Without thinking, Lindsey had blared "I'd rather die!" at the top of her lungs. My father watched as my mother froze, then burst fleeing to their bedroom to wail behind the door. He quietly tucked his notebook in his jacket pocket, took the car keys off the hook by the back door, and snuck out.

By me I mean "innocents" people who have a good criminal record. Well anyways we found him; long story short it was my long lost brother who was hired to kill me... TO BE CONTINUED
