I gather the candles and lit them. We had a nice fire going in the living room, and it was cozy and warm enough but we still gather blankets to curl up in. The big living room window had a small draft and I kept meaning to get around to fixing it. We were talking then all of a sudden Molly asked “ do you see a light out there toward the back pasture?” 

I got up to look and sure enough it was back, the same truck that had caused Kyle to fall off the barn ladder was out their again. I froze thinking what to do? I could see a man and it looked like someone else was with him this time, I couldn't tell if it was male or female though. What is he up to Molly said “I didn't know but it looked like he was looking for something.”

The wind was starting to pick up, and the rain had formed puddles, just then I heard a woman scream and through the rain I saw a shovel and the man started dragging something in the woods. Molly and I were terrified had we just witness a murder? A murder here on my own  farm? I ran to my phone and called the sheriff, the deputy said “The road was washed out toward my way, but that they could come around by the by pass at gator crossing, it would take them awhile, but they would be on there way.” He advise me and Molly to stay inside with doors locked, yeah like I really needed to be told that. I hung up with him and told

Molly about our situation. We thought at the same time and both went for the gun above the mantle, It was already cocked and loaded. Then we heard him outside the house yelling I'm going to find it, even if I half to kill you girl. 'Molly asked “what is he talking about?” I could only look at her, and plead with my eyes and say “I don't know.” Mean while he was getting closer, oh God he's on the porch. He started kicking the front door, Molly and I started piling furniture up in front of the door. I grabbed the gun and yelled to him to leave or  I was going  to blow his head off .

That didn't deter him a bit so I fired a warning shot right through the top of my front door, he fell backwards and yelled you stupid Bitch I'll get you then he took off have wobbling to his truck. I got a better look at him this time. He had dark hair and about 5ft 8, medium build, and yes his truck was green. The same truck that had taken my parents lives. What had happen to the girl that was with him?
