"Ziggy, don't use that against me!" I cried. Squid was slowly making his way towards Peanut.
The other boys were either standing, shovel in hand, or sitting on the edge of their holes, enjoying the drama.
"Don't believe him! He's a crazy psycho! Has he ever told you about before you came?" Cig protested.
I looked over at her and back at Zigzag.
"DON'T CALL ME THAT!" ZigZag yelled at her. "SHUT UP!" Peanut yelled. Squid was telling her something quietly. I turned to face her, not noticing ZigZag was coming closer to me.
"I'm sorry. That's the truth. I didn't do anything! That's the only wrong i did!" Squid begged.
"Alan.. just stop..please.." Peanut started to cry. I turned back to ZigZag who was now only two feet away.
"Ziggy, just stop." I said calmly. He came forward again. "I'm serious." I could feel the anger rising,
along with a panicky feeling I didn't like.
."Sammi, I'm sorry just let me explain?" He said, coming another step forward.Now I was fighting the urge to hurt him. I was near tears now.
"ZIGZAG STOP! I DON'T WANT TO HURT YOU!" I cried. He stopped. "Yo Zig, just go back to your hole man." Armpit warned. The tears flowed down my cheeks freely. Peanut was hugging Squid behind me. "I know you wouldn't do anything like that." I finally said after a deadly silence. I felt so angry,so fruserated.
I still wasn't sure if I'd hurt him or not.
"Sammi.." He said taking another step.
"Goddammit!" I screamed before falling to my knees. ZigZag went to move closer to me. "just because i'm on my knees doesnt mean i wont kill you." I growled. The water truck rumbled down the dusty road. The boys got back to digging and so did peanut. I went to my hole and sat in it. Slowly I began to space out..
