"Come on Salvy finish your food," I ordered as I stirred caramel into my coffee.

"I'm not hungry." He said and stared at the police officers loitering around our living room.

"Look I know you are not comfortable with them around but, you have to eat so you can go to school and I can go to work. Okay, baby?"
"Okay." He said and popped a piece of bacon into his mouth.

"Stat here while I go get Jake," I said, rubbed his hair, and turned towards the stairs. I opened the door and placed Jake on my back. He was getting bigger and bigger by the minute.

"Come on, let's go," I said when I had gotten downstairs.

"Kenzie the baby is slowing you down." Dennis barked, spilling some of the correction fluid.

"No, he is not."

"He is. Your working ability has reduced drastically since you had that baby."

"How can you ask me to get rid of my son?"

"I'm not asking you to get rid of him. Just take him to an orphanage or something."

"It's the same thing, Dennis," I said and ran my hands through my hair.

"No, it's not."

"Look, if you don't want my son, then you don't want me so I quit."

"What? Kenzie you need this job."

"No one needs this job," I said and walked out of the office.

"Go upstairs and change your clothes," I said to Salvy and he ran upstairs with Jake in his arms. Just then, I heard whistling and turned. I saw a person standing behind mum who was writhing on her chair with her mouth tied.

"At last we meet Kenzie." The person said.
"Who are you?" I asked as I saw him point a gun at mum's head. He dipped his hand into his hoodie and took it off and I swear I'm not making this up. I saw Kiara looking at me in the face.

"Kiki wh....what are you doing?" I stuttered.
"I'm going give you a plain answer. I'm here to kill. Well, to finish my killing."

"What do you mean to finish your killing?"

"Are you that daft Kenzie Williams? I mean, don't you see?

"Wait you are the killer?"

"Ding ding ding ding. You just won yourself a prize." She said and giggled.

"But the initials, they...they say K.T but...."

"My name is Kiara Yang? Hon, my name is Kiara Tsukatoshi. Does that name ring a bell?"

"Tsukatoshi? Of course, Kim is your brother." I said hitting my forehead with my palm. "But why are you doing this?"

"Because, after you refused his proposal he got depressed. I decided to take him on a hike to brighten his spirit. He got so excited and started to talk about you so much that he tripped and fell off the cliff and died."

"How is that my fault?"

"If you hadn't refused his proposal this wouldn't have happened."

"But..."

"Shut up, I'm not done. This is why I decided to kill everyone you love and now I'm going to kill your mum, Sal, and that little puppet Annie gave birth to."

"But I thought we were friends? How could you do this to me?"

"You thought wrong."

"You were like family, like a sister like me. I can't believe I let the demon into my life."

"Demon"?" She asked sarcastically. I feel insulted, I'm the devil and I don't regret anything I did and I would do it again if I get the chance." She laughed.

"No, please you don't have to do this," I begged as I saw her finger tightening around the trigger. Just then, she jerked and turned. I saw that Salvation had hit her with a rod.

"You little brat." She screamed and attacked him, I ran after her and jumped on her so she let Salvy go. She faced me and started to punch me in the face. I rolled her over and we were soon on the floor. Almost immediately, she rolled me over too, and was on top of me. She started to choke me with her two hands bleeding badly. I felt the floor and found something pointy. A bradawl. I stabbed her on the lap and she screamed. She pulled it out and raised it to stab me. Just then, I saw her eyeball roll in as she fell to the door. I stood up and saw that Salvy had stabbed her with a carving knife. I covered my mouth with my blood-stained hand as I stared at the body.

******
"So you see Monica, you haven't gone through half what I had gone through. Suicide is not the best option." I said to my student when I finished the story. As Monica walked out, my phone rang. I ignore it and ran down the stairs.

"What too you do long mama?" A 4-year-old Jake asked. He called me mama instead of mum.

"I was a busy baby," I replied picking him up.

"I and Pop have a lot of fun." He said, referring to Randy.

"Yep, we did." He agreed and kissed me on the lips.

"Ewww," Jake complained.

We chuckled as we walked elegantly into Randy's blue Subaru.

This may seem like the end but, it's only the beginning.
