A Cry For Help...

Jumping off the ledge into a lake , Damon hit  his head on the back of a tree stump while blood filled the surrounding area where he landed like a rock. Jasmin seeing  him floating face down  screamed out for help. She never learn how to swim for this was the day she regretted  for the rest of her life.

By the time the paramedic arrived  Damon was pronounced dead. They were only 19 years old and twins. Jasmin didn't know how to tell her mother about why they was at  the lake  after being instructed by her mother Jewel not to go. She approached her mother in the living room, crying. She said " Damon fell into the lake and I couldn't save him ". Jasmine was still  in a state of shock . Jewel looked at though she could kill and asked " who fell in the lake ?" she replied "Damon has drowned .

Suddenly ,Jewel heart pounded and tears streamed down her face,  her son has died and know one was there to help him. Yelling out to Jasmin she  asked   " What exactly happen ?, tell me now! ". That was when a knock was  heard  at the door . It was the Denvor County Police coming by to take her to the morgue to identify her son.


Falling to the floor and screaming aloud, the police rushed to assist her. ''Please madam  we need your help in identifying the young man we found in the lake. Are you okay?'' he asked.Using foul language  she looked over to her daughter and said " Where is my son ?''. Jasmin ran out of the house for she felt it was her fault for disobeying her mother's rules ,and not being able to save her twin brother .


 She went to her grandmother's house for refuge while her mother went to the morgue. Looking at  her son's lifeless body  stretched out on that long steel table she sobbed uncontrollably , reaching out to touch his beautiful face for the last time. "How could this have happened? ''. she said . ''My only son , my beautiful boy I carried for nine months.  She asked the police officer what had happen. They said  " It appeared he broke his neck and damaged his skull from the fall off the cliff into the lake.


But know one suspected that his twin sister had pushed him over the cliff . She felt that he was loved  and favored by most people. That she couldn't do nothing right and was always ridiculed.
Damon was loved by all , he was very well spoken and out going. Know one made fun of him as they did to Jasmin. She planned to get rid of her brother to become her mother's only favorite child . I can have everything she thought, if he is out of the picture.


Her  grandmother knew that she had despised her brother and said " What happen to Damon  because they were both inseparable?'' .She hesitated and  asked  " Do you love me grandmother ?''  as she contemplated killing her grandmother too.  Stepping back away from her granddaughter . Grandmother Carol had become afraid. She knew that Jasmin was a wicked child and could do anything when she doesn't  get her way. As Jasmin started to approach her grandmother , an  older boy in his 20s came down the  stairs as she paused, with eyes glared on him, she had never seen him before. Carol gestured to the young man to come stand by her side , He said  " Who is this young lady grandma"? Jasmin replied "Grandma."


Breaking out in a deep sweat and heart racing furiously she ran up to him and  looked him up and down and asked  " Who are you ? ''. The room stood silent,  That's when Raymond  grabbed  Jasmin by the throat and slung her down to the floor. He then stomp her in the chest and face as though she had killed his only best friend in life. Carol pulled him away from her and said  " Stop this at once this is your sister. That is when he pulled the knife from underneath him jacket and cut at his grandmother throat.


Falling to the floor in fear, Grandma Carol grabbed her chest from pain she suddenly felt.  Jasmin walked over to her and said  " This is what you deserve, keeping little known secrets . Why did you allow me to sleep with my older brother.  I'm carrying his seed now and my twin brother is dead.  All of you deserve to die .  That's when her mother Jewel walked into the house with Damon and found Jasmin  in a state of rage ,cutting herself with a knife and pulling her hair, foaming  from  the mouth like a mad dog. She had started hallucinating from the newly prescribed medication called ( Zyprexa). A history of violence,and schizophrenia runs in our family Jewel stated to Damon.
