Grandmother Shot Dead

Hello Pandomodium

Here again telling you a story about my childhood life. Many years ago i lost my dear old grandmother in a family business my uncle owned at the time. My grandma was everything to me under the sun.

I can remember seeing my granny walking across the street coming home from work. Me and my cousins would be over my great grandmothers house waiting for Granny to bring us something nice from work.

She sometimes brought us candy or chips to eat. We just love to get these special gifts from granny. But one day back many years ago granny did not come home this one January night .

I can remember this cold black night like it was yesterday. My mother had been at work most of the day and i do remember that granny called our house looking for mother to speak with on the phone.

Mother was not home from work yet i told my granny i will tell her that she called. We then went on to talk about what i wanted for my birthday this year. My birthday was only a few weeks away and granny wanted to go a head and pick up my present early .

I told my granny i wanted a radio and a box of chocolate candy for my birthday gift this year. She said ok sweetie granny will get that for her baby. I said thank you granny and i love you too. I said good bye to granny that afternoon.

Little did i know that would be the last time i ever hear my grandmother voice again. I waited for my mother to come home to let her know granny had called and wanted her to call when she came in from work. My mother went to the phone called my granny on the phone around 7:00 pm . Mother talk to granny for a while that night on the phone. My granny told my mother she had to go because some customers had came into the business .

Mother hung up the phone and she went to the restroom to take a hot shower and get ready for bed that night. Me and my brother were up watching Boston Stranger on the movie of the week i believe it was called back then.

A few hours had past and we just sat in the living room watching late Night TV. Just when the phone rings on the Boston Stranger the phone rings inside our kitchen area. That really scared the crap out of me and my brother that night.

I remember the screams that came from the back bedroom area of our house. My mother was screaming at the top of her lungs and her words were no no no no over and over again. We did not know what to think at this point at all.

Then out of the blue my mother comes running through the house screaming in the front living room area get dress get your clothes on now. We have to go to Long Beach . Now we still don't know what is going on at all in the house. Me and my brother get dress and sat on the sofa waiting for mother to come back out of the room.

When she came out i seen puffy eyes and tears running down her face. We wanted to ask her what is wrong mother but was too scared to ask at that time. So on the car ride down we started to put things together when listening to bits of a conversation she was having with the demon in the car. It sounds like something is wrong with Granny but what is wrong with granny.

I became very scared at this point granny was hurt bad i did know that. But being young and all i did not know how hurt granny was. But then i heard mother say out loud my mother is dead now . The demon said we dont know that right now so just wait until we get down that way.

My mother started crying again and the demon told her to stop before it upset the kids. But little did he know we were already upset after hearing what mother had said a few minutes earlier.

When we arrived at my great grandmothers home. I jump out of the car and ran to the door fast. When i saw my auntie and my great grandma just sitting there in there chairs crying i knew something was very wrong in this house tonight. My great grandmother ask me to come over to her and she said to me that my other granny was gone home with God. I said know she is not gone home with God i just talk to her today.

I pulled away and ran into my grandmother room. I look in there and she was not there at all. Where is she i went out to ask my auntie . She told me at the hospital i said i needed to go see her now at the hospital . They told me she was gone away with God once more.

But being a child you always think if they see your face that she will come back home again. My mother went to the hospital with the demon i beg her to go along. She said know you have to stay here with the family members until i get back .

I said ok but bring granny back with you ok. She said i can't do that sweetie granny is gone away. I said good bye to mother and went to the window in the front of the house where we use to sit and wait for granny when she came home from work. I sat there until my cousin came over a few hours later with her mother.

She was so upset also and we as children did not know what to do about granny not coming back home. So we went into grandmother's room and prayed that God will let her come back home again. Little did we know that granny was shot in heart and would not be coming back to this earth again .

As time pass by we just waited and waited for some kind of news from anyone that had went to the hospital to see granny. Well as you can figure she was in fact dead, and had been shot buy dirty low down gangsters with no sense in there brain but to shoot an elderly women in her 60"s down in cold blood at a family business.

This was hard on my mother and me for many years to come. My grandmother was my everything. But now she was gone to be with God in heaven. My family after that bad shooting just went totally down in the dumps and most of us just really grew apart . It reminds this way in 2009. My grandmother had the strength of many women to hold family members together but when she died . The truth of the family members really came out.

I live my life by god rules still, and i do keep clear from most of the family members i do have left. Most are evil and have hateful jealous ways.

This story was about my Grandmother Mrs. Alberta Jackson who died in a family record store business back many years ago in the City and State of  Long Beach California.

A 15 year old' stole my Grandmother life away from her, and is walking free or who knows maybe dead by now. But this dirty low down no good person does not deserve to live on God's earth for this crime he did to my granny. Her life was worth a whole lot more than $75.00 priceless to all her family members.
