My Husbands Mistress

Chapter 33-loved again

"May I have a word with her?" I asked detective Williams
She twisted her lips and looked at her partner and I knew the answer so I stood up
"I won't kill her, just five minutes I promise" I begged, I was even willing to be on my hands and knees if they said no

"Why would you want to talk to your husbands mistress after she was planning on basically murdering everyone?" She said staring at Rick the whole time
"Okay I get it alright!" He yelled and the baby started wailing so he sighed and went back in the house

"Shame shame shame, that's why I'm single" she said smiling at me
Lilly started tugging on my leg and I started to get cold "Detective please!" I pleaded once more

Detective Davis came forward "just calm down,and alright, but make it quick" he said
And I smiled showing him my appreciation before telling Lilly to go back in the house and going up to the police car Betty was in

She was in the back staring at me, so detective Davis let her out for me and I thanked him before he moved back and gave us privacy

Betty looked like an unwanted puppy, she looked vulnerable and just overall sad as she stood handcuffed staring at her feet
"Betty-
That triggered her to give me contact
Her lips were a thin line and her eyes looked drowsy
"Do you know.....what's going on?" I asked whispering the last part

Betty looked from left to right as if anyone was watching then looked back at me "the last thing I remembered was you forgiving me and....

I raised both eyebrows, and my palms started sweating for her to finish
"I couldn't stand the way I looked and the death of Johnny and just everything that I ....took my life in jail" she whispered

I put my hand over my heart "you took your life?"
She nodded "then I woke up in my car with Jesus and Enrique,it was like the horrible day where I planned to...you know.. kill everyone..started all over again, but this time I could fix things...what about you?"

I still stared at her stunned, I don't even remember the last thing that happened to me "all I remember was taking some Tylenol for my headache, then I woke up in Laurens bathroom"

"You probably died Krystal" she said
I was speechless

Betty's lips quivered "I don't think I would have gotten a second chance if you hadn't forgave me....I'm sorry Krystal for all the pain I've caused you, I don't even think I would have forgiven myself"

I held my chin trying to think of questions to ask "wait so if you knew that you were given a second chance..why come here? I mean didn't you think I'd call the cops or something?" I asked

"No I didn't even know you went through the same process I did..all I wanted was Johnny to be with Rick..
"Why?" I asked
I mean she could have easily drove far away and took her baby with her

She started tearing up "he died once....I don't want him dying again" she said
I wanted to hold her or just comfort her, cause watching her face turn bright pink and her eyes turn red from crying was not pleasing

She put her head back and sniffed "they will probably send me back to the nut house again, maybe I need it for now....but please watch over Johnny for me" she begged
"Okay times up" Detective Williams said and was about to place Betty back in the police car
"Wait-
"Krystal I'm sorry but she has to go" she said placing her back in the car

"I'm sorry again Krystal" Betty said at the car window
"I'll...I'll take care of your son too alright...he's in good care" I said wanting to cry so bad but didn't even know why, I bit my tongue to keep from crying

The car engine started and Betty looked out the window at me and sunk back in the seat, and as the police car started to drive away I couldn't hold it in anymore "I'll take care of him alright? I promise!" I yelled
