Marriage for a Deal
Holding my breath, I prayed fervently that the old lady would secure the gun from Marthina.
Just as relief seemed imminent, Marthina snatched the gun back, redirecting it towards me.
The old lady sighed. "Marthina, no!"
"I'll kill them! They hurt you, not just you, but me. This woman stole my man from me! I'll kill them!" Marthina ordered, glancing at the two men. "Get my mother out of here!"
The old lady's eyes met mine as two men grabbed her arms. In her gaze, I sensed mercy and surrender. Before they pulled her away, her lips moved. She mouthed, "I'm sorry," and tears streamed down her face for us.
