Percy POV
Me and Zoe were headed to the trampoline park to celebrate her birthday. As we passed by a church, an old lady came out and starts screaming at us.
"Get inside church, right now!" She told me.
"Um... no." I replied.
"Think about what the lord would think!" She said.
"I don't really care." I said, which elicited a gasp from the woman.
"Look at the negative influence your having on your child. Little one, come with me. I'll teach you about the lord." The woman said, grabbing Zoe's arm.
"No!" Zoe tried to pull free.
BANG! THUD!
As the woman fell, I felt my fist bleeding.
"We aren't of your religion. Respect that." I said. I looked at Zoe and saw her arm was bleeding. The woman's nails had broken flesh. Anger filled my soul.
"Dad, let's go." Zoe said. I nodded. As we walked away, the woman said she'd call the police.
"You do that. We'll deal with you AFTER we have a fun time. Come on Zoe, let's get to the trampoline park."
As we walked away, I caught Zoe doing a rude gesture to the woman.
"Zoe!"
