The Neighbor
Chapter 22: Sane
Ethan's taking a shower, washing all the blood off. He places his head on the wall and let's the water run down his head. He watches the blood go down the drain. He thinks about his daughter then the accident and starts to cry. A couple of minutes later he gets out and looks in the mirror. He grabs a bottle of pills and puts some on his hands. He stares at them
Psychiatrist: How do you feel when you take the pills?
Ethan: Relaxed, calm
Psychiatrist: And how do you feel when you don't take them?
Ethan: I get angry easily and psychically hurt myself
Ethan: I'm sane. I don't need these damn pills
He empties the bottle still thinking about his daughter. He gets angry and punches the mirror, breaking it. His hand starts bleeding. He gets so mad that he starts yelling
Kids Room...
Everyone wakes up
Sarah: What the fuck?
Angel: Still want his baby Ms. Childs?
Ms. Childs: He's just a man in pain that's all
Angel looks at her
Angel: The hell he is!
They hear his door open, his footsteps rush to their door
Sarah *whispering* Oh shit
Angel quickly faces the wall lying down
The door slams open. He starts breathing heavily as he looks at all of them then slams the door shut. They hear him run back into his room and slam the door
Brian *whispering* I'm scared to fall asleep
Sarah *whispering* Me to
Ethan's Room...
He goes to the closet and takes out a box. He sits on the edge of his bed and opens it. It's pictures of him and his daughter. He smiles as tears slide down his face
Ethan: My baby. My little angel... My little angel... MY... little... angel. MY... baby
He starts to laugh as he keeps repeating those words
Everyone hears him laughing
Psychiatrist: How do you feel when you take the pills?
Ethan: Relaxed, calm
Psychiatrist: And how do you feel when you don't take them?
Ethan: I get angry easily and psychically hurt myself
