It is March 31st, 1995. Selena finds out that Yolanda had been stealing money from her and she isn't too happy about it. She drives to Days Inn Hotel where she meets Yolanda there.

"Are you kidding me, Yolanda?! You stole the papers!" The 23 year old Selena yells in anger at the 34 year old Yolanda Saldívar, showing her the papers in her face. "Even worse, you have been stealing my money! What were you thinking?!"

"S-Selena, please, I can explain..." Yolanda starts talking. "I never meant you harm. I only just—"

"Just what? The fact that you've been stealing money that was rightfully MINE behind my back is just insane! How am I supposed to trust you now?!" Selena interrupts Yolanda, staring at her in disbelief and anger. "How could you do this? You know how much my fans mean to me..."

"Selena, please, if you can just let me explain—"

"NO." Selena yells. "No. I'm done, Yolanda. You can forget our friendship. In fact, you can forget everything, because you're being fired."

Yolanda stares at Selena in complete shock and disbelief, processing what she just heard. Silence fills the air.

"No, no, no, Selena wait—"

"No, I'm done. You're not gonna make me change my mind any time soon." Selena says, grabbing her purse and putting the handle around her shoulder. "It's over, Yolanda. Goodbye."

Just as the 23 year old was about to head out the door, Yolanda grabs a gun. "DON'T YOU WALK OUT THAT DOOR!"

*BOOM*

Selena hangs on to the door, shocked and terrified about what just happened. She stares down at her bloody wound on her chest and shakily holds it. "W-Wha...?"

Selena is shot for the second time. She quickly runs out of the hotel room to try and flee from Yolanda. "HELP! SOMEBODY! PLEASE HELP ME!"

Yolanda chases after her, trying to shoot her again. "BITCH!" Yolanda screams, still holding the gun. Selena tries to run as fast as possible. She reaches the hotel lobby and frantically knocks on the door, terrified for her life. Workers from the hotel lobby take notice and brings Selena in. 911 is called immediately as workers try to help out Selena.

"Lock the door... she'll shoot me again!" Selena begs, scared of what's going to happen next. She tries to gasp for air, but it's no use.

"It's okay, ma'am, you're going to be okay. 911 will be here shortly." One of the workers assure Selena, trying to calm her down. "Can you tell us who shot you?"

Selena takes a moment to say something. "Yolanda... room 158..." She   says then passes out shortly after.

A little while later, the police and the ambulance show up. They take Selena in the ambulance and drive her immediately to the hospital while Yolanda is trying to get away from the police.
