A Bloody Past+

From under the bed I could see how my mother's body shook in agony. I observed how she held in her tears caused by the pain in her body, yet no trace of fear was portrayed in her beautifully sculpted face. 1.....2.....3*boom* *boom* 2 gunshots were fired that night............the same night my parents were killed. I still remember clearly how she gave me a reassuring look, the same look parents give their children when they tell them It will be ok..........yet, deep down she knew it wouldn't be.
