Earlier That Day...
Madison~~
I look down at my mother as she stares at the television against the wall.
I don't want to yell at her or make her feel bad for what happened, but I need answers. Specifically from her.
I lean back as I cross my arms. "You scared me, mom."
She doesn't look my way. "Where's your necklace?"
"What you mean?" I frown looking down to feel it dangling, but to my surprise the gold necklace she gave me is gone. "It's at my apartment, I just forgot to put it back on."
I lost my key, and now my necklace too. Just great!
Maybe Nathan has it, or-
"I didn't take them because they make me feel worse, the weight loss, the pale skin. I can't with those medications anymore." My mom looks at me dearly. "I'm sorry, Maddie. I didn't mean to scare you. Maybe it's time, maybe he's waiting for me."
