CHAPTER SIXTY-SEVEN

I still had Alex heavy on my mind. The way his body fell when I shot him. I saw the life go right out of him. I’ve never seen anything like that before. It wasn’t amazing or glamorous. It was horrible. Blood and guts flew out of the back of his head, and his body hit the ground so hard. I couldn’t believe how quick and sudden it was. One second passed and Alex was gone. Did he even know he was dead? Can he tell the difference between his life on this earth and the moment of his death?

I was so much into my thoughts and stressing that I didn’t know where Tanie was driving. We arrived at a parking lot that had tons of cars and people walking with their kids. When she parked the car, I didn’t move right away. I was still daydreaming.

“We’re here.” Tanie said with excitement.

“Where is here?” I asked.

“We are at the zoo.”

What in the world was she thinking? I didn’t want to go to the zoo.

“Have you ever seen a gorilla?”

I asked, “Why would I want to see a monkey?”

“There is a difference between a monkey and a gorilla, Angela.” Tanie said smartly. “Come on lets go make a day of this. It’ll be fun.”

“I can tell you’ve been here before. You like coming here?”

“We’ll get some fresh air, watch the animals, and watch the kiddies. It’s better than sitting in the hotel room all day.”

We went into the zoo, and I was really impressed. I’ve never seen or heard of some of the animals before. I saw a lemur, and it had a black and white coat. It reminded me of a skunk. The kangaroo looked really weird. How an animal can jump around on legs like that is beyond my understanding. I saw a duiker. Who ever thought of a name like that for an animal? They looked like deer. Some had spikey horns coming out of their heads, and others didn’t have any. There were two or three different kinds of monkeys in different caged environments, and their eyes were huge, like they could see everything. I even saw a gorilla. The thing is incredibly big. It’s amazing. The other animals were cool looking, and I began to appreciate the place more.

I envied the people that had the chance to take care of them. I can’t imagine the knowledge it would take to know what to feed them, how to care for the animals, and how to create the right living environment. Then I was impressed with Tanie. I would never picture her going to a zoo and actually appreciating a place like this, but it shows how little I knew about her.

We enjoyed watching other people at the zoo, too. There were people wearing silly hats that had horns or silly looking decorations or cartoon animals. Kids were running around, some as fast as they could with balloons trailing behind them. Baby strollers and babies on colorful leashes were all over.
