Everything is a lie

It is him. And he will always ruin my life no matter what it is.

But in this case, he has a huge involvement. In our previous life, he shot them, but I can't remember why. But right now is different. He has an involvement with her family's case.

Now how can I face her now?

Ironic thing here is that, if I compare him in both lives, I can guarantee that he's much worse in the present. No wonder why my mother ended up leaving their family house. I know I need to find out more aside from him, but something doesn't fit right on why she simply left their home.

Grabbing my keys, I decided to go to my mother's place. For this lifetime, we need to stop him. And forever.

"Finally you've decided to visit me!! I miss-"

"Mom, I need to talk to you-"

"Of course young man, we need to talk on why you won't give updates to Erwin-"

"Can you let me talk first? This is urgent um mom. Please I need this for a case-"

"Here you go again with cases. Why are you so engrossed with them? They're just people's problems not yours."

What did she said?

"Mom, I don't want to be rude, but you are wrong."

I can see my mother giving me a shocked face, probably still denying that I contradicted her on the spot.

"Mom, in our society, not everyone has the voice or the power to stand out for the truth. I chose this career because I want to amplify them, to help them solve things that affected them—no, the rest of their lives. Everyone deserves fair judgement and treatment, nothing else."

"Then fine what do you want?!"

"I want to know more who on earth is Kenny Ackerman, or for worse, what's with the Ackerman's." I paused then decided to go on, "Please be honest with me. I just wanted to be true to someone that is involved in a case."

My mother looked at me with a disgusted look on her face, and replied back, "Why do you need to know about the Ackerman's? And who the hell is that someone? Why do you give importance to that someone aside from your mother?"

Never in my life I saw her in this state. And now I realized, everything is a lie.

"Fine, you want to know why? I love her mom, I LOVE HER-"

"Wow, who's that whore that ruined my son's mind-"

"WILL YOU PLEASE SHUT UP! SHE'S NOT A WHORE! SHE'S IMPORTANT TO ME BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T HAVE A FACADE UNLIKE YOU." I tried to calm myself down, realizing that she's still my mother. "She doesn't deserve injustice about her parents, she needs to know the truth." I added as I glanced at the floor.

With the way she was acting, it is positive that the Ackerman's were hiding something. And I'm ready to face it.

"I-I can't."

"What do you mean you can't?"

"I can't. They would hate me more. Not just Kenny, but all of them!"
