It's 2 pm and I'm still dead awake in the sleepless night waiting for my eyes to gently close, waiting for the peacefull darkness to take over just waiting for my heart to stop in it's tracks.

This can't be it no it's not true I keep telling myself that it's lies but I find myself being controlled by something or perhaps just maybe someone. I feel a slight chill up my spine a warning yes that's it. I suddenly have an urge to jump out of my large black marble bed hitting my head on the slowly moving fan blade above me.

As I groan from the pain to my head I hear loud sounds that appear to be gunshots I slowly open my door trembling with fear barely able to walk

I look through the house in search of my parents but they are nowhere to be found so I take my phone out and call my fathers cell barely pushing the buttons from the cold air filling the house. The door is propped wide open. I walk over to close it and there I saw it, the memory that will never leave my mind.

I saw my mother and father both cold lying on the cold hard ground in there own pool of blood. Dropping to my knees to call the police screaming to them "come to 4232Sicimore Ln my parents their... Dead ugh."

Hanging up the phone I ball my hand into a fist and hit the hard concrete my parents lie on till I se flashing lights through the woods coming from the other side towards me.

With the bright red and blue lights in my drive way I knew from now on that this moment would change my life forever. What would I do without my parents by my side to teach me right from wrong to tell me the truths of life to warn me of the bad things that can happen to me.....I'm alone now no brother or sister to tell me it's ok. No I was always an only child who got whatever he wanted you'd think I was spoiled but I was really just gifted with life as I knew it. My parents never hurt me but only loved me but now I'm here with my hands covered in their blood holding theirs crying onto them wishing it was like a movie where I could shed a single tear and save their lives like magic but no matter how hard I tried they never moved. ?

As the white cars with flashing lights approached my drive way with an ambulance not far behind them made me feel a deep amount of hatred thinking why weren't they here to save my mother and father, but I also thought to myself why didn't I save them what kind of a person let's their only family die.
