What’s worse having someone make you kill your parents, or watching them do it? This is what I asked myself one morning, but never really answered it, hoping it would never came to that, it did. But unlike what I imagined, he didn’t give me but a second to answer, when I didn’t respond, he sliced their necks open. I wanted to scream, but nothing came out, I could hear nothing and only feel my tears roll down my face. I thought he was kidding, on my way home he talked about how evil my parents were, and that we should kill them, we laughed, but that wasn’t the end of it, it seemed.
He dropped the knife, and said, “See, I told you we could do it”, he paused, shrugged and turned; he was heading for the door. I snapped, in a blind fury, I picked up the knife, charged him, and stuck him in the back, he fell. There was no noise, in an instant three people were lying dead in my house. I closed the door, walked up to the stairs, curled into a ball, and cried for what seemed like hours, as I wondered, was it finally over?
I was getting tired, and it was getting late, not wanting to sleep on carpeted stairs, I began heading toward my room. On the staircase, I looked at the bodies, wondering if I should have called the police, an ambulance, or anyone. I decided it was too much to deal with tonight, took a glimpse at the bodies, and headed upstairs.
I came down the next morning and went to the fridge, got out the orange juice and was heading to get a cup, when I realized, I turned, the tile floor was spotless, and there was no trace of any murder. I dropped the juice, it burst, but I didn’t even notice, I was paralyzed with fear, and full of questions. Who got the bodies? What’d they do with them? Did they know what happened? But, there was an even bigger question that I couldn’t understand, why?
It was summer, no one was expecting me, so I stayed at my house, puzzled by what had happened, knowing that there was someone who was out there that knew of the deaths, and that I had to find them.
