"Lilith, aren’t you going to control your daughter?" I asked.
Lilith just crossed her arms over her chest, shook her head and smirked. "She’s not doing anything unforgivable. Why should I stop her?"
The next second, Tara grabbed the baby’s leg and yanked it downward.
The baby started wailing. I could not stand it anymore so I pushed her away.
Seizing the opportunity, Tara snatched the baby from my arms and lifted him high above her head.
"No!"
My eyes widened in horror. My voice broke as I screamed for her to stop.
Even Lilith’s expression changed as she called out her daughter’s name in panic, "Tara!"
However, Tara just pasted a smile on her face, lifted her hand high and threw the baby down hard.
For one agonizing second, my heart stopped, then plummeted. Something wet splattered onto my feet, but I was too numb to tell what it was.
"Call an ambulance! Someone call an ambulance!"
I dropped to my knees. Both of my hands trembled and I did not even know where to place them.
At the hospital, I stood in the farthest corner and watched as Mario stumbled inside. With a face as white as a ghost and sweat covering his forehead he walked into the emergency operating room in a quick stride.
