Chapter. 1 Normal

Rena's POV

*BANG* "You stupid *****! You don't know anything!" "Yeah! And you never cared about us! How much money did you spent this time?!"

Again....it happened again...They always argue with each other...Is this how parents are? There supposed to be arguing with each other daily? I'm sitting on the same chair, listening to the same words...same screaming and shouting... Everything is the same day by day, I'm used to it.

"That's it! I've had enough of your stupid words!" screamed dad. Mom was confused as dad never said that in any of the arguments before. For once I was relief, thinking that maybe he would stop the argument once and for all. I was right, but it didn't ended the way I expected...Dad ran to the kitchen and came back with a knife in his hand, he pointed at mom and said" I'm ending this once and for all! I'll get to live a better life without you two!" Mom started to shiver, seemingly terrified about the current situation "Calm Down! You've lost your mind! Are you really planning to kill us?!" I didn't do anything, just sat at the chair, wondering how this would end...Not long after, Dad ran to mom and started stabbing her. Mom was screaming, louder than ever. Her breath was heavy, as if she couldn't speak anymore. Dad was brutal, he kept stabbing her until she stopped... Stoped struggling, stopped screaming, stopped working. I knew I was next, but I didn't leave. I know that there's nothing a five year old like me can do. Even if I tried running, I would've been dead either way...

Then, Dad turned around...He looked at me with the same creepy eyes, as if he is insane. He came to me slowly saying with a scary tone" Don't worry... I know I let your mom suffer....but ... not you. So I'll give you a quick death". As he raised his hand, and almost stabbed me in the head, a bottle came from behind and hit his head which made him unsteady. So instead of stabbing my head, he ended up cutting my hand. It hurts...my hand was bleeding, but I can't do anything about it...it's how it works...how the world works...

Turns out the bottle was thrown by my mom. She somehow is still alive, she said in a soft yet shaky tone "don't....don't..do it.... she is.....innocent" And that was my mom last words. Afterwards, she fainted and never woke up again...Dad was pissed and shouted " Your already dead yet you still want to protect this piece of crap?! Huh, well too bad you can't!" He turned back to me and said "I was interrupted once, but not twice" He raised his hand...again, attempting the second time, trying to kill me off. I thought to myself, well this life ends here...I closed my eyes, and await my death..

*BANG*

I opened my eyes and heard police sirens. Apparently , my neighbours heard my mom scream and felt something was wrong, she was worried so she dialed the police. Two policeman came in, one arrested my dad and another one came in to check the house. Soon they took me out and said "It must've been hard on you. You've been brave" I don't understand....brave? Hard on me? Isn't this how it works? isn't this how everyone treats each other? Guess there's more that I don't know...I couldn't think too much anymore...I felt nauseous all of a sudden and before I knew it I fainted, probably because of lack of blood.

And.....That's the end for chapter one! Hope you enjoyed it! I'm looking forward to any critisims or changes in the comments! Are you curious about what's going to happen next? Well wait and see! I'll be writing soon enough! so don't worry too much about it!
