Dad

Two shots rang in the air.

"Daddy!" She screamed as her father sank down, a gaping wound in his chest. The robbers quickly ran out the door. She ran to her father. She quickly dialed the police.

"Dad! Daddy! H-Hold on. The police are coming okay? They're bringing the ambulance with t-them and y-youre gonna be okay." Her voice broke but she realized that he probably couldn't hear her. She watched helplessly as blood ran down his chin.

"A-angel. Angel, you be strong okay?" He said barely above a whisper, choking on his own blood. Her mother ran into the shop and she sank down to her knees.

"Frank! Oh God, what happened?!" Her mother was hysterical.

Everything blurred after that and she'd hardly noticed the paramedics that came in three minutes later.

Rose had seen as the light slowly went out from her father's eyes and they'd hunted her ever since. All she could remember as one of them spoke with her, with a fresh towel around her, was the cold unseeing eyes of her father.
