I failed the test and came home from school while I was in 4th grade. I hesitated first.
Then I saw you in the kitchen cooking for us.
(I really like your cooking)
I took short steps to the kitchen and handed over the test paper to you. To which you frowned at and then gritted your teeth.
At the moment, there was ladle in your hand stainless steel (made in china) you just raised it and hit me with it not just once but you did keep hitting me I was a crying mess than you were finished with your fury and I ran to the storeroom. I kept crying there for four hours.

I had the feeling that I really disappointed you and failed you which is by the way a fact.
But that was not the moment I wanted to die. I just felt sorry cuz I love you the most and being my most important person I can't do any good to you. Once again I am sorry:-(
