103/104 37: A Request From HeLL.
Rex drove his police car onto the property of the Ameristar Apartment area and parked his vehicle in a parking zone. The 34 year old police officer got out of his car, closed the door and headed over to his apartment, which was room 102. Rex unlocked the door with his key and entered inside the apartment and closed the door behind him and locked it.
The lights then came on, revealing Helena HeLL standing up against the wall, with her hand on the switch. "Hello, Rex."
Rex flinched as he turned to see Helena standing up against the wall. "Mrs. HeLL?"
"That's my name. Don't wear it out." Said Helena. She wore a green long sleeve suit top with sharp, pointy shoulders, a green skirt that went down to the calf of her legs, green high heel shoes, long sharp green fingernails, and she wore pink lipstick.
"What are you doing here? Who let you in? How did you get in here?" Rex asked.
"I used my key." Said Helena before walking up to Rex.
"Why, to talk to you, of course." Said Helena.
"What do you want?" Rex asked.
"Well, good afternoon to you too, officer. Long time, no see." Said Helena.
"Why are you hear?" Rex asked.
"Why, to talk to you, of course." Said Helena.
"There's nothing to talk about." Said Rex.
"Sure there is." Said Helena.
"Oh, yeah, like what?" Rex asked.
"Like my daughter, Stacy, that's what." Said Helena.
"What about her?" Rex asked.
"You know exactly 'what about her." Said Helena.
"Look...i am having a very bad day. So why don't you just quit beating around the bush and tell me what you want." Said Rex.
"All of my days have been bad since my daughter went down for what your mother did." Said Helena.
"Well, what can i do for you?" Rex asked.
"Let me see Tommy." Said Helena.
"What?" Rex asked.
"Yes. I'm Tommy's grandmother, so i have a right to see him." Said Helena.
"Mrs. HeLL..."
"Please don't tell me that you're not gonna let me see my grandson. I wouldn't want you to tell me that." Said Helena.
"I did not say that." Said Rex.
"Then what are you saying?" Helena asked.
"I need time." Said Rex.
"Time?" Helena asked.
"Time for what?" Helena asked.
"I need time to talk to my son." Said Rex.
"My daughter has been in prison for four years. Your time's up." Said Helena.
"Look, i need to be able to explain this to him, okay?" Rex asked.
"Well, what's taking you so long?" Helena asked.
"I just need a little bit of time!" Rex said.
"Want me to talk to him?" Helena asked.
"NO!" Rex shouted.
"I'd be happy to. Are you sure?" Said Helena.
"No." Said Rex.
"I can go right over to Gigi's place..."
"Did you hear what i said? NO! Do not talk to my son!" Said Rex.
"Look at you. You know what it feels like to not have your child in your life. You know what it feels like to not know where or what your child's doing." Said Helena, refering to Jason's absence.
"Yes, i do. More than you know." Said Rex.
"There's a thing. There's a thing in a parent's heart...that makes them want to protect their children. It makes them want to make sure that they shield them from harm. Do you...understand...that thing?" Helena asked.
"Yes...i do." Said Rex.
"Ironic, isn't it? Two years ago i didn't have my daughter, Stacy, and now...you don't have your son, Jason. But you know what the good book says: An eye for an eye...and a tooth...for a tooth. Or in this case...a child for a child. Now then...give me your consent to see Tommy." Said Helena.
"Can't i just have a little more time?" Rex asked.
"Yes, but first give me your answer." Said Helena.
"Look, we don't even know if the courts will allow you to see Tommy." Said Rex.
"No, we don't, but when we do find out, i will go over to Gigi's place to pick him up and spend some quality time with him. Now give me your consent." Said Helena.
"That is not a good idea." Said Rex.
"GIVE IT!" Helena yelled.
"Okay, fine. You can see him." Said Rex.
"Thank you. Thank you so much for being generus towards me. Not that it means anything. You were barely generus towards my daughter when the two of you were together." Said Helena. The white haired woman then walked past Rex and unlocked the door and opened it and proceeded to leave.
"I don't understand why you're doing this. I mean, i can understand you being angry with me because you think i ruined Stacy's life, but why are you going after the ones that i love? Why don't you come after me? You got the guts for that?" Said Rex.
"Oh, poor, poor Rexy. You still think that this is all about you. You think you're still the star." Said Helena.
"This isn't a movie!" Said Rex.
"It will be one day." Said Helena.
"These are 'REAL' innocent people." Said Rex.
"Oh, shut up. Spare me the lecture. You and your family have done very well by all three of these incidents, haven't you? Well, how about the town you left behind where it all started? I've got plans for you. And when it's all said and done, you'll be begging me to put you out of your misery. You'll pay when i want you too, Rex. Not a moment before, but until then...you're going to suffer." Said Helena before exiting the apartment and closing the door shut.
Rex then placed his hands on his face and ran both of them through his brown hair in frustration, knowing that he would have to deal with Helena again. "(Sighs) Where is justice? Oh, my good, where's justice?"
