Shakira's POV

- 𝘽𝙊𝙊𝙈 -

I shot up from my bed frantically , from the sound of thunder gunshot to my ears . The rain was so heaving you can hear it dropping on the rooftop .

I finally got up off the bed to take a look at the scene outside my window , it was still dark it's most likely early right now . I turn to the nightstand and take my phone off the charger. It's ➍:➊➌ in the morning .

I open my matte black curtains once more to take a look at the rainfall . It was beautiful the lightning was a fuchsia & red mix and the clouds was a sickening dark purple . A simply lightning struck could be so fatal but the scene is so beautiful . It reminds me of life , could be filled with joy , radiance and love . That's the beauty of it . Or could be like mine full of distraught , broken hearts , deaths 𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 , & 𝐨𝐛𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧  .

I slip on my monster slippers and head downstairs . I heard cabinets slamming and glass breaking but I didn't hear anyone . As I make my way into the kitchen I hear my mom crying hysterically drinking a bottle of Corona . But as you can't tell by the millions of bottles shattered on the kitchen tiles and the ones on still together on the table .

"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU LOOKING AT BITCH" she yelled at me and then started laughing . This bitch is outta her fucking mind .

"EVERYONES DYING BUT YOU WHEN ARE YOU GONNA DIE HAVE NO PURPOSE AT ALL JUST SIT IN THAT ROOM WATCHING TV ALL DAY " She said I mean it was true I am worthless but she don't gotta remind me .

"what are you talking about I think your just drunk bitch" I said rolling my eyes grabbing the broom and dust pan to sweep up the glass .

"tu otro hermano murió en un tiroteo porque quieres alentarlo a que sea un traficante de drogas y un matón estúpido si no mueres pronto, yo seré el que te mate" she slurred her words .

Translation : your other brother died in a shoot out because you wanna encourage him to be a drug dealer and a thug you stupid bitch if you don't die soon I'll be the one to kill you  .

She laughs while crying but downing the Corona's at the same time , she fucking insane .

But then it just hit me ... JOEL !!! My whole world came crashing down I dropped down on my knee falling on a shards of glass . I grunted from the revolting pain in my knees , but I wasn't focused on that Joel cant just be gone . She gotta be lying this can't be true , she just drunk .
