"Continue Chest Compressions! What's her BP!?" The doctor yells as he passes the defibrillator to a nurse. An intern starts pumping Mercedes chest again as Bosco watches on. It has been 2 days since the surgery and she had slipped into a coma. She opened her eyes once. Bosco could see those eyes. They were Vacant, empty, they didn't have the spark they once had. Then her heart stopped. He closed his eyes as the doctors worked to bring her back. Then there was a blip on the monitor. Bosco looked over as he saw her heart rate quicken to a normal pulse.
"If this happens again, we're gunna have to call her. Her heart can't keep taking this." This put the doctors at square one. They thought they had her, but with this being the 4th time she's coded, they held almost no hope. Bosco just sat next to his sister, it had been 4 days since they pulled her out and he hadn't slept or eaten. HE held her hand to his mouth and kissed it.
"Don't leave me Merc... I almost watched you come into this world.. I don't want to see you leave it." He moved his chair closer to her and laid his head on her chest, listening to the hiss of the respirator forcing air into her lungs, the sound of her heart beating, He wept on her chest as he looked up her. They looked so much alike, they even had the same attitude most of the time, just hers was less, obvious. Mercedes had a heart of gold, and everyone loved her. To Maurice, his sister's smile lit the room up. they could read each other's thoughts. He grew up defending her and coming to her rescue her entire life. She admired her mother, but Bosco was the one thing in this world she could depend on.
I am once again next to Bobby only at my mothers house. It is so 70's I cringe. I look around then at him. "What is going on? What was that pain I felt then you disappeared?"
"That was your body.. They tried to save you."
"Then why am I back?! I want.." The scene before me cuts me off. My father dragging me into the house and throwing me against a wall. I wince just seeing it.
"What are? Whoring yourself already? Your just like your mother you little slut!" He runs at Little Mercedes and picks her up by the throat and punches her in the stomach 4 times then drops her.
Maurice walks in to see him punching her and jumps on his father's back, slapping at him. "Leave her alone! We were just playing Basketball!" Anthony throws Maurice off of his back and into the wall, making him slump over.
"Shut up you little bastard!" He turns to Mikey and growls heading for him when he hears scuffling behind him. Turning he sees Mercedes crawling towards Maurice, trying to hold in coughing.
"Where do you think your going?!" He grabs her by the hair and swings her into the kitchen. the sound of glasses shattering and the loud thud make the house shake.
Mikey runs from the house and down the street, towards his mother's work. Anthony tries to pursue and fails, turning back to the house. Storming in he looks for the left. Finding Maurice hiding behind a chair makes him laugh. "You are one dumb ass! You'll never amount to anything. You're as useless as your slutty mother!" With that he grabs a bottle and starts drinking.
"Are you trying to kill me?!" She looked at Bobby who stood there. He looked towards her.
"You've gone through this your entire life. Why do you want to continue on?" I look at him like he's deranged.
"You aren't serious!? I want to be with my brother! I don't want Maurice this upset over me! I WANT BACK IN MY BODY! I WANT TO LIVE!" She lunged at Bobby, but he disappeared and that pain came back, but it wasn't sharp, it was just blunt and she felt like she was grabbed again.
