The Trial (Discontinued)

Chapter 6

As Tonya was helping Angel up off of their bathroom floor, Angel couldn't help but think what was going to happen to her and her sister. Of course, she didn't have to worry too much because she was used to taking on responsibility. Back when everything was normal, she would practically take on the role of mother as her actual mother had Cerebral Palsy.

She still loved her mother, regardless of what people said about her. She would forever be defensive of her mother, though she was now gone. But her primary focus right now was to protect Tonya and get them out of their house.

"Tenemos que irnos," Angel said with a deep intake of breath. "otherwise, we'll be trapped.

"Where will we go then," asked Tonya. "Live out on the streets?"

"Do you honestly think we would live out on the streets we there are frick'in dead people walking around?" 

"No..." Tonya answered back in a small voice.

"Ok then."

Angel then lifted her weight off of her sister to walk on her own. She winced a bit in pain as her left arm went up instinctively to cover her side. The pain was like a shock wave going through her body, but it was nothing that she couldn't handle on her own. She motioned for Tonya to follow her to her room.

When they got inside the room, Angel went to the very back of her closet and pulled out a long and short object wrapped in cloth. Angel handed the shorter object to Tonya.

"What is this?" Tonya asked in her squeaky voice.

"A mini machete."

"What do I need this for?" 

"To defend yourself of course."

Angel then shuffled out of the room with her machete in hand, still wrapped in cloth. She looked over her shoulder, gazing at her sister and said,"Don't you dare go using that thing unless we are in real trouble, ya hear?"

Tonya replied, "Yes, I hear."

"Alright then, let me call Jay and she what she doing."

As Angel was walking over to get the house phone, she felt her sister's arms wrap around her waist from behind. She was in shock as he sister never did anything like this before towards her.

They always should their love and affection towards one other in private, when no one was looking.Most people who didn't know them would think that they hated each other's guts, but in actuality, they cared for each other very much.

"I just want you to be careful is all...," Tonya said with a shaky voice, with tear threatening to spill over her eyes.

"Don't worry, I wouldn't go get myself hurt when I have you to take care of."

Tonya then let go of her sister and stared at her in awe. She always looked up to her big sister, but now she looked up to Angel in a better light.
