Four or Dead

Chapter 190

"Your mother had a difficult labor with you, and after she had you, no matter how many times I tried, she never got pregnant again. So, I got stuck with you." Nice. Really nice to know what he really thinks about me. He pulls the trigger again. My heart almost stops beating. Is he playing Russian Roulette with me? "But your mother loved you very much. She said you were special." He snorts. "I don't know what's so special about a bitch in heat like you," he says as his right hand- the one he is holding the pistol with-moves around. And then he shoots again, the pistol firing, and the bullet grazes my left cheek. A whimper rushes from my lips, and my hands tremble.

Sitting back at the table, he says, "I didn't take your mother's death well, so I started gambling." After drinking from the bottle, he adds, "I lost all my money in less than a year. Then I started spending the money your mother left for you." My mother left me money? I suppose it does not matter anymore since he lost everything. "It was in a trust fund, and, puff, it is also gone in one night." He laughs and drinks some

Do you think I can use the bathroom?"

He narrows his eyes. "Clean that blood from your face as well. I want you to look your best when you reach your new home."
