Jr killed a Cat!

I was walking home through the park when Junior, Geraldine's son approached me. He is always looking for attention because his mother only has love for the house cat. His mother only allowed him to hang out with the "upper class people" so I was already probably not supposed to be there, but Junior lured me into the house to see some kittens. When we go in he throws his cat at me, and I wanted to leave, but he locks me in. I was almost about to cry and I was scared until the cat rubbed up against me. I pet him and began to smile. When Junior saw this he swung the cat, and I tried to save him, but he hit the heater and died. His mother came in and yelled at me. She called me a "nasty little black bitch". Worst day ever.
