Knitting Needles handn't been invented? If only I had gone to school that day what might have happened? Maybe my mother would have died and my life would be very different, maybe she still would have survived and I would never have known about all the lost babies. From that one single day my head was full of "what ifs. I managed for many years to push it to the back of mind, but just closing my eyes I can transport myself back in time.

Threats of violence simmered in the air that morning. I walked over to the security guard and warned him to be extra alert. He shrugged it off as he always did, under my breath I muttered 'useless prick'. So I wasn't surprised when the chair went flying, one woman down on the ground already, spitting and cussing, arms flailing, going first for the hair and then for the eyes. Women are the worst; they draw blood in seconds, fight real dirty and draw shrieks of encouragement from the men.
