I ate my cereal slowly,the crunchyiness a happy feeling to a seven yearold.
I heard my mother scream,the sound rushing through the house to the kitchen.
ma? I looked out the window at where she stood in the yard,starring at the sky.
A seeming less wall of black fell from the sky,dots of green and white mixed with it.
I heard my father open his closet and reach for his rifle, yelling "I TOLD YOU THE KOREANS WERE COMING"
I heard thumps on the roof,my bowl of cereal dropping and I ducked under the table.
Father had always talked about this day,when the enemy would invade....
gunshots rang out and I saw my mother fall in the yard,her arms sprawled out and a pool of blood around her.
I took off,my tiny arms pumping as I ran to my mother
Ma! Ma! Ma!
her blood coated hand touched my face and pointed towards the woods.
Run,luke... run...
That was the day it all changed
