Betrayal

Free Search Engine Submission Monday morning Chris woke up feeling down, he could sense something bad was going to happen. He left his apartment unsure if he should go to work or stay at home, he took a cab to work, since his car was still in service, inside the cab he saw a gun, that had fell down from the previous passenger, that's what he thought, and he chose not to tell the driver, instead he decided to take it, simple because someone had been stalking him, and having a gun gave him a relief, and courage to face whatever comes, little that he knew that the gun he took will destroy his life completely.

Chris got off ten metres away from where he works and paid the cab drive, and left without taking his change. While Chris was walking toward his Office building , the driver immediately made a phone call.

Chris gotten to work, his mood had changed, he was extremely happy. He greeted all his colleagues, starting with the receptionist girl he always ignored, just because she never stopped talking, she always said nonsense, and meaningless things. Soon as he entered his office. Everyone gathered and started asking one another, hoping someone had an answer of what just happened, because Chris  normally just talk to his assistant jennifer.

He asked his assistant to bring him coffee. Minutes passed by, he started feeling dizzy and started sweating. He fell asleep, half an hour later the telephone rang, and woke him up, he slowly picked it up, and answered it with a crisp voice. It was his girlfriend Emily, she was crying, and she told Chris that her father was shotted in a robbery and they took his car.

Chris immediately stood up and ran so fast, he didn't even take the lift. He took the stairs, but he arrived at the same time as the one who took the lift,and rushed outside and took a cab.

But when I was there I felt free, there was less pollution and the houses were further apart. Everyday started slowly and ended calmly, no drama. It was like I was in haven surrounded by angels. It was a Monday, the 22nd of June. The day started normally; breakfast followed by never ending household chores. Midday, after lunch, Grandma was busy with sewing and everybody had gone to where they entertained themselves. My younger cousin had gone to his friends. They had just been introduced to puberty and were following weird trends. They were cutting their hair like football stars, a style they called “Steko”. They wore sneakers and skinny jeans; their idea of a swag. All the village girls were crazy about them. My aunt was the worst. The tavern was like a job to her, she attended in shift...
