Things Just Kept Haunting Her
It all happened so fast. Angela could barely see what was going on. One second they were standing at the porch about to go inside and the next, shots were fired and Gael was covering her with his body.
She screamed, thinking they shot him.
Angela was so scared to move as Gael stilled on top of her while she lay on the ground.
Another round of shots was fired, from God knows where, as the hum of the motorcycle continued. She thought they were going to die that night.
Gael pushed himself off of her. "Are you hurt?" he asked, sounding terrified as he frantically searched her body.
She couldn't even speak as she shook her head, noting that she didn't get shot. She was too petrified to come up with words while she busily scanned him up and down. "A-Are you?" she managed to utter.
