Judas kiss

When it seemed all had been said. Della entered the room. Lyle seemed to be ready to go, it wasn't fun speaking to a mute person. More exhausting when having to wait for them to write down all they wanted to say.

"Here's $20 go buy something for yourself in the canteen then you can come and say bye to your mom. If you want to seat in the car, you can come fetch the keys.." Della instructed Lyle like she would to Leo. Marcela was fuming.

"I don't wanna come back. I will just pass by the canteen then go eat in the car.." Lyle said seeming unbuffered by his mothers present. Della the handed Lyle the car keys.

"You remember where we parked right?" She questioned, out of concern because this was hospital and it could get confusing.

"I do... Uhm bye mom." Lyle said to Marcela who sadly nodded.

"Aren't you going to hug her Lyle?" Della pushed.

"Uh I'd rather not.. you know how the line gets in the canteen.." He immediately sped off.

"WHO GAVE YOU THE RIGHT TO STEAL MY SON AWAY FROM ME!!" Marcela immediately shouted at Della, she then continued to throw the box of Belgian chocolate against the wall. So much anger was radiating from her.

Della wasn't surprised.

"Oh so you can talk?"

Marcela immediately realized what she had done and clasped her mouth with her right hand. She grabbed the notepad to write something but Della was sick and tired so she grabbed the notepad and pen throwing it anywhere it landed in the room. Marcela bit on her cheeks. She didn't plans on saying anything more but had gotten the best of her.

"You think you're better than me but you're just like me. You're a slut Della.." Marcela spat fuming she crossed her arms. "You're such a slut!"

"It's not like you taught me to be act any differently." Della spat back.

"You really went and got pregnant so he could marry you right? I know that little trick. We have all used to. It's the oldest trick in the book."

Della laughed hysterically.. the nerve of this woman.

First she starts talking when she claimed she couldn't talk..

"What is wrong with you Marcela?" Della continued to laugh. She genuinely wanted to know what was wrong with Marcela. She had to be suffering from a mental illness of some sort.

"I'm your mother and don't you ever disrespect me like that. If it wasn't me for you wouldn't have been born—"
