Once upon a time there lived a boy...just your average next door quiet kid.
This boy thought he had a good family despite the fact that he hates his youngest brother. Growing up, the boy enjoyed watching serials on television. The shows he watched often had those typical scenes of a broken family where the father abandons the family etc.
The boy thought that would never happen to his self-percieved wonderfull family.
Years past and the young boy has now grown into a young man. This man still had the same perceptions about his family as before and the years have made him took his family for granted. However all these false notations are about to be changed.
The young man's father was seldom at home until the clock ticks 11pm excluding weekends. The young man thought that his father was a workoholic so he didn't really give a damn about it. One day his father blew the limit and didn't come home till 2+am in the middle of the night. The young man's mum, fed-up with all the waiting decided to lock the door to the masterbedroom, hoping to teach the father a lesson on coming home late. The young man's father, upon returning home decides to sleep in the study room instead.
2 weeks past...the young man's father continued to sleep in the study room while his wife sleeps in the master bedroom. Noticeably, the father came home later and later at night. The young man thought nothing of it as first, thinking that it was just a cold war that would dissolve in time.
But what was going to happened next changed that.
One night, the young man was left alone with his parents at home. While surfing the net, he could hear sobs and voices resonating from the living room. He strained his ears to hear what they were talking about. And he wished he didn't do that...
"Don't you want this family anymore?"
"Don't disturb me."
"What about our sons? Do you care about them?"
"Leave me alone."
"Then I might as well die!"
*silence*
The young man tried to make sense of it all, thinking why such a simple situation had ended up with such dire straits. For the next few days, he would get more clues to what actually happened.
His father kept sms-ing and calling someone. Instantly the young man suspected that his father had an affair with some slut bitch. His guess was correct.
The young man's heart now fills with hatred...hatred for the man he calls "Father". At the same time, he felt helpless and confused. He didn'y know what to do, who would?
The young man felt anguish and wanted to die. He felt that his life was worthless...after learning from a routine medical checkup that he had high blood pressure and heart problems, he thought that that would be the worst news for him. He just couldn't take another blow. And this blow was huge...
For the first time, the young man felt lonely...sure he had alot of good friends, but he lacked a confidante that he could poor out his sorrows to. He was devastated. The young man wanted to end his life but lacked the courage to do so. His world is now black with no guiding lights. He wished he was never even born.
He blamed everything...God...Fate...Destiny. He felt that they were unfair to him. What has he done to deserve such torment?? Every night after the incident he could not sleep. Tears rolled down his cheeks till they dried out. No one understands him...not even himself. He wish for everything to end but reality is mostly cruel. He has to live with that fact.
On Monday 10th April. The man had a close conversation with his mother. They were alone at home and his mum started crying like there's no tomorrow. His family is breaking up. His mother wishes to leave the house but the young man would not allow...afterall he could not stand the sight of his father. Neither could he stand the possiblity of a new woman entering his family. The man is in tears. He is in such misery that few would ever comprehend...
For every story there is a happy ending. But there is no end yet for this story. The young man is still shattered.
So good readers out there...please give advice for this young man on what should he do.
Maybe then...
...this story would have an ending.
