landed on Jessie’s fingers. He promptly punched her in the eye, causing her to fall off the bed and land on the floor.
    Jessie thought this was funny and burst into laughter. His reaction seemed to have ended a tense situation for Sammie. Normally, when she landed on the floor, Jessie would either stick his dick in her mouth or kick her. She was not in the mood to bear either that night. Now, instead of wanting him to stay with her, she could not wait for him to leave.
    He paused at the door and threw his final dagger for the night. “And, if I didn’t know those crumb snatchers were yours, your mother made sure that I knew before I married your sorry ass! She didn’t want you to come back to her when I kicked your fat ass out! She said you fucked up your life and she would be damned if she let you fuck up theirs, too.” He shut the door before Sammie could react to his remarks. Not that she would have done anything. It was Jessie’s way of saying, “Take that, bitch” and Sammie understood that all too well.
    Sammie crawled over to the bed and pulled herself up. She was sobbing so hard she could barely lift herself up. She tried to think back to the times when she was happy with Jessie, but those memories refused to surface. She finally realized that he was only nice to her before they got married. She also acknowledged that after she said, “I do,” he started treating her like shit.
    “Lord, it’s me again. Please don’t place me on ignore. I am drowning here and am in need of some help. God, I know I have made some mistakes but I don’t think I deserve all this!” she said, pounding on the mattress and adding more streaks of blood to the tousled bed. “Please God, help me! Tell me what to do ’cause I’m lost.”
    She collapsed on the bed in a fit of tears, further soaking the ruined sheets. God did not answer her that night. She’d never felt so completely alone in her life.
    It was the ultimate betrayal. She now knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that her mother truly despised her. Why else would she have told Jessie the truth about a lie she conjured up. The only problem was that she didn’t know why. Sammie wanted to go claim her children since she was beyond legal age, but she knew that Jessie would never agree to that. Feeling hopeless, she drifted off to sleep.
    Sammie awoke to the ringing of the phone. She groped for it without opening her eyes. Since she did not hear Jessie come back home, she assumed he was still out and grabbed the phone.
    “Hello,” she mumbled into the handset and immediately thrust the phone away from her ear. Her mother Althea’s scaly voice was screeching on the other end.
    She belched. “Sammie needs to come home.”
    “For what?” Jessie cut in, ignoring the fact that Sammie was also on the line.
    Sammie sucked in her breath. Damn, he’s back, she thought, shaking in fear. She wanted to tell her momma that she needed to come home, too, but was scared of what Jessie would do. She wanted to talk to her daddy who she knew would protect her.
    “Her father died. She has to be here for the reading of the will next week,” Althea declared.
    “When did Daddy die?” Sammie uttered, shocking both Jessie and Althea since they both assumed she had hung up.
    Sammie would not dare answer the phone if Jessie was home, and he was pissed that she did so now.
    “That old buzzard has been dead about six months. Get your lazy ass down here so we can finalize this shit,” Althea exclaimed, speaking directly to Sammie.
    However, Sammie had dropped the phone. Her father, the only person that ever loved her, was dead and she hadn’t even known it. Hot tears flowed freely down her cheeks. She didn’t even know that Althea had their phone number and now, after all this time, she was calling to tell her that her daddy was dead. Sammie cursed both Jessie and Althea under her breath. She even cursed her dad for leaving her. Her heart and head felt like they were about to
