One day a girl, Niyati, who was fifteen years old, came home from school in a very bad mood.
 She'd had a fight with her best friend that day and it hadn't turned out well at all.
"NIyati!" her mom yelled. "What are you doing? You know to do your chores right when you get home! And you're late!"
"Coming, Mom!" Niyati yelled, getting up and stomping towards the kitchen. "What?" she snapped as her mother gave her a stern look, annoyed.
"You'd better straighten up your attitude, young lady," her mom warned, "or you'll be grounded."
"Whatever." Niyati began to throw around the dishes in the sink, trying to make as much noise as she possibly could. 
A plate cracked and cut her hand. Niyati cursed.
"Niyati" her mom exclaimed. "How dare you use that language! Go to your room!"
"No!" Niyati yelled, throwing down the towel she was using to wipe the blood off her hand.
"Do you want to say 'no' one more time and see what happens?" her mom asked. She looked furious.
"Sure," Niyati said sarcastically. "No."
"How dare you!" Her mother slapped her.
Niyati shrank back, staring incredulously at her mom. She had never hit Niyati before.
"I HATE YOU!" Niyati screamed before running out of the house.
"Niyati, get back here!" her mom yelled, running after her.
"Leave me alone!" Niyati screamed, running across the street. "I HATE YOU!" she screamed again.
She continued running until she heard the sound of screeching tires and a scream. 
She turned around, hoping that it wouldn't be what she thought it would be....
People were crowding around Niyati's mother, who was laying in the middle of the street, looking broken, bl**dy.
"NOOOO!" Niyati screamed, running over and pushing through everyone to kneel by her mom. "Oh no, oh no...."
Her mom wasn't moving or breathing. She was gone. Niyati tipped back her head and wailed to the sky, sobbing so hard it hurt.
She couldn't believe the last words she had spoken to her mother were "I hate you".
 
To everyone out there who tells your parents or friends you hate them, or any other rude thing, remember it might be the last thing you ever say to them.
