No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

My scream was instinctual, and Yolande's voice rang out, "Stop it right now!"

As she yelled, Yolande sprinted over, and a scuffle broke out.

For the first time, I discovered that Yolande knew how to fight - and not just any fight, but with moves that were brutally precise, forcing the two men clutching me to let go and deal with her instead.

I stood there, dumbfounded, momentarily forgetting my fear.

But only a few seconds later, I snapped back to reality and dashed inside.

I wasn't hiding; I grabbed a baseball bat and started swinging at the two men.

Lacking Yolande's martial arts skills, I still had strength, and I couldn't just stand by, watching Yolande take on two guys, doing nothing myself.

Maybe it was the pent-up frustration, but I swung with all my might, forcing the men to turn their attention to me.

Every time they tried to grab the bat from me, Yolande's long legs came swinging, making it impossible for them to get close enough without getting struck.

Together, Yolande and I stood against the two men, and after what seemed like ages, we actually managed to take them down.
