Shadows Die

"NO, OH MY GOD NO! NO, NO, NO, NOOO!" I screamed at my Grandma,

"Are you sure, Jade?" She questioned me calmly.

"OF COURSE I'M SURE, I'M THE ONE THAT FUCKING DONE IT, YOU STUPID FUCK CASE!" I screamed holding this skin together.

Grandma looked at me in horror of the blood on my arm,

"W-well.. My licence is still revoked.." She stuttered.

"So?.. Who will take me!?" I questioned in panic.

"Uh.." Grandma rolled her eyes looking from side to side, scanning the room for an idea or two.

"Your father, I guess." She shrugged.

Silence fell across the room as my Dad looked up at Grandma, his eyes were red and glassy - he'd obviously been drinking again.

"Oh," Grandma sighed. "Well, uh, sweetie we'll have to walk.."

I shook my head violently in disagreement,

"No. Nope, uh-uh. No. That is not happening."

Grandma and I looked at each other searching for answers within each others facial expressions.

"Jade," she said sternly...

"WHAT?!" I screamed,

"No, don't be like that, I'll call an ambulance, alright?" She questioned me in a polite tone.

"I'm not getting in a van."

"Well, that or you walk..." Grandma started walking toward the door, "or we can just stay here.. At home.." She froze in her steps.

"Gran?" I said,

"Jade, I have an idea that you probably won't like." Grandma said slowly.
