Bad Mother

"Lexx-Lexx." Zack whispered in my ear. I shot out of bed.
"Where am I?" I asked, looking around.
"In the hospital. We got in a car wreck." Zack explained, "Lizzy came get Maria and Micheal. Poor Maria had a broken arm and lots of bruises. You should be fine though, and Micheal is fine too. Not a scratch on him!"
"What? Why would you let Lizzy take them?! She beat Maria! I was there! I stopped her! She caused the wreck, I know it!" I said, raising my voice a little.
"What? Lex, you're crazy. Lizzy wouldn't beat Maria. She's a great mother."
"No, Zack you saw the marks on Maria! Why are you acting like you didn't see them for yourself?!"
"Lex, I..."
"Save it, if you want to think that I'm crazy then fine. I know what I saw." I told him, wiping my tears away. "I'm gonna get custody of both of them anyway. You can help me if you want, or you can pretend like you don't know and end up going to a one year old's funeral!"
