" Wait daddy! Take something with you." I said worried and scared at my mom's side. She looked scared as well. " Don't worry princess everything will be ok ," he said while drying my tears. They were pounding at the door," open the door, Carlos or I'll kill all your family right in front of you!" Said one of the men that was pounding at the door. I was so frightened. My mom had already called the police 10 minutes ago. She was also crying, " Carlos don't go just wait till the cops get here, those men can be armed," she said begging him. He looked at her and said, " they'll break in either way. It's the only choice. The cops are 30 minutes away from here.I have to and as soon as I get them away from the door I want you and Minica to run out of here as fast as you can. Ok Minica?" He asked me and I simply nodded my head, still crying. I looked into his honey browned eyes that were full of sadness. Then my mom looked at him and said ," but what about you? I can't just leave you." He turned to her and said, " you can and you will. Don't worry I'll find you." My mom closed her eyes and cried, " I love you, I've always have and I always will," she said; my dad kissed her on her lips and said, " I love you too." He looked at me and said, " I love you as well my little Minica. Make sure you help your mom with anything , ok?" I hugged him and kissed him on his cheek and said, " ok daddy... I love you too. Be careful." He kissed me back, " c'mon lets go." He said turning around. We walked out of the room and went towards the door. They were still pounding on the door. My mom and I hid near the door. My dad yelled at them and said," what do you want!" A man yelled back," don't act like you don't know!" My father then swung the door open and hit one of the men with the baseball bat that he had. He walked backwards slowly. The two men charged in. They were far enough for us to run. We both shot up and ran toward the car. By then one of the men with long black hair grabbed my dad from his wrist and put them behind his back. My dad was struggling hard against them. They looked too strong for him. He only got a few hits. The other man looked at us and said, "we'll get them later." He had curly brown hair and dark black eyes that made me so scared of him. He turned his attention back on my dad and said something to him that I couldn't hear. Then I screamed at the most hideous, terrifying sound and sight in my life. A gunshot. The man with the curly brown hair shot my daddy! " daddy!!!" I cried out. We were in the car and my mom also looked afraid and she quickly started to drive backwards. I saw my daddy fall to the ground. The two men where grinning. I was so mad with them." It's going to be alright, Minica," my mom said sobbing. So many tears were falling from her light brown eyes." Alright..." She whispered.
