My Own Worst Enemy Chapter 25
Current Location: At an undisclosed location to prevent Ruby from possibly finding this book than finding meIt was three hours after my phone call with Ruby and I chose to leave the comfort and safety of Kyles home and rent a place out in the numerous wooded areas around us. Ruby begged and pleaded on the phone with me that she was innocent, and she was going to find the culprit who did this to her one way or another. As a precaution I rented this place and did not tell a single soul of where I was going. Not Kyle, or Lucas, and especially not Shane. If Ruby is anything like me, she will eventually fit the pieces together, and as you already know she does figure it out. But before she does there is much more to tell you dear reader. I assured Ruby, I believed her, and she begged me not to tell Shane. The problem with that idea was before we even got off the phone with one another Rubys arrest at her company was all over the local news channels. Ruby knew she was in deep shit, and she

Current Location: Central Union hospitals waiting roomFor about a tenth of a second, I was horrified that Shane would do this to my mother. It took another five seconds for it to hit me that it had to be Spencer, and not Shane who stabbed my mother multiple times. When my mother woke up that was all she said before she passed out once more. I went out into the waiting room, by that time the rest of my siblings had arrived, and I told them how bad our mother looked. I did not however tell them what she said to me. They did not need to think ill of Shane.I texted Kyle to put together a list of Spencer’s victims for me. I wanted to know how many there were and how the ones who died, died. I also sent a group text to my aunt Pamela, uncle James, and Ruby to let them know what happened to my mother. All three of them texted back and said they were on their way to the hospital. I was hopeful that I could get Ruby by herself to see if she figured anything out. Also, I wanted to find out if

Current Location: Springfield Police station Seeing Spencer walk past the waiting room shook me to my core. I told the doctor I give him permission to call me and tell me over the phone what was going on with my mother, and to do everything in his power to save her. Then I called Lucas to take me to the Springfield Police station to get them on Spencer. Right than all my Ruby plans were on hold until Spencer was put behind bars. I was currently sitting in an interrogation room waiting for an officer to come in and take my statement. I had already been sitting there for over forty-five minutes before an officer came in. "I am so sorry to have kept you waiting it has been a very busy day around here. I am Officer Smith what can I do for you today?" The officer asked me sympathetically. "I am here to report a crime against my mother. Also, I want to help you catch a serial killer who is wanted in upstate New York. Both things are related." Shocked the officer said "Okay miss please wait

Current Location: Central Union hospital my mother’s roomAfter the police station I came back to the hospital. I had two hours before I was supposed to meet Shane. I was going to wait until than to tell him about Eric. At that moment I was waiting on the doctor to awake my mother from her medically induced coma. I had to tell her about Spencer before my family saw her and pointed the finger at the wrong man. Eric was currently in surgery at this very hospital and his possibility for survival was slim to none.Dr. Marsh came in and grabbed my mother’s medical chart. Then he checked her vitals before turning to me to speak. "Okay I am going to wake her up now. She will probably try yanking the breathing tube out again. I need you to hold down her arms when that happens so I can remove it safely understand?"I went ahead and stood at my mother’s bedside waiting for her to move. It took an agonizing thirteen minutes before she opened her eyes and tried to grab the tube. As soon as Dr. Mar

Current Location: My cabin in the woodsThe next eveningI was sitting in peace and quiet aside from the crickets and owls. My nerves were completely fried right now. I spent over three hours with Shane as he recounted the events of that evening. "Babe it was horrible. I was on Palm Blvd. at the crossroads of Tyler Ave. As you know it is a four way stop and I flashed my lights to let the other car know I was going to let them go first, but they just sat there unmoving. So, I went ahead and went first. Halfway through the intersection I looked over at the car that was still sitting motionless, and I locked eyes with Ruby. Not wanted to deal with her I quickly looked away. Then before I knew it she had slammed her foot on the gas pedal and collided with my side of the car. That evil bitch did not even stop she just sped on out of site!" I was so pissed, and I had murderous thoughts running through my mind. Shane had to talk me out of hunting Ruby down and hurting her. I told Shane all a

Current Location: In my car with Lucas and Kyle in route to Pearls house"Pearl still is not answering!" I said to Lucas and Kyle after hanging up for the twentieth time. I kept telling myself it is quarter after midnight, and she is probably sleeping, but it did not put my mind at ease. "Do not worry Ma'am we will be there in less than five minutes!" Lucas said as he pushed his foot down on the gas pedal even more. I was in complete panic mode. Both Kyle and Lucas continued to try and calm me down. As soon as we started pulling up to Pearls house, I opened the car door and jumped out, before the car even came to a complete stop. Before I knew it, I was running up Pearls front steps and banging repeatedly on the front door. Kyle and Lucas were not far behind me. Just as the two of them reached me the living room and hall light came on and a young girl of Maybe sixteen or seventeen opened the door with a huge yawn.I was way too scared for Pearl and the children’s safety to be polite. "
My Own Worst Enemy Chapter 31
Current Location: Outside of 416 Jefferson Street where my house use to sit, but now there was nothing but ashesI was in complete and utter shock at the scene that laid before me. The place I have called my home for over three years now was completely gone. Of all the things I could have had running through my head at that moment, the most prominent one was how thankful I was that I gave away my cat last month to a new home. I did not have the time or energy to give it the care and love that it deserved. When Spencer told me on the phone that my house was on fire, I immediately suspected him. I knew he knew if he told me my house was burning down, I would rush to the scene. I actually assumed he would be here waiting to ambush me, but after a thorough search of the ten blocks surrounding my house’s location Lucas, Kyle, and the men Kyle employed most specifically Mac and Tony, they found no trace of Spencer. This was totally bizarre to say the least."I promise you Emma I did not do t
My Own Worst Enemy Chapter 32
Current Location: Joe's BarAfter leaving Dede’s house, I went and saw my mother. My sister Amy and my brother Aaron were already with her. She was starting to look better already. My mother was also as high as a kite from all her pain medicine. Needless to say, I did not stay long. I swung by to bring Shane and Pearl some sandwiches that I picked up for them from the local deli, and to get Pearls house key so I could pick some more clothes up for the kids. I stayed with them while they ate than headed to Ruby’s house. She was not there, so I figured I would just deal with her later. Then I went to the nearest department store. I needed to buy a lot of groceries since I had way more mouths to feed than usual.I also wound-up spending over three thousand dollars on new toys for the kids. I know, I know it was excessive, but I felt bad that they were stuck in isolation, and maybe part of me thought the kids would like me and warm up to me more. Plus, I never get to buy toys, and some of
