Jackie thank you for coming back with us and staying with us the past month. Avery you know you are my daughter and I would do anything for you.
Auntie Kiki said she is coming to take you to the airport, since we are here sick with the
flu.  Okay. You didn't have to do that.

The door bell rings and we think it's Auntie Kiki so Jackie answers it.

Babe go back to sleep. Bye Jackie and thank you.  Your welcome Parker.

Good I caught you before you left.  Angela why are you here? I have come to deal with you interjecting yourself in my family. Jackie just close the door. Avery I  can't do that.

Avery comes closer.

Nani what the hell a gun.  You won't answer my call.

My cell phone rings.  Jane this is father O'Malley your mother was just here. She shot me and I don't have much time to speak.  Get to Avery now. She knows Jackie is leaving. Father thank you I will call for an ambulance.  Thank you and may God be with you my child.

I call Parker and get her on her cell  since baby girl didn't answer hers.

Parker my mother is on her way to kill Jackie. She shot father O'Malley. He called me. Jane she is here now it sounds like. I am enroute bye.

Angela closed the door. I see on the monitors Kiki is opening the door and Angela has a gun pointed at Jackie who is nearby my wife.

Aye you gals here to take Jackie.  Angela what the hell. Kiki put your gun on the table and slide it this way.  Angela why? You and Jackie keep my only grandchild away from me. Kiki do it now or I will shoot you and just add you to my killings today. 

Kiki takes out her gun and slides the gun to my nani. 

I see my wife in the corner of my coming down.
 
Kiki if it wasn't for you and Gloria none of my loved ones would be gay and turned on me. Nani that isn't true.  I still love you please don't do this.

Nani  cocked her revolver. Parker shoots my nani in her head.  The revolver knicks Auntie and she flinched. 

Auntie. Jackie call 911. Parker you okay? Yeah..Avery I didn't want to. Parker my sister in law didn't give you a choice. The ambulance is on the way.  Babe my aunt is right.

Auntie Jane  barged in and sees nani shot and dead.

Auntie you okay ? Yeah. her revolver knicked me when Parker shot her. Parker you okay?No will everyone stop fucking ask me that. I just killed someone.  No I  am not alright. Baby girl we got Auntie go to your wife. 

Parker hands me her gun and I hand it to Auntie Jane.

The ambulance is here to tend to Auntie Kiki. Maur arrives too. I had called her and Frankie when I got the call after I spoke with Parker.

Maur the girls are upstairs.  Okay. 

Maur takes Angela's pulse and shakes her head no.

J I am sorry.  Thank you please go tend to the gals. Jackie come with me too. Ah okay. 

Jackie is in shock.
Frankie comes running in.

MA's revolver is on the ground. Parker's gun will have baby girl and my finger prints. Whose gun is this one? Mine she has me slide it to her. Sis I  got word father O'Malley didn't make it.  Is this who she meant by not the only death basically today? Yes. How did she stay on the loose for so long?Auntie Kiki we don't know and may never know.
