A Misunderstanding

*ring* *ring* *ring* my phone was ringing at three a.m. in the morning. I answered the phone, all it said was “Your mother was shot and I *freeze* did it come to this house - 183 Fort drive - at 11:00 pm tomorrow and I will explain everything.” And then it hung up. All I felt was sadness, I was holding back my tears, but I was mostly mad and as a single tear rolled down my face I knew what I had to do. My name is Marie and I love revenge, and I will do anything when it comes to avenging the people I love most.


After the call, I couldn’t get back to sleep all of the sudden my alarm went off, but there was no way in hell that I was going to work today, or ever. It was 7:00 am, I had exactly 4 hours until I had to be at the killers house. So I got out of bed and did what I did best. I could call the cops but that’s no how I roll, I go eye for an eye style. My bag was packed and I was in the car l, it was now 10:59 am as I pulled up to the house so I put on some gloves on, and grabbed one, special thing out of my bag and knocked on the door with that ‘thing’ hidden behind my back when she opened the door I pulled a shotgun from behind my back and shot her. Once I did, I looked down and saw the deceased face of my… my, my BEST FRIEND! I stood still, not able to move a muscle. All of the noise just drains out of my ears and it was silent. My heart began to sink. I suddenly had a bunch of emotions, guilt for killing my bestie, sadness from having two people I love dead within a week, and anger, why would she kill my mom?


All of the sudden I heard sirens, I looked behind me and saw a police car and I knew that I had blew it. The police hopped out and instantly cuffed me. Dragging me to the car, I pleaded that she killed my mom first. They didn’t listen. We pulled up at a Jail. A few weeks later I was brought to court and the verdict was guilty. My punishment, I will never be released. So I gave myself a sarcastic pat on the back, (when my handcuffs were off) and said, “good job Marie, you really did it this time.”
