Mary's Choice
Leaving might not be the right choice, but it's the hardest, and it still feels like her only option.
She needs to accept the guilt of the demon deal that's eating her alive. She needs to mourn the life she no longer has; to grieve for her husband and babies. She needs to read John's journal a hundred times from start to finish. She needs to learn everything she can about her sons, and the strange world they live in.
Maybe once she's done all of that she'll find herself; maybe then she can be the mother her boys deserve.
A/N: Was I the only one creeped out by that doll in the crib and the baby cries? *shivers* I don't often have that reaction to Show, but dolls, puppets and mannequins all creep me out. The ending of course was hard hitting, and in my view, perfect. I could fully understand Mary's need to leave and I think Show have portrayed her wonderfully, warts and all, and I loved how the boys both reacted so differently to her departure. She'll be back I'm sure, but I wanted to do one more Mary POV drabble to try to capture her thoughts as she left
