Tristan

I wanted to squeeze the life out of her. Cathy palm her bruised cheek in her hand. Her eyes were wide as she stared at me in shock.

"I will fucking kill you!" I roared. "I get that men, shouldn't put their hands on women... but this time...." My voice quivered. "You've gone way too far!"

Hauling her from the wall. I chucked her across the room and she toppled over on her ass. My hands fisted at my side. All i could see, when i stared at her was red. "I get that you were jealous! I fucking get that but at the same time, this is not the way to go about things! What do you think huh? That after you killed me, Tiana would miraculously turned gay? Sorry to burst your bubble Catherine but it doesn't fucking work that way!"

Cathy started to back away, when I started to advance on her.

"You.... you....." I wagged my fingers at her. Martha jumped infront of Cathy shielding her. "Martha move out of the way..."

"I can't allow you to harm Cathy."

"You have no say in this martha! That cunt hurt Tiana and you're shielding her? Unbelievable! Tch.... then again I'm not surprised seeing as you murdered my mother in cold blood." I seethed.

Martha grimaced at my words.

"Move."

She shook her head. "I won't. Everyone makes mistakes Tristan. You of all person's should know that."

"Mistake?! Your daughter hired someone to fucking kill me!"

"And I would do it again! Only this time I would make sure Tiana isn't around!" Cathy shrieked.

Pushing Martha out of the way. I pounced on Cathy. Wrapping my hand around her scrawny neck, I pressed down on her windpipe. She clawed desperately on her hand.

"Tristan she's not worth it!" Carolyn cried.

"An eye for an eye. A tooth for a fucking tooth!"

"Bruh you don't wanna do this. If you kill Cathy here, you'll only end up going to prison."

"I don't give a fuck!"

"What about Tiana and the baby?" Nathaniel enquired. He squeezed my shoulder.

My eyes flashed to Cathy who looked a little bit green. Spit was dripping from the corner of her mouth. It wouldn't take much for me, to snap her neck right now.

"Come on Tristan.... be the bigger person." Carolyn pleaded.

I clenched my teeth together.

"Tr.... Tristan...." A feeble voice, drifted to my ears. Tensing, my head whipped to the side. Black as night orbs, bored into my eyes.
