Trigger Warning for the end SH
Olivia drove and drove. She had no idea where she was going. But her subconscious lead her to the hospital. She looked up at the hospital and slammed her fist on the steering wheel "shit!"
She knew she had to get out of the car and go see about Essence. She wanted and needed to see about her.
Olivia got out of the car and slowly walked into the hospital. She got into the elevator and went up to the floor Essence was on. She walked into her room and saw Essence was asleep. "Hey Olivia, can I talk to you for a minute?" The Doctor asked. "Yeah." They stepped out into the hallway. "Her foster parents came back and they told her they didn't sign up for this. It's going to take a week for her to find another placement. We had to sedate ger last night. She ripped her IV out and took off down the hall." Olivia nodded taking in all the information. "What will happen to her if she doesn't get placement by the time you release her?" She asked. "I don't know." The Doctor squeezed Olivia's shoulder and walked away. Olivia walked into Essences room and sat beside her. She held her hand and prayed that Essence would forgive her.
Olivia was getting ready to tell her but choked on her own words. She felt hot tears getting ready to trickle down her face. For a moment she just sat there and held her hand. The moment she told her she knew that her life would never be the same. Essence would be filled with so many question but Olivia's biggest fear would be the anger and hurt. She would feel so much guilt and scared Essence would blame her for all the bad that has happened in her life. "Essence honey, how are you feeling?"
Olivia got no response. The sedation was still very prominent in Essence system.
Olivia sat back in the chair next to the hospital bed hoping she would wake up soon. She didn't really care to go back to the precinct because all they would do is bombard her with questions she didn't care to answer.
She ended falling asleep without realizing it. Hours had passed and Essence had woken up to see Olivia asleep in the chair next to her. "What is with this lady" she thought "stalker much!"
"Hey!" Essence said. She smirked when Olivia bolted up and looked around.
Olivia smiled at her daughter. "Hey sweetie, how are you doing?" She asked. "Why the hell are you here? I thought I was never gonna see you again." Essence said.
Olivia didn't know what to say. But she realized it would never be the right time to tell the girl she was her Mother. She opened her mouth and spoke from her heart. "The other day you asked me how we knew each other."
"Yeah..." Essence said with attitude.
"I didn't really give you answer." Olivia said. She was starting to get really nervous. "Will you just spit it out? It's not like you're going to tell me you're my Mom or something!" Essence snapped. Olivia stiffened at the words. Essence caught on. "It can't be true! Is it?!" Olivia started to cry. "Say the words dammit!" "It's true. Im your Mom..." "GET THE HELL OUT! GET OUT!" Essence shouted. She threw the small pitcher of water that was on her bedside table.
Olivia didn't know what to do. Deep down she knew she was going to react like this. Tears started to fall as Olivia walked out of the room. She had no idea what was going to happen from here but she knew that Essence now knew the truth. She hoped and prayed deep down Essence wouldn't shit her out forever now and want nothing to do with. Olivia started to blame herself now more than ever. 'Had I just kept her, none of this would ever happened' she thought. Olivia got into her car and pulled out her cellphone and texted the captain that she needed a personal day and told him what happened.
"Liv take the day, we won't drown without you." Olivia was relieved she headed back to her apartment and dug into her closet when she got there. She found the sonograms of Essence and her hospital bracelet from the day she was born. She broke down not sure how to even begin to deal with any of this.
Olivia ended up going through all the pictures that were taken the day her precious daughter was born. She wanted so badly for Essence to forgive her but now she had no idea if that was even a possibility.
Olivia pulled herself together and decided she needed to take a shower. She turned the hot water on and let the bathroom steam up. She got in under the stream and broke down again. Her heart was breaking because of all of this. She didn't get out of the water until it turned cold. She checked her phone and saw 15 missed calls from the hospital. "Olivia, we can't fond Essence. She escaped when the nurses switched shifts."
Essence world had been completely flipped upside down. She wanted to scream, cry, and get angry anything. She wanted to get out of this hospital she couldn't take it anymore. She wanted to use her own coping mechanisms. It 24 hours not only she had been brutally raped but come to find out her own mother that gave her up was a sex crimes detective. "How could she do this to me? Why would she give me up? Why the hell would she let this happen to me and let my whole life be nothing but hell?"
Olivia arrived at the hospital in record time. "How could you lose my baby?!"
"Wait, she's your daughter?" The Doctor asked.
'Shit!' Olivia thought. "Yes, she is." She didn't need to explain herself to this woman. She needed to find her child. She started thinking. If Essence was anything like her, she would want to go outside where she could be alone. "The roof!" She said out loud. She took off for the staircase that lead to the roof.
When she got there she searched around for Essence. She found her sitting in a corner, cutting. "Essence! Put that down honey."
"Don't honey me! This is all your fault!" Essence snapped.
Olivia was hurt and taken back by her words. She didn't know what to say to Essence because deep down Olivia did feel like it was her fault. She wanted to be there for her little girl more than ever. She didn't know if that was even going to be a possibility at the rate things were going.
Olivia slowly stepped towards Essence as she was getting ready to jump off the ledge. "Honey please don't!"
Olivia began to panic Essence was on ledge ready to jump and she didn't know if she could stop her.
"Essence, I know your mad at me. And I know you have a lot of questions. And if you want to blame me, blame me. Because I blame myself." Olivia said. She had gone into cop mode.
"Will you just shut the hell up?! Isn't bad enough you just threw me away like a gift given to you at Christmas by your great aunt that you don't really know?! Why did you come back?! I wasn't good enough for you before!" Essence said. She was looking down at the street. She was thinking if she just let herself fall it would all be over.
