A house build with lies and secrets. Living in hell for 14years. I never thought they will be able to that.
"Good morning mom." Saleem Charming voice cutoff my thoughts.
"Good morning king." I replied.
My son is depressed at 14. We tried everything but is not working for him. He is my happiness and I won't allow anything to touch him. I don't know what will happen the day he found out everything. I can't imagine his reaction but I know he will never find out.
"Mom, I am tired of getting bullied at school. I hate this life." He said.
"Don't say that again." I shouted.
"I went through hell for 14year baby. You are my only source of happiness. You are the reason for my patience." I said in my mind.
"Mom for the sake of Allah tell me who my father is." He said.
"You won't be able to accept it once I tell you saleem." I whispered in my mind.
"Don't start again." I said.
"Please mom." He pleaded.
"I don't want to talk about it. My heart hurts a lot. Do you want to see your mom in pain?" I asked
"No mom. I don't want it as long as it hurts you. You have been everything for me." He smiled at me.
"That's my son. Don't let anyone to bring you down." I hugged him.
...
I hate staying at this house because its burning me. I walked inside the living room and heard them arguing. I entered the room at the same time my so called brother shouted "leave this place, fatherless idiot." I frozed and was about to slap him. I remember he's the son of the two person I hate in my life.
"Don't you dare!" I said pointing at him.
Saleem run to his room and I followed him immediately.
"What happened?." I asked
"I mistakenly broke his ps5." He replied crying.
"Tell me everything." I said
He didn't tell me anything else. I wanted to know everything that boy called him.
I tried my best to comfort him knowing he can make any decision at any moment. He shows me that everything was clearly fine.
...
The so person I once called mom and dad left to a place. They went for and wedding event day after saleem had argument with Aliyu. They left him alone at home knowing I went for work. I hate living him alone because of destructive thoughts.
"Hey baby! Mommy is back." I said with a smile walking into saleem's room.
I regrets entering that room. Darkness overtakes me. "Hell no!." I closed my eyes hoping to wake up from this nightmare. I never wake up because its really.
I walk towards him hoping is not true. " Saleem!" I screamed shaking his body. "Get up please." I screamed but unfurnished my Saleem is late. He committed suicide.
