The woman
#WritcoStoryPrompt7
The old woman dropped her purse, spilling it's contents all over the sidewalk. He rushed ahead to help her stopping short when he saw the gun under the purse. He looked up at her face to find that her face was completely covered with acid scars, it took him another second to realize that she was Sam a woman who survived a acid attack back when she was 24 the man asked her " Miss Sam why are u carrying a gun around?" she quietly motioned towards a bench on the sidewalk, both of them sat down on the bench and Sam broke the silence with the words " self defense "she continued " when I was 24 a guy who was 45 asked me to marry him,being only 24 I refused to marry a 45 year old , he got mad and stormed away " The next day he came back with a bottle with bubbling and stinking liquid inside, the acid and threw it on my face and ran away I feel to the ground and screamed in the agonizing pain,then a guy named Lucas came and threw a bottle of water on my face saving my eyes, unfortunately my face didn't survive the trauma, even after a dozen surgeries to fix my face I still ended up with a distorted one." The man said abruptly " miss I don't know if u know me bit I am Jake the son of Lucas " Sam's eyes widened with shock, she said " oh my, what a coincidence it's so nice to meet you" The man said "would you care for some tea at my house?" Sam nodded after walking for a good 5 minutes they came to his house. Sam sat down on the chair, as Jake went to get some tea Sam picked up one of the photos and looked at it the more she stared at it the more she got nauseous she recognized that the woman hugging jake was his mother but she also recognized Jake's mother as her acid attackers daughter, Sam grabbed her gun and as Jake Came in front of her she shot him killing him on the spot after some seconds of silence she shot herself in the head and died
