Chapter 26

• MARIA
• “Oxytocin and what’s the name of that drug you called again?...” I ask the nurse who is with me while trying hard to remember what she called for me. I didn’t want to look dumb but I had a lot going on in my head. This bitch was doing nothing yet she messed with my head effortlessly. I’ve been uneasy since she came and it felt like she was going to snatch Julian away from me. She didn’t even need to do anything yet she has taken him away from me.
• She rolled her eyes before giving me an answer “Misoprostol…” I wanted to slap her face hard before sending her off. I was the one who needed her help so I have to put up with her tantrums. She knows she has the upper hand here and she’s making it quite obvious.
