TALES OF AGONY

THE MURDERER

My hands were handcuffed while the two policemen were holding my shoulders.

They released me in public so they could take me to jail after I killed the whole family.

Many people are waiting for me, especially the reporters who are eager to know why I killed the Hernaez family.

"Edizhel why did you kill them?"

"What is your reason for killing them?"

"What pushed you to kill the whole family?"

"Why did you kill the famous family?"

Repeated questions from reporters while the microphones focused on me.

I just smiled at their questions when I remembered the night I killed them.

While I looked at myself in the mirror, hindi ko mapigilang maiyak.  I had a lot of bruises on my face because they beat me.

I also served them for three years at tatlong taon ko na din tinitiis ang kanilang pananakit sa'kin.

I tried several times to leave but they caught me and threatened to kill me if I ran away.

Many thought the Hernaez family was kind but they were wrong. The hernaez family is worse than the devil.

"Huy ikaw hampaslupa ka, kanina kapa jan ha!"

Napalundang ako ng marinig ko ang bulyaw ng anak nilang babae. Kaya agad akong lumabas.

Pero napahiyaw ako sa sakit ng agad niyang hinila ang aking mga buhok.

"Gutom na kami kaya paglutuan mo na kaming hayop ka!" sigaw niya sa aking habang nakadikit ang kanyang labi sa aking teynga.

"O-opo," sagot ko.

Habang pinaghahandaan ko sila ng pagkain naisipan kong lagyan ng pangpatulog ang kanilang kakainin.

Pagkatapos ko itong nilagyan agad kong inihatid sa kanila at mga ilang minuto sabay-sabay silang nawalan ng malay.

"Kung hindi ako makakaalis sa inyo, kayo na lang aalisin ko sa mundo," I whispered and I immediately tied them up.

Mga ilang oras na paghihintay ko nagising sila at agad kong kinuha ang kutsilyo.

I approached their daughter and pulled her hair.

"Fuck! What the hell are you doing!" she asked.

I smiled at her question and began to peel her head. Every time she shouted, I laughed.

"In the three years you have been pulling my hair this is how it feels so feel it!" I laughed.

I continued what I was doing until she lost her breath.

Next I aimed at his brother and I took the base bat.

"In the three years you hit me with a base bat, I will let you taste how painful it is," I uttered.

I started hitting him with the base bat. And even though the blood spilled on my clothes I still laughed until he lost his life.

I next targeted their mother and I took the hot water.

"In the three years you have been pouring coffee on me, you have felt how painful it is to pour hot water," I uttered.

I started pouring boiled water on her and when she screamed in pain I was even happier.

Until she lost her life.

The last one I targeted was their father. I immediately grabbed the knife and I stroked his lip.

"In three years of trampling and raping me, taste the wrath of a real demon," I uttered.

I started kicking him in the face until he bled and I took off his undergarment and I didn't hesitate to cut his penis.

Sa bawat paghiyaw niya sa sakit, para bang nakikinig ako ng musika na para lang sa aking mga teynga.

After I told reporters what I did, they were all silent and could hardly believe what they heard.

I smiled.

"Before becoming a demon, I tried to be an angel." I said and laughed.
