Coming Into Being

Coming into being 24

Jenevie

By all means I don't even have a plan. I'm parked a few blocks away from four's house. I didn't make a plan to attack. I can't just walk in immediately shots would be fired at me. After all they want me to dead. Or maybe I can just bomb the whole house up. But then that will cause too much attention and draw the police. 

Tears came to my eyes again and I quickly wiped them away. I took a deep breath and open the car door and walked towards Four's house.  As his house came into view I noticed the lights were off. They know that a war would be started and everyone would be smart enough to stay on guard and be ready for anything. If I didn't know better I would probably think they are sleeping. I look carefully as best as possible where I was walking. I went through the same window and entered into Four's room. The place was a mess. Everything was scattered and the bed was flipped. He was hiding things in here. I scanned the room and then left. Silently I opened his brother's room and the same prevail. It was messy and even a few bullets were on the ground. I checked the other rooms and they were empty. I went downstairs and into kitchen . I checked but it was empty. It seems they have abandon the place. I checked the fridge and took out an apple. I walked to the front door while taking a bite of the Apple. Reaching the front door I heard a slight beeping sound. My body stiffens and I looked into the direction of the sound and saw it. I had 1 minute and counting.  1 minute 50,49,48  seconds...

"Shit! I knew something was wrong with this darn place." I mumbled and rush upstairs. 47,46,45,44,43,42,41,40,39,38 seconds. I counted in my head. I opened Four's room door and rushed over to the window. To my despair the ladder was moved. Someone is watching the house. 

"Shit ,shit,shit,shit...". What now? 19,18,17,16,15,14... I looked around the room for sheets or something strong enough to help me down. 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1...59. Shit ,less than a minute. Well I just have to jump. May God help me. I climbed out the window,59,49,48,47,46,45,44.. It's now or never Jenevie to say to myself. My legs could be broken after this. I can't jump. 42,41,40,39,38,37,36,34,33,32,31,30.... Less than thirty seconds. I took a deep breath and let go and tried my best to land on my hands instead of putting all the pressure on my feet. I landed on both,but my wrist was hurt maybe due to the excess pressure of my body weight.  24,24,22,21,20,19,18,17.... I used my right hand to myself up and I quickly ran towards my car. I struggled to open the door and went in. The pain in my left wrist stand out and I winced. I toughen up and began reversing. 9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1.... I heard the loud sound and I could see the blazing fire. I turn the car around and rice away towards the one place I could go right now without questions. Annette's house.

I pulled up in her driveway. I checked my watch it was 12:01. I think she would be sleeping but the lights were on. I knocked on the door and Antonio opened the door. His mouth was open and he wasn't moving. I wasn't to stay outside into the cold air so I pushed passed him and walked inside. I heard the closing of the door and I didn't look at him I just walked straight up the stairs and into his room. He came in a few minutes after me.

"When did you get back?" He asks. I walked into his bathroom and grabbed his first aid kit and went back placing it on his bed.

"Are you hurt?" He asks.

"Yes. My wrist.I just need you to wrap it for me." I answered. He walked towards me and open the kit and took out the necessities and began wrapping my wrist and my palm. I looked at him and my heart sunk. I've missed him so much.
