She tries to sputter an answer,
but Scott interrupts her. Over
my dead body will you take
this baby out of here. Have
you gone completely insane?
He would be dead in a week.

“Do you really think I’d kill
my fucking baby? What kind
of a person do you think I am?”
I notice Jake, standing in the
archway, staring. “What the fuck

I reach toward him, but Mom
shakes her head. No. Jake,

I expect a heated spew, but
