Sky Full of Stars

It tearing me apart

Mom? Is there something wrong?

Rudy honey you're awake. Mom wipes her hand in her apron and holds my cheeks and staring for a moment. She looks in my eyes. She stands as if she's have a runny nose.

Mom? I called.

Honey, go back to sleep. I'll catch up after this chores.

I don't want to ask questions more so, I do what my mom tells me.

Momma's thought

My son Rudy saw me cried, I don't want him to see me like this. I know it's hard but there's nothing we can do with my husband to fix then. I know my husband hiding something from me. I saw the documents under his table in our room. He left it unlocked. He gumbled our properties been left. Every night he's drunk and the the most terrifying is that, How can we afford such thing as this big house without a single money left in our house? Then I found lately, He's into something, DRUGS. I know there's something wrong, he keep changing bit by bit. I don't want to tell this to my children, Wil and Rudy. He hurts me also, I hid it with the apron I got and untie my hair because of the bruise on my neck. Neighbors telling me to snuck out of the house, one of them is my neighbor Clyde, that also I fell in love with because he cares about me and my children. When my husband saw me with him having an affair. He killed Clyde that the next morning, Clyde declared went to a trip and never came back. But, Clyde is under the table inside our house lying dead. It hurts me like I'm going to explode. I can't keep it in secret no more. I must do something before my children get hurt.

Daddy's thought

I heard my wife cried. What can I do to fix problems in this house? Is she not happy that I'm giving all the needs they need. Then, I found out that she's having an affair. Oh come on! She's cheating that's why I'm hurting her. It's her fault anyway. Mercy is not enough to her. So I killed Clyde, our neighbor,my wife's man..
I know she's planning to escape me again but that could never happen.
I observe her doings afar.
I went to the bathroom and peeks what she'll going to do.

Rudy, Wil stand up darling. Well going to see your aunt right now!

My eyes isn't still open yet dreaming how happy our family is.

My mom lift Wil and me holding her hand.

Daddy's thought

I knew it! I saw her, clinging Wil and holding Rudy. She's going to leave with the children. I'm so pissed and anger so I get my pistol hidden in the wall blocks. I loaded three bullets enough of them three. It's unforgivable. After all this time looking for money for them and they will leave me!

Daddy's standing in front of the door and my mom so stun.

Daddy's holding something on his back. Mom runs with Wil while holding me.

My father expression is mad. A mad person.

Is there something wrong with papa? I said to Mom

Keep away in your dad. Don't make him finds you okay. Stay here! Wil and I will go this way. I'll be back and try to call for some help. I couldn't bring you two.

So then I nod, but when Mom stands,
BANNGGG!!!!!

I saw her lying on the floor looking at my direction. My brother Wil is crying. But dad, put his gun at the head of my brother and fires. O saw all of it. My father is a murderer.

The blood came from my brother and mother rushing on the floor and going at my direction.

I know Rudy you're still here! Come on son! This is just short feeling of pain! You'll get better soon.

Outside our home I can hear a siren of a police car and orange light I'm the window.

Police!

I tried my best to hide. My father's footsteps I couldn't hear it. I run in front of the door puts the shoes before leaving inside the house where police are there. When I see them, I heard a 3 gun's sound.

People astounds as they see me. I'm happy to see them.

Then, pain dwells in my body. When I look at my hand, It covers with blood and a bullet..

My father is behind that gave a gunshot in my heart. And the 2 bullets that coming from the police directs to my father.

Before my eyes closed, I saw father tears in his eyes and the heaven where stars shines above.
