Report
My mother had a rare disease. After months of dead ends, I found one person in the country who could treat her. She told me there was a price. She said she needed a husband. I agreed. For my mother, I agreed. For six years I was her ATM. I bought her the bags. I bought her the watches. It got worse. She used my money to keep a kept man. She brought him into our bed. The day my mother had her last surgery, she walked out of the operating room halfway through to go celebrate her lover's birthday. The moment they pronounced my mother dead, I decided there and then, she was paying for that with her life.

While My Mother Died Chapter 8
Threatened with their own lives, the four had been willing to do what I asked to Diana. Diana was a small woman. She was alone.Marco was a man. He would put up a fight.If they went through the door, some of them would be cut."Hey, let it go here.""This woman walked out on your mother. That's enough. We hadn't even done anything before tonight."The lead man tried to negotiate.I walked into the kitchen. I opened the gas valve. I lifted a lighter.I held my thumb over the flint."Shall I tell you again?"It takes a second to flick this. It takes half a second for the gas to ignite. Do you want to bet which is faster?"They stopped negotiating.They went at the bedroom door.Marco started shouting through the wood."Why are you listening to him? He's one man. There are four of you!"The men looked at me.I spoke slowly."It takes one second to press this."It takes half a second for the gas to explode."Do you want to gamble?"They did not dare.They broke the doo

I crossed the room slowly and picked it up.The hospital.Diana's face lit up. She thought she was being saved.She let her voice crack. "Pick it up. It's about your mother. They want me back."I let one corner of my mouth move. "All right."I tapped accept.The nurse's voice came through, urgent."Dr. Crane, I'm sorry. The patient–the patient is gone."Her husband is on his way home. Get out–"I cut the call before the nurse finished.I had not had my fun yet.Let her hear the news.The color drained from Diana's face. The fearless look she had before vanished in an instant."Dead? She… she is not."That's not possible. That's not possible."She muttered to herself.I lifted the phone and smashed it against the corner of the table.The other phones, set out together, went the same way."You hear that? Your protection just expired."I dragged Diana to the middle of the living room. I looked at the men in the corner."Come here."They shuffled over.I pointed at he

My gaze swept over the men trembling in the corner, and a cold smile curled on my lips.Marco bolted into the bedroom and slammed the door shut behind him. The other four men piled in after him–but the door locked from the inside, shutting them out. They started pounding on it."Open the door! Why are you locking us out?!"Marco did not answer. He was inside, barricading the door with furniture.The four other men cursed him.Diana was sliding down the wall, clutching her stomach."Think this through. Your mother just had surgery. We don't even know if it was successful.""If she relapses, I'm the only one who can save her."I grabbed a fistful of her hair and forced her to look at me.The flat of the knife struck her cheek."And?"She forced the rest out. "And anything you do to me, you'll go to prison. Your mother will be beyond saving.""Are you really going to watch your mother die?"The longer she talked, the steadier she became.Six years of marriage had taught her

The world stopped.Through the gap in the OR door, I saw my mother on the table–open, alone. The surgical team in their gowns–they were soaked through.A monitor was beeping rapidly."Where is Dr. Crane? Pressure is dropping! We need to close!""Get someone–anyone on rotation. Cover the closure!"The nurses ran past me. They knocked into me. I didn't move.Then…"I'm sorry. The patient is brain-dead. We could not bring her back."The relief surgeon stood in front of me, his head lowered.I came back into my body. I grabbed his collar."Where is Diana? She left in the middle of my mother's surgery to go to a birthday party?"He did not answer.A nurse showed me her phone–Diana's social media post. The background was my apartment. Marco, and four other men, were around her.I turned and ran out of the hospital.The image of my mother lying open on the table stayed in my mind.Why?Why had Diana done this?She had humiliated me–I endured it.She took my house–I endured t

I lifted my eyes. "You're insane. This is joint property."Half the apartment was hers.She did not blink. "You're so good at making money. A few more orders, make my babies happy."The exhaustion came up out of me.She had gone insane.Diana knew that every order I closed cost me a night of dr

Marco was at the door. He was on his way out.He had not left.I held my breath. I didn't speak.A voice came from inside the apartment behind him."Who's at the door? Hurry up and go buy condoms. I can't hold it anymore!"The room came into view.Four or five men I had never seen were sitting

Marco flopped back onto the sofa.Before I could swing again, Diana's voice cut in."Enough."Do you still want your mother treated or not?"Tomorrow is the last surgery."She caught my fist in her palm and stood between him and me.Her fingers were small. I could have broken her wrist with on
