“Why’d you take me? Why not kill me there?” he asked

“You knohy”

He fell silent “Guess I do”

Well There it was “You still rape girls?”

He looked at me I saw no remorse, but he seemed to have lost his calculation It was like he knew there were no more moves for him

“Yeah”

“You must enjoy that?”

He shrugged “Yeah”

“Right” I lifted un and shot him

He was as surprised as I was, but by the tiun, it was too late

I thuot him in the chest

He fell back, blood spilling fro up and out of his mouth He rolled to his side, then the other side

He was trying to craay

I frowned That wasn’t hoas supposed to go

Then again, I didn’t kno any of this was supposed to happen

I didn’t follow hiain I already loathedto hold on to this for the rest of my life

I twisted to the side and voround

Bang!

I froze before looking back

Not so scary

I wanted to stay like this forever

“There was a poster about a uys said they looked si-poster girl? I found the house she’s working froht”

“Maybe”
