{in this part, you will be in Benji's perspective}

I walked home in the rain. It was a bitter cold evening. I felt betrayed in a way, Milo might have ditched me and Avani hates me. But at least I've got Xowie: right? I eventually get to my place. I enter through the door and then I lock it. Immediately, I race up to my room and call Xowie.
~
She answers within seconds.
~
Xowie- Hey baby!
Benji- Hi, what you up to?
Xowie- Talking to the light of my life, what are you up to?
Benji- What a coincidence, because I'm doing the exact same thing!
Her face goes from having a cheerful expression, to a stunned expression.
Xowie- We need to talk.
I worry in fear. What was it about?
Xowie- A little birdie has just text me saying you hurt Avani in year eight on "accident." Care to explain yourself?
Benji- She doesn't know this but, I was forced. I liked her back I really did but I just couldn't commit to a relationship without my drunken father chipping into my business.
Xowie- Anything else?
Benji- Then I "forced" her to date me. Then she finally had the common sense to break up with me. The truth is though, I still love her, and I still love you.
Her face drops with a disgusted look.
Xowie- Let me guess, you're pretending to love me to get closer to Avani. That little birdie also said you had paid a little visit to Milo and Avani, and you had called her babe. EXPLAIN BECAUSE I DON'T DESERVE THIS, AFTER EVERYTHING IV'E BEEN THROUGH.
She bursts into tears.
Xowie- Choose, me or Avani. You can't love the both of us forever.
I think hard.
Benji- You.
Xowie- Wise decision. Look I don't want to see your face right now, so I'm hanging up. Bye.
Benji- Goodb-
I get cut off by three beeps.

I have a plan. A gruesome one. To kill my father, but not physically, but with alcohol. No, I won't do anything with the liquid, I'll just give him a lot of alcohol and let him chug away to his heart's content, that's the plan.
~
I sneak out of my bedroom and into the basement. As I'd expected he was sat in his chair and watching the television. It illuminated his face with colour.
I go into the basement and go towards the alcohol corner. I grab as much as I can and walk back out. I walk towards my father.
Benji's Dad- WHA- well I say, treating your old man. Thanks son.
Benji- Not a problem dad. Now drink to your heart's desire, you only live once right?
He chuckles.
Benji's Dad- Yes that's the spirit lad. Now get back to your room, it's eleven o'clock.
I did what he told me to. I sit on my bed and wait.
~
I hear a smash of glass. It wakes me from my sleep. I instantly open my door and run down the stairs. My jaw drops. My dad was so drunk he killed my mum.
Benji's Dad- Hey son! Thanks again for them drinks. It helped me do what I needed to do. Now you scurry along, I don't want to hurt you too.
Benji- Again my pleasure for the drinks. See you in the morning.
Benji's Dad- See you in a few hours.
~
I run back to my bed and cry into my pillow, my mum was gone, and it was my fault. I quickly wipe my tears away because my dad was walking up the stairs.
Benji's Dad- Come help me son.
Benji- Sure!
We go downstairs together and stand on the bottom step.
Benji's Dad- We should hide the body, but where.
Benji- I have an idea, care to hear it?
He nods his head.
Benji- We pretend that she has fallen down the stairs, then we just have a normal funeral, then cremate her.
Benji's Dad- You my son, are a genius, you hear me? A genius.
I start to feel like this is actually the thing for me. Helping my dad do things like this. It felt thrilling. It felt amazing. It felt right. I had lost all hope with love and everything else, so why not do what I'm doing?

My next activity is to not hurt Xowie, but break her heart.
