Chapter 2
In the Matthews manor things were actually a bit quieter. Piper was in the kitchen just cooking. It was Mid-day, her kids were at school, and she took the day off. So there was no real reason to cook, but cooking is like a de- stress thing for her. That day she got a call from her ex husband, Jack. He just got out of jail, and he wants to get back with her. He got put in jail under the charges of abuse. He was an alcoholic; he abused Piper and her kids. Piper was blinded by love though, and mainly ignored the abusing. Every time he would beat her or her kids, she would kick him out...but the next day he would come back and plead for her forgiveness and promise to never do it again. He reassured her that he loved her. Piper was only thinking of herself, and not about her kids due to her own insecurities about being alone, her kids got hurt. Paige kept telling her to leave him, but she kept refusing. She finally came to her senses when she found Jack about to rape her 4-year-old Marquita. She called the cops and they took him and charged him, he got 5 years due to lack of evidence.
Now he is back, and she is as scared as a hell, she could not go back to him. Ever since he went to jail, there lives have had some normality, and Piper does not want to go back to the life she had with him. She knew that if he came, she would fall right into his arms and go back to the living hell she had vaguely escaped from. She need support...she needed some help to get her though this. She knew that if Jack wanted something, he would get it.no if, ands, or buts about it. She needed to talk to Paige; she has stayed with Piper through thick and thin. Whenever Piper got beat up by Jack, Paige would be there to give her a shoulder to lean on, help her clean up her wounds, and the same with her kids. Paige was her rock, and she was hers. She decided she needed to talk to Paige...now. She stopped her cooking and grabbed her stuff and headed to Paige's work, but what she would encounter there she would not ever be ready for.
Piper was driving to Paige's work in her Jeep. She barely focused on her driving; she was too worried about Jack. 'I can't believe Jack is back' Piper thought to herself.' I mean I knew he would be out sooner or later, but I did not know he would try and get back with me. I don't even know his whereabouts.' "Hell he could be watching me right now" Piper thought out loud. She spoke too soon.
"How are you doing baby" came a husky voice in the back of the car. Piper jumped out of her skin "Ahhhhhhhhhh" She screamed. The car swerved off of the road, and she hit a telephone pole. Her head slammed against the steering wheel, knocking her unconscious. Jack smiled evilly and blinked out. Sirens then could be heard in the back round coming towards Piper's car. They got her out of the car, into the ambulance, and onto the Hospital.
"Piper?...Piper sweetie?" came a faint voice. Piper blinked her eyes open and saw the brown eyes of her sister staring back at her, she smiled.
"Hi" She answered hoarsely. "Shhh don't talk, they just took the breathing tube out your mouth" Piper nodded.
"Hi auntie Piper!" Tanya yelled while jumping on the hospital bed.
"Tanya!" Paige scolded. "Off the bed right now!" Tanya got off the bed and walked to the other side of the bed.
"Are you ok Auntie Piper?" Tanya asked. Piper just nodded knowing she could not talk.
"Why aren't you talking Auntie?"
"Because she can't" Paige answered.
"Why?
"She had a tube down her throat"
"Why?" Paige sighed; she did not want Tanya to go into her game of 'Why'. "Lets go, we have to pick up Tamara" Tanya looked at her aunt sadly "Hope you feel better" Piper mouthed a thank you.
"I will see you in a little while Pipe! Now you rest up, and don't try and move around, the doctor said you have a mild concussion...oh and don't try and go to sleep" Piper nodded. "Love ya Piper" Paige kissed her forehead and waved good-bye as she left the room.
As soon as she left, a police officer came in.
"Hello Ms. Halliwell" Jill, the officer greeted.
"Hi" Piper said softly.
"We came here to find out who did this to you. There was no evidence that the car did not have any problems with it, nor do you have any health problems. So the only other option we can see is that someone did this too you. Is there anyone out there who might want to hurt you? Or do you have any enemies?"
"Jack" Piper whispered. "Pardon?"
"My ex-husband, Jack Johnson" Piper said more clearly.
"Why would he want to kill you?"
"I got him in Jail. He abused my kids and me for years, finally when he was about to rape my little girl, I took charge, and I filed charges against him and got him 5 years. He would have gotten more but there was lack of evidence."
"Ok" the officer nodded." That's all the questions I have for you today" Piper nodded. The officer walked out the door, and Piper decided to lie down.
