I walked into the boutique and saw what she was doing she was going through the front desk & the register for cash.
She didn't notice that I was standing right there, she was so into raiding the shelfs and register. I pulled her by her hair over the counter.
She screamed and said," get off of me you broad." I replied," a woman is pulling the living shit out of your hair and that's the on B word you can think of?" She began to pull away eventually she got away from my grip and all hell broke loose.
She started punching me on the ground & started to scratch and claw my face. She was screaming something that made me question if I was the one who was crazy or was she.
She kept screaming," stop struggling Carlina! Stop it! Stop it!" She wrapped her hands around my neck, and wouldn't let go, my throat began to close. My head started pounding and my vision started to phase.
She stared crying and started saying look what you're making me do, when in the blink of an eye a gun fired from behind us, the woman was shot, it was the cop that warned me about Gina he had gone ghost for a couple of weeks, I was relieved to see him.
He said," long time no see, Ms.Mastisson." I said," Hello... Officer..." " Darengers" he interrupted. My mind paused so did everything in my body. I couldn't think nor move. He asked," are you okay?" I nodded.
I was thinking to myself, if I try or say anything funny he'll probably harm me since Tim is his brother.. Well that's what I think, maybe there's a lot of Darengers that aren't related.
He said," she was quite a fighter, huh?" I nodded. He said," listen I'll file a report and I'll let you go get cleaned up & then, I'll give you a call from the precinct." Again I nodded I didn't quite exactly know what to say.
While I walked out, Officer Darengers did something pretty Cliché he said," Ughh... Ms.Mastisson-" "Carly" I interupted.
" Well, Ughh.. Carly I don't know if you have anything planned tonight, but after we file your attacker how would you like to uhh.. Go on an uhh.. Date?"
I said," Ughh.. Officer Darengers you're very sweet but no, I can't date right now." He grabbed my hand and said," Come on..... Please, Carly." I thought for a while and made up my mind.
"Yes."
