Trapped In A World

Thoughts

Marina and Veronica just finished packing so i decided to fix up some dinner to thank them. They immediately came downstairs and dug right in. I had made mashed potato, pork chop and corn. Once we were done, I went to the corner store with Veronica to buy ice cream, chips and candy.

When we returned, we all went to the basement and watched Despicable Me. At half way through the movie, I went to go use the bathroom. After I finished washing my hands, I planned to scare Marina and Veronica so I quietly crept down the step's. " Now that she's gone," started Veronica, I stood still to hear what she was gonna say, " I can finally tell you," I was so confused but I still listened, " I bought the gun you asked for," She finished. I didn't hear what Marina said but I quietly opened and shut the door so they knew I was coming and proceeded downstairs.

We finished watching the movie and went to our rooms. I couldn't sleep knowing the fact that they have a gun and they might try to kill me. I always thought Veronica was a true friend but theres a chance I might die. Veronica was my first true and only friend I had since I was in daycare.

I grabbed the gun that was used to kill my father, which I had permission to keep for self defense, and placed it under my blanket. I heard Marina walking towards my room so i pretended to be sleeping. She slowly opened my door and I felt her watching me sleep. " I'll miss you, goodbye," I heard her whisper. I then popped up with the gun pointing at her. "DROP THE GUN!" I screamed. She did so and put her hands in the air. I got up walking slowly toward's her and she suddenly fell to the ground followed by a gunshot.

It was Veronica. She had a crazy look on her face. "Now it's just me and you," she started, "Were finally alone," she began to slowly walk towards me. " Okay Veronica, gently place the gun on the floor and step away" I said, I felt a warm tear run down my face. "I love you," she mumbled, then she slowly placed the gun to her head, "NOOO!!!" I screamed but it was too late. I dropped the gun and ran towards her. I sat next to her crying for about an hour. I lost her. I couldn't believe it. I stood up slowly and wiped my tears and made it to my room. I dialed 911 and again they rushed. I told them what happened and they wrapped there bodies and that left me alone. Minutes later a social worker came and talked to me. She explained that since all my family was scattered in the U.S I would have to stay with a foster home. I refused and called my half sister. She rushed here. She agreed to take care of me. But i had to move in with her. I finally accepted it and moved with her. The rest of my life went fine. Until everything twists.
