Chapter 34: THE UGLINESS OF HATE

"GET OUT OF HERE FAGGOT!"

There was a group of four or five young white men across the street. One of them had thrown a rock at Lance and it had hit him in the face! Kendra quickly went down to her own knees to check him. Ashleigh was staring in disbelief at the laughing men. One of them glared at Ashleigh and flexed his wiry muscles.

"What the fuck are you looking at, Nigger?!"

Ashleigh's mouth dropped in shock. Lance shook Kendra loose and stood up quickly. Blood was streaming down his face but he pushed the girls behind him.

"What the hell is wrong with you?!" He screamed. "You could have hit these ladies and one of them is pregnant!"
