  Jamie feels the steel pressed against the back of her head as her eyes remain glued to the box atop the closet shelf that contained the gift she received from Phillip.  She cannot believe that Perez took things to a new level as she exercised everything she learned from her anger management course and had a hunch that he had no intentions of really harming her.   However, she made preparations just in case.

  "Baby, can you please get that bullshit off of the back of my head?"  She asks as he presses the pistol against the back of her head harder.  "Look, I don't know who you think you're fucking with, but just in case you are confused, I don't do that disrespectful shit."  She digresses as much as she can as she responds with "Nobody's playing games.  Now, for the second time, can you please, pretty please, get that bullshit off of my head.  You're fucking up my hair."

  He pauses as he slowly removes it from her while she exhales from his cooperation.  He chuckles as he wraps his arms around her with pistol in hand providing her with a warm embrace telling her "You know I be trippin' when it comes to my babeee.  How about I put this thing away while you fix your hair and we start this evening all over again?" She nods her head as he releases his hold from her and backs away with caution.

   "Baby, I have to watch you.....I got a hunch that there's things about you that I still have to learn."  He says while waving his pistol playfully as she gives a half smile and says "Yeah baby, I know exactly what you mean."  as her heart suddenly begins to beat excessively.  Fear consumed her as she came to the conclusion that if he made such a scene over this, how would he react once he found out she was indeed a he.  She watched him step into the other room as she took this moment to take yet another peek at the gift once more before placing it elsewhere just in case Perez got nosey and began to snoop around.  She pauses before leaving the room to make minor adjustments to her hair as she takes a deep breath then says to herself before exiting "Here we go."

  Immediately upon stepping past the doorway, she blacked out from being struck by the butt of Perez's pistol.  Moments after, she awakened in a hazy state as she witnesses Perez's feet maneuvering past her toward the closet to recover the gift.  The pain finally set in as she spits a piece of chipped tooth from her lips.  With one hand holding the top of the box open, he cocks the hammer of the pistol with his other hand as she quickly tries to gather her wits about herself before he turns her direction.  "Shit!" She says as she struggles to get back on her feet.

  Her head jerks back as he strikes her across her forehead with the barrel multiple times before she loses balance and falls to her knees.  He presses the cylindrical barrel between her eyes and says "You got to the count of three to give me the shit!"

"One....."

  Jamie closes her eyes tightly hoping that this nightmare will end.

"Two...."

   Jamie opens her eyes realizing that the end is far from near as she looks him directly in the eyes and says "Okay, okay, okay.  I'll show it to you, if you really must know what it is."

  He slowly pulls the weapon from her head approximately two inches before she reveals....
