Worst Behavior

I layed under Martina staring her directly in the face.

The gun went off but she didn’t move and neither did I.

For a second Martina looked around making sure that she wasn’t shot and when she realized she wasn’t she stood up.

The minute she got up I lifted myself up only to fall back to the ground clutching my side.

I felt a burning sensation and blood gushing from my side.

The more I moved the more came out and the more it hurt.

I put pressure on the bullet wound just to keep the blood from coming.

“Now that you’re out of the way” Martina said adjusting her clothes.

She walked over to Addison and picked her up.

“Poor baby is turning blue” She commented.

“Pleas—“

I started coughing up blood and chocking on it.

Martina walked towards the door and stood there looking at me.

“Say bye to your mommy” She cooed to Addison.

Tears came to my eyes as I watched Martina walk out of the door.

After she left I managed to crawl towards the door.

I layed there feeling worse then before.

“Someone please help me” I whispered.

I knew that no one was gonna hear me but I said it anyways.

I started crying as the blood came out of my mouth.

The thought of what Martina might do to Addison caused me to cry harder.

But if Addison was gonna die, I’m gonna die too.

“Hello” I heard a deep voice yell. “Is someone in there?”

I cried harder letting them know that I was in here because I couldn’t talk.

“Can you open the door” He asked.

I looked up and the door handle seemed so high up.

I gathered all the strength I can and I reached up trying the best I could to grab onto the door handle.
