forsaken innocence

Walking down the row of accusing faces was the worst feeling in the world. they knew i did it and they all hated me for it. but they don't know anything,how could the story as to why. but i have to tell the story to someone,that's why I'm telling you.
i woke up to the sound of my obnoxious alarm clock, feeling more tired than usual.yesterday was a long day,i was accused for my mothers murder,of corse i was guilty, but no one had to know that.so i was proved innocent at the trial.as i walked down the steps, my grandmother told me, in the most demanding voice, to clean the dishes and make her bed.shes always bitching.if this was a normal situation i wouldn't listen, but i have to, because shes the only one who knows my secret.what really happened I'm afraid if i don't do whatever she said shed turn me in.so i listened.
i got to the bus stop, these two girls Kelsy and Sarah were whispering,looking towards me every couple of seconds. i knew they were talking about me. i looked away, i got angry, my ears turned red and hot, i wanted to say something but i kept quiet because the slightest move, one wrong word, would put me behind bars. i hated this, i just wanted to move,start clean .. but i couldn't turn back now.
science class,my last period.Mr wather thinks hes funny, he cracked a joke about my dead mother .. and that's where i lost it. i got up and threw the desk away from me, i pointed my finger at him "if you ever talk about her again like that,ill kill you,don't think you'll be the first!" i looked back, 5 rows of shocked faces looked at me , staring blankly,jaws open, wide eyes.. then i realized what i just said.i ran out of the classroom and out of the school, i ran home. i felt like i was going crazy, i needed to calm down, but i couldn't. i walked into the door and slammed it shut, my grandmother was screaming at me.. about god knows what,my blood was rushing with adrenalin,yet i felt in a trance.my grandmother wouldn't shut up. so i shut her up myself. i grabbed a loose piece of wood from the frame of her bedroom door and beat her with it, until she gasped her last breath.when i was done, not a spot on the bed was its original color,it was now all red.still in my trance i walked outside and laid across the lawn. my over-sized grey sweatpants, covered in blood, along with my shirt.and before i knew it the cops were here. before i knew it, my life was over.

    I love the idea, but it did feel rushed. I have the same problem, what i do is take one line at a time even if i have say the entire end done and want to rush to get there. I really like the last line.

    I like you idea for this and it was very nicely put, if a little fast paced. I feel it could do with being slowed down a bit.

    I liked it very much. the ending is amazing when you say "before I knew it my life was over." It leaves the reader wanting more. It is a very good story! Thank you for entering my contest and GOOD LUCK!

    Okay, I'm not going to patronize you. I'm going to tell it like it is. Although, the idea of the story is spectacular, it doesn't really flow and the storyline is a bit hard to believe.
    Ex: Science class, my last period. Mr. Wather thinks he's funny, he cracked a joke about my dead mother...And that's where I lost it."
    Okay, why would the teacher crack a joke about the death of someone's mother--That's not realistic in most circumstances--Plus, why would the girl in this story become offended when she's the one who killed her own mother in the first place?!
    But, anyway, I get the idea of the story. The idea of it is good, but you need to work on your grammer and the flow of your story, and maybe making it more realistic. This is just a critique to improve your writing skills--Please don't take it harshly. Hope to read more from you!=)
