us take down the officers but they mist have heard gunshots but i didn't care. I took Jayden's favorite toy and Liam's piggy bank from my hand bag and decided to go back to the burial site with my gun in my hand. Jeremy realized what I was doing and he followed me hurriedly trying to stop me or to get the gun from me but not even he would get in my way....
Jeremy: wait! Linda wait, what are you doing?
he stood infront of me and held both of my arms. I stood there staring at him with tears running down my cheeks.
Jeremy: you don't want to go back there Linda, it's not safe for you.
Me: safe?
I pushed him a side and started walking again. he caught up with me.
Jeremy: I can't let you go back there Linda it's dangerous. You don't know what orders
me: i swear if you stand in my way again I will forget who you are.
he had no option but to come with me. He took the guns from the two guys and rushed behind me.
We got there when the last prayer was being said before the burials took place.
Jeremy: Watch out for Guns!
he shouted and people started running for their lives as Jeremy shot anyone who looked like security. they were around but not so many as I had expected. I found my way upfront where my mother in law was seated. Richard's sister's and husbands were there. they did not run as they were depending on the security.
Sue: what are you doing here?
Me: if you don't want to see another side of me you better sit down and shut up.
Sue: you think this is your house where you beat me last time?
Me: No, this is a grave yard and this time I might burry you alive.
everyone was silent, even the mother in law. I took Jayden's coffin and put it inside his tiny grave. I put his favorite toy on top of his coffin then looked at him for a while before I took the spade and burried him. I was chocking on anger and tears couldn't help but find their way down my cheeks. Everyone stood there staring at me. Jeremy was still in pain from the gun shot on his arm but he had to keep watch incase there ware any surprises.
I put Liam's piggy bank on top of his coffin and burried him too. this was the last I had seen of my two little babies. they were really gone. I sat there and cried my heart out. why did God have to give me two beautiful babies then take them away this soon? why couldn't he let me see them grow into fine young men,and enjoy being a mother like any other woman did?
I got up and walked to Richard's coffin. I hugged the coffin as I cried again, this was the most difficult moment of my life. Richard was not only my husband but he was my best friend. the man who loved me for who I was when everyone looked down and threw insults at me. He was my defender, stood up for me in all circumstances and by his side not only did I feel loved but protected. I loved him with every single cell alive in my body. I have missed him for the past few days he wasn't by my side.
He said he was always going to be there for me, he said he would never leave me. he said he loved me but where was he now when I needed him the most?
the pain in my heart was too much. I wanted it to stop. I thought I was strong enough to handle him not being here but I can't. I don't know how to live without him and my babies.
Jeremy came next to me and took me in his arm. He had really tried to be strong because given a chance, he would break down like I did only that he couldn't especially with the state I was in.
when Jeremy hugged me, my mother in law got up from where she was seated and started shouting as she walked towards me.
Mother: I said it. see how you lack respect doing your evil deeds right infront of us. don't you have shame?
I looked at my husband one more time, put his favorite tie on his coffin then I walked towards her. I badly wanted to slap the hell out of her but I still had some little respect left for her because of the love I had for her son.
the older daughter asked her to let me be but she just wouldn't stop with the insults.
Mother: you are a witch! you have sacrificed my son and his children for riches. you should have died instead!
Me: you can now burry your dead.
I walked away and left them to burry Richard since I couldn't do it on my own like I did with my babies. I didn't want to hear what she was left saying but the important bit was that I had burried my babies.
Jeremy followed me to our stollen car and we drove away. I couldn't drive as I was so wasted. I had no strength left in me and I felt as if my head would explode from the headache I was having.
we got home and Jeremy took care of his wound as I headed straight to the shower. my clothes had soil from the grave yard and I needed the shower after all the running around I did today.
after coming from the bathroom I got dressed and slept on my bed. I felt so empty that all I wanted to do was die. my mother in law's words kept ringing in my ears. maybe she was right. I should have died along with my babies. it's never going to be the same without my little angels running around. what was there to live for, my mother in law and her children hated me. the only man who loved me is gone. He is not coming back!
I took a razor and cut my wrist. I wanted to feel every bit of the pain they felt as the bullets went through their bodies.
I didn't want to live anymore, not without my babies, i wanted to die
Afew minutes later Jeremy knocked on my door. I remember hearing the knock from very far. I hadn't passed out completely but I had lost alot of blood. I was weak. I Could hear Jeremy call but I couldn't respond.
Am not sure about what happened next but the following day I woke up in a hospital bed. Jeremy was there, he was seated on a chair next to my bed with his head resting on my feet. I looked around but there was no one else in the room. I didn't want to wake Jeremy because I know he had barely slept. I lay back wondering why I was still alive........
