“Boy, one of these days you are going to end up in a heap of trouble all behind some foolishness.” My mama had warned. “For every action there is a reaction.” Never had I thought that it would be like this.
I felt like I was trapped in a bad dream as I lay on the floor in Casper’s hallway in a pool of my own blood. It was like the dream where you are falling and can’t catch yourself or wake up. I could feel my life slowly slipping away. I tried to open my mouth to yell for someone to hurry up and get me some help but for some reason I couldn’t make my mouth move. I could hear people screaming around me but they sounded further and further away with each second that passed. I thought that I heard Kisha’s voice. I could hear her calling my name. She was saying something else but I couldn’t make out what she was saying because she sounded so far away. I wanted to reach out and touch her. Open my eyes and get one last glimpse of her face and tell her that I was sorry for all of the pain that I’d cause her but I couldn’t.
