Hiro's Point of View
His Favorite
I was busy watching the NBA Finals Replay in my phone when suddenly my dad interrupted me, "Hiro, I'll just attend your Uncle's Pedro birthday." He said while busy combing his slightly white cleaned-cut hair.
I just nodded at him and just get back on what I'm doing.
After a minutes, I felt his hand on my shoulders. "I'll go now. Oh! One more, Take care of Chito. When I found out that you didn't take care of him, You're in trouble." I just pushed his hand of my shoulders and nodded at him again while my eyes are busy gazing at my phone.
Later on, I heard the door closed. I paused the video I'm watching and put my phone in the glass center table and stared at Chito.
Why it looks like Dad loves him more than me? What is the difference between us? What's in his mind to adopted Chito? Am I not enough? Is there any wrong with me? Am I bad son?
Everyday, I go to school. He will fed Chito first before me, sometimes he still forgets. Did he forget too that he has another child that is me? Is he getting old? Does he have alzheimer's?
He only remember me when he'll go out and reminded me to take care of Chito. I really envy Chito, sometimes I wish I was him. So, I can felt what is the feeling that there is a father who thinks for you every seconds, minutes and days, if you are okay and have you eaten your food.
I just sighed and stood up. I erased the thoughts that are always in my mind every time I stared at Chito. I just can't avoid thinking that much. I'm just longing for a father's love and care. But does he care? A BIG NO.
I got Chito's plate and place his food there and I even prepared a glass of water for him. He's my boss.
"Eat well, Chito. Daddy Anton loves you so much." I sarcastically remarked at him and patted his head.
He just ignored me and immediately smote his food. He seem to be very hungry, I pity him.
I sat down in front of him and just watched him to finish his food, He really eats a lot.
Suddenly, I began to stared at him again and thought some questions again.
What if Dad don't adopted Chito, will he give me the attentions that he have given to Chito? Will he take care of me from the start and treat me his own son more than he treat Chito. I really envy him. I wish he was gone. Really gone.
It maybe seems that I can take care of him until I die but no. Everyday, I looked at him. I wished he will disappear every time I woke up in the morning. I hate him a lot, to be a honest. I maybe look bad at you but if you were on my situation, you will think too what I'm thinking right now.
I really hate him because I felt that he denied at me what is a father's love. He gets all what I want even my father's attention, as I mentioned earlier.
Because of thinking again about longing for my father's love, I didn't notice that my tears are beginning to flow over my cheeks. It may sounds gay but you don't care, It's my life.
For the last time, I stared again at Chito and stood up. I need to do something so I can get what I want.
I closed my eyes to think for a plan. I need him to disappear from this house. I want him gone.
I quickly opened my eyes when I thought already for a plan. Aha! This is the only way.
I immediately go to the kitchen and get my weapon. I'm sorry Dad for doing this,
After I got the knife, I go back again at the living room and searched for Chito.
My eyes quickly found him. It's your end, Chito. You need to say goodbye.
I immediately gripped his body but he's so frisky so he escaped from my hands.
You still want to hunt, huh? Okay, I'll give what you want.
I chased him in every corner of our house before I finally catched him. The hunt is done, Chito. It's time to said goodbye.
I held his body tightly before I slit his neck. His blood began to overflow in the knife. It's smell so bad.
I'm sorry, Chito. It's just my time to get what you have taken away from me. I'm really sorry.
I know after what I've done, I'm in trouble. I'm ready to face what is the sequences. I'm ready to felt my father's belt. I'm ready to cry out loud because of pain. I'm ready to take it all because I killed my dad's favorite child. I killed Chito, HIS FAVORITE ROOSTER.
