It was October, like on all Saturdays I woke up and stepped into the living room , I turned on the TV, and snuggled into the couch. I was currently 9 I was still very young and didn't know about the corruption that the world contains. As I reached for the remote, sloppy footsteps were heard outside, slowly followed by jingling keys.
Knowing that if my parents found out I was awake, they would get mad I hid behind the couch. The door slowly opened and I peeked behind the couch. " I'm home!!" My father drunkily screamed. My mom rushed down the stairs in mad rage, " where have you been?!" She said sternly. "You smell terrible, did you leave any soju for the rest of Korea?" My mother said sarcastically. " why did I ever marry you I don't -don't -don't understand?!" My father slurred. My mother looked at my father with a blank stare. " that's why I found myself a new wife, way better than you! She is WAY better if you know what I mean.." My father blurted out.
My mother was mad but she didn't expect that response from my father. " Lee, you have been cheating on me?" My mother said with tears in her eyes. " ohhh please! You knew don't try that pouty face on me! What was I supposed to do, I got bored of you. Our marriage was over and you knew it!! I only wanted you for your money!!" My father said as he fell back on the couch. I winced in fright but stay perfectly still.
" how could you!! how could you!!" My mother screamed. My father was tired and drunk, he could not stand my mother any longer. My father leaned in and slapped my mother across the face making her fall back. " you are going to respect me you understand B*ITCH!" My father said standing up. My mother was no match for my father, she sat very still as my father continued to scream insults over her. I put my hands over my ears and tried to muffle out the screams that slowly degraded my mother. I rocked my body back and forth, and tears slowly fell from my eyes. My father slammed the door and my mother was left on the floor terrified. After a while, I opened my eyes and put my hands down. The screams were replaced by muffled cries. I looked on the other side of the couch and saw my mothers body lying limply on the carpet. I rolled myself into a ball and slowly fell asleep
