I woke up to a sound of a little boy sobbing , directly got up , went out of the door to see my mom hugging my brother who actually was the one crying ,

"-dad's not coming home- he went with a g-g-gir--" he was crying hysterically , as if he was struggling in swallowing a whole apple , he turned to me and went quickly to hug me , he was crying so hard

I just woke up! What kind of thing is he even saying! I'm not even concious yet!

"H-he is! Michael he is!" My mom looked nervous , scared , her tone of voice said something her inner side didn't believe , said something as if her brain was forced   to command her tongue to say what she said  , yes , she was lying , i always knew when she did

I was expecting such a thing to happen! I was expecting dad to leave us

"Michael , take a breath , Michael , look at me " I cupped micheals face and wiped  his tears "yes , you're right , dad left us , so what? Are we gonna die now?" He shook his head confused "b-but"

"shh , crying and nagging is useless now okay? Let's just go sleep now , and we'll worry about that later go lay down in bed , i'm going to buy you a new video game if you go to bed"

I  knew he won't stop crying! He's a child! How in hell would he stop crying when he finds out his daddy isn't coming back to hold him up between his shoulders! To find out that the closest human being is just lost now!

Not dead! Just left! Like that...

After minutes of trying to convince mike to sleep i went to my mom privately "Mom, what is all this about! Is he really going to leave with that Linda? " I said it grinding my teeth trying to hold my anger

"Oh Joanna dont act like you dont know!" Mom replied holding a tear in her eye

"this is not the time of this , how did Mike know?" I said curiously wishing she didn't really tell him

"Did u really tell him?" I asked

"well at least i didnt tell him that 'its fine and that we wont die if such a thing happens' , though , you do know we might be broke and stay homeless!  " she said wiping off her tear and mocking of how i reacted to Mike.

Yes , i confess , my reaction while i was UNCONSCIOUS was a bit weird , stupid maybe , but it was all what I could do to convince him because I had to see what is really happening to the world while i was trying to get couple hours of peaceful sleep.

I rolled my eyes , "he's not answering your calls is he?" I grabbed my phone to suddenly see on my screen a message

"i'm sorry , but i need to fulfill my needs now , i have done everything i can to you, your brother , and your mom, it is my turn now, goodbye."

Wow! Didnt even care to say love or dear or my son instead of ur brother , and it surprised me how he showed his second face , his mysterious , unforgettable , shocking second face

he revealed it so sudden , just like when the beast revealed his face to belle , and i was just like belle's reaction except for i didnt accept it like belle did , because the beast didnt want to become a beast ...

my dad? He was planning to become worse than a beast.

since I knew my dad's affair , I wasn't that close to him , I never was anyway , yeah , he did give what we needed in this world , diapers , milk , clothes , shelter , but forgot to give us the most important thing , his kindness , or what do they call it , his fatherhood? 

why would he give it all to his son! When at the end he knew he will leave to fulfill his needs , Mike  was always close to his dad , HIS dad,-now that he didn't care about me as his daughter- .... and  he was always kind to him , maybe because he was his only son, maybe because  he was his boy

at least he would leave giving us what we need for later , but no , he never cared , he never cared to give it to us ..

"JOEEE" i suddenly woke up from my thoughts "what now " my mom said sobbing "what do i do now! , you , your brother , he didnt even give us money!!"

She put her hands on her forehead  cursing  him , praying that he feels what he made us feel , when suddenly all she could say was

"how can u not worry! Not even a tear is shown in your face! How feelingless can u get! "

her words crushed as if water was put on fire..

and I was the fire ..

as if every single rock in the world is thrown at me!

She was just getting rid of her furious emotions on me , making me miserable instead , she always did this , because , hell yeah , even parents can't be perfect.

And yeah i know , the way I reacted to Mike was kind of stupid , though I realized  it is true , I mean , it is not the end of the world , and crying really wont fix this , because such a heartless man who only cared about his needs , sexually  ofcourse , would never care about a single tear on any of his family's faces.

it was 6 in the morning , and ofcourse we won't send Mike to school , he's way so emotionally disturbed right now..

and I, I could do nothing , and how hard it is to see pain in the eyes of your loved ones and not be able to do anything about it...
