Monday, I woke up at 6 am to get ready for work, I put on my clothes and go into the living room, Everybody was still asleep and the house was still. I sneaked into the kitchen to get the keys to the van. Once I got them I got into the van and started to drive off to the address the note said. All of a suddenly I got a phone call it was an unknown number. "Hello, who's this?" I asked "Keep driving they said" then the phone hung up. I kept on driving and saw nothing much. After five minutes I was waiting on a red light to turn green. Without notice I heard a knock at the window. "Open the fucking window or I'll blow your brains out!" he shouted" He was wearing a black mask and has a gun in his had pointed directly at my head. I got out of the van slowly. "Give me all the shot you have!" He said "its all in the van" I responded He peered into the van keeping the gun aimed at me checking to see if there was anything "Where in the van?" He asked "The glove compartment" I said. He stated walking around to the passwnger seat and opened the door. While he was doing this I was thinking of how to handle the situation then I remembered that I had the gun in my pants still. I checked on him he was still done looking in the glove compartment amd looked around more, Still distracted atleast. I started to move my arms down and reach for my gun. I could feel it in my hands the coldness of the steel and the trigger my hands were trembling I was sweating and my heart was racing. I took a deep breath and tried to make up a plan but I couldn't think of one my mind was gone. I had to wing it, I started to walk around the van and saw him not being able to see me the whole time. I walked up behind him and froze I built up all of my will and said to him "Hey whoever you are leave or youll get shot." He turned around and raised his arms up "Hey man Im sorry ill leave you alone just please dont kill me" He said. I was relived but then he did something, his arms started to move down and reach for something. I was terrified I thought he was reaching for his gun trying to kill me me. I wasnt taking my chances for to die today so I closed my eyes and gripped the gun and with all my inner will power I pulled the trigger. One loud bang and then the world felt silent like it had suddenly stopped and it was just me. I opened my eyes and I saw him laying there I looked at my hands and they were shaking like crazy. The gun dropped to the ground. I looked down and saw the body of a man that once was. I fell to the ground and started to cry I was scared. It felt like the world was crashing around me.
