I'm not great with chapter titles (this is my first story)

John was filled with happiness as he saw his cousin on the floor. But he was also filled with regret. He howled out as tears ran down his cheeks, but he soon abrupted into a insane laugh. 

He fell to his knees as he touched his warm cheeks, his shoulders shook as he continued to laugh. But as soon as he touched his cousins cheek, more tears ran down his face. He then understood.

He killed her.

Imelda was in too much shock to even move or scream, she couldn't believe what she just witnessed.Her son. John had just killed his cousin Rosa. Imelda fell to her knees and cried in her hands.

A nearby neighbor had heard the gunshot and called the police.

Hector and the others were confused as they saw the police stop in front of the house, they also heard a gunshot and went outside, Hector went inside and saw his wife  walking down the stairs.

Imelda struck up at the house with tears pouring down her face. They all ask whats wrong as she sits at the couch. Rosa's corpse still crisp and fresh on her mind. Then she explains that John had tried to kill her but killed Rosa instead. They had tears streaming down their faces as they shot up and got out the house. 

They had horrified faces as they saw Rosa in a stretcher, they cried and hugged eachother by sorrow. Rosa's parents were walking next to the strecher. Tears trickling down their faces. Their chest tightened as soon as the paramedics hoisted the stretcher in the medical van.

They saw John in the back of a police car,Johns whole family stared at him in fear. Hector glanced around the family but his eyes landed on John. Hector didnt know what to think. Miguel always got afraid when John would only smile towards him, to Miguel it looked sinister. 

Abuelita sat in silence, her hands cupped in her lap as she stared at John. She was afraid and angry. She wanted to tell him off, but knew it would only make the situation worse. Victoria hugged her husband, which was Johns uncle, who was a police man. She was afraid of John, she never knew why he killed Rosa. So she was very confused and scared. John only smiled creepily at his family as they stared at him. All in silence, they stared.

Then news reporters came, they began filming the area, the reporters tried to ask Imelda and the Riveras what happened at house,but they all refused to do a interview with them,Charles then spoke with the new's reporters.

"My nephew , killed his cousin Rosa." Charles said solemnly.

"Why did he do it? " a male reporter asked Charles.

"John was trying to kill his mother, but Rosa interfered and she tried to pull the gun away from John, but when the two were fighting over the  gun, John pulled the trigger by accident and shot Rosa in the head." Charles said with sadness in his voice.

Soon after, in the news it showed John being taken to a sanatorium, as he was still young and thus he couldn't be sent to prison, The sanatorium is located north, outside of Santa Cecilia (it takes about 3 hours to get there).

John was put in a cell and he just kept,staring at the wall,John kept thinking about how he killed Rosa,he was happy to have killed her,but he really wanted to have killed his mother,now he is locked up because he killed his own cousin,John now knows he will never get the chance to kill his mother and he might never get to see his little brother again.

John cried himself to sleep, and he kept thinking about his brother,until he fell asleep.

the next day, John was taken out of his cell and was taken to a white room, the guards put him on a chair and right across the table sat Dr.Nelson and Dr. Kelley.

"Hi,John. You may not know us, but we know your parents, we were called by the principal from your school and your parent's told us about your antisocial behavior." Dr.Nelson said.

"We were later called by your mother, she told us you tried to kill her with a gun and but ended up killing your cousin Rosa instead,now tell us John, why did you try to kill your own mother? " Dr.Kelley asked as she got out a notepad and pencil.

John just glared at them,and he continued to stare at them for while, then he spoke.

"My Mom is the reason i've always been unhappy, she never lets me play music as she promised her grandfather to ban music." John said with no emotion in his voice.

"We were told by your mother that you had liked harming small animals to take out your anger." Dr.Nelson said.

John did not say anything,he just smiled creeply.

"Now,John, answer my question, why did you try to kill your mother?" Dr.Kelley asked.

John's face twitched in anger at the mention of his mom.

"She..smashed my guitar." John said with anger in his voice.

The two doctors now understood that all John wanted was to play and listen to music, Dr.Nelson believed this to be the reason John had anger issues and why he was anti social.

Dr.Nelson looked on his watch and knew it was time to put John back in his cell.

The guards came in and grabbed John ,they took him to his cell, John walked towards his bed and he saw a guitar lying on the desk.

John walked to the desk and grabbed the guitar, he saw a note attached , he picked it up and read it.

From Dr.Nelson and Dr.Kelley.

Enjoy your new Guitar, John.

After reading it, John smiled softly for a second,but his smile faded and his expression became blank.

John grabbed the guitar and went to his bed,he started strumming the guitar and he smiled.

Meanwhile with the Riveras...

The Family were all in the living room waiting for Charles to come back and tell them where John is.

Imelda was still shaken after seeing her own son kill his cousin,Hector sat right beside her and was holding her hand,Miguel was sitting on her lap.

"Mama,where did the police take my brother?" Miguel asked with tears in his eyes.

"we still don't know mijo,we're all waiting for your uncle Charles to come home  and tell us if he find out where your brother is." Imelda said with sadness in her voice.

5 minutes later, Charles came in the front door and everyone stood up .

"Charles,Did you find out,where they took John?" Hector asked.

Charles sighed.

"John is in the sanatorium, that is outside Santa Cecilia, i was told by the police that the psychiatrist's that Imelda and Hector met at John's school will care for him." Charles said.

Everyone had a sad look on their faces,they were happy John was not sent to prison,but they know that the sanatorium where John is,is outside Santa Cecillia and it takes 3 hours to get there.

Imelda then spoke.

"i think we'll all have to visit John once a month." Imelda said.

Miguel looked at his mother.

"Mama,but can't we go see him now?" Miguel asked as he really wanted to see his brother.

Imelda looked at her son, with a sad expression.

"i'm sorry Miguel, we can't visit your brother now,but i promise you that next month,we'll go see him." Imelda said.

Miguel nodded his head in sadness.

Imelda then took Miguel to his room and all the family went to sleep.

Months passed and as Imelda promised, the family visted John once a month, Dr.Nelson and Dr.Kelley tried to get John to talk to his family, but he refused to,he only spoke to his brother.

Imelda sat in the chair across from him, along with his family. But John only smiled towards Miguel as they visted. Imelda was struck by a pain of sorrow as she was ignored by her son. 

She tried to speak but was only stopped by Johns glare, he continued to talk to his brother with a smile on his face. But it soon had to end when the security guards came in. John softly smiled at Miguel, but glared at the rest of his family when he was escorted away.

Imelda and the family left the building, Imelda was sad that her own son did not love her anymore, and she knew it was her fault,if she hadn't smashed his guitar, John wouldn't  have been sent to the Sanatorium and Rosa would still be alive.

"Mom, why didn't my brother talk to any of you?" Miguel asked.

Imelda smiled sadly.

"Your brother is still angry at your mom, but don't worry Miguel, Dr.Nelson said that he and Dr.Kelley will do everything they can to help your brother." Hector said to Miguel.

Imelda turned her head around to look at the Sanatorium one last time, before leaving.

Sorry if my writing sucks,like i said this is my first story.
