I charged at her, grabbing her neck and we fell to the floor. How dare this b***h spit on me" We were tussling and that's when she reached and grabbed for a gun.

"Oh you're a real badass, huh Dee? Throw another punch and I'll scatter your f*****g brains all over this room."

"KILL ME!" I screamed.

"Don't tempt me, b***h."

"All of this for what? You're doing all of this for money? I guess some things don't change. You'll still sell yourself for the right price, huh?"

"Oh, cute. Real cute." She said.

She stared at me and cocked the gun.

I stood firmly, staring her in her face. At this point, I had nothing to lose. She stood holding the gun up at me. My heart was racing. I said a silent prayer. I needed to get out of here.

"Drop the gun, Amanda."

I looked past her, it was my mom.

"Mom?" I screamed.

"Deysire, stand back baby."

"Well, well, well... If it isn't Mother of the year. You know, Ms. Lena, I know you won't use that because if you did, what would people think of your Holy Holy act? Deysire, you're just like your mom, A pathetic, little b**ch." I charged towards her and heard the gun go off. My heart dropped, I thought I was dead. My mom had shot her.

"Is she dead?" My mom asked.

"Mom, give me the gun." I said reaching for the gun. She was trembling.

"I didn't... I didn't... Baby, I didn't mean to."

"shh... I did it, mom. I shot her."

"Baby, I can't let you."

"Mom, you've protected me my entire life. Now, it's my turn to protect you, even if it kills me."
