Yvonne walked into her room
she cried uncontrollably pleading with God to intervene and save her from the horrible dream she was currently experiencing.
When the police returned a few days later, they questioned the children about what had transpired at the cliff and how Mandy had fallen off.
"I witnessed the man who shot my sister," Yvonne told her parents and the police about the assassin.
A few weeks later, Mandy's body was sent home for a last farewell.
As they carried her daughter to be buried, Mrs. Walters sobbed loudly, and her husband consoled her while he consoled his daughters.
"Mandy is no more Matilda, it's just us now"
"Who is next?"
"Shuu, there isn't a here.
Mum grew pale as she kept searching for her daughters killer with no result; mourning her kids wasn't doing Mrs Walters any good she was really not fine.
Dad had to sit with mum to make sure she eats from his hand everyday, my mother was just existing at this point because she needed to remember she still had a child who's suffering terribly.
Have you ever lost a sibling? It hurts so much i just want to catch my sisters killers, i want to know why he did what he's done. My best friend has been taken away too, i feel so empty and i keep asking myself who's after us?
I'm a grade 8 pupil and right now i feel like, i don't want to go to school anymore.
But i won't be a loser so I'll go to school, I'll do anything to make my mother to be fine again. i heard Mum talking to Dad this morning.
" Who did we harm? what did we do wrong?"
"Honey take it easy on yourself please, we hurt no one and we would find the monster that took our beloved girl, she'll get justice.
"Hey mum, Dad good morning" Yvonne greeted

"Mummy I'll be fine, but how are you?

"Good morning my Darling come here" mum said as she hugged us before we left for school.
"I'm so sorry, Yvonne, I'm sorry, Matilda, how are you?" Mrs. Janet hugged us as soon as she spotted us entering.
Matilda declared, "I want to stop going to school."
"I noticed Mom crying, and she seems hurt.
"come here let's go to my office darling" .
My dad was shot, but luckily only received minor injuries, so he survived. He had become a threat while searching for my sister's killers and trying to help us seek justice for her.
We assumed it was someone from the corporation, but there was still no one to blame. My mother started to get worried about me and gave me a call one evening.
"Yvee, please come here. Yes, mom." "I need a favor from you
What's that?
"There's this friend of mine, i want you to be going over at their house, they own a company he'll teach you the tricks of business.

**************
After three months, Dad was taking us to the location my mother had told me about. I will truly miss my mother; I detest being apart from her, but I will comply with her wishes. Our brake failed, and there were some strange-looking folks in front of us when something horrible happened. Our father made us conceal, but when he realized they were unaware of our presence, he opened the car and forced us to crawl to a bush on the ground.
"Don't look back girls," "How about you daddy" "Daddy will take care of them, now run, run"
We watched from a hiding place as they viciously beat our father.
Daddy was half gone when they left him we came out to help but he told us something
