Chapter 2 - Chapter 2 : Going Back

Speech Festival

A great day it is, I opened my window to see the outside, I saw kids playing, enjoying every moment they had. I began to dissociate while watching the kids

What if I was given a chance to change myself?

What if I was given a chance that chance will I allow myself to change?

What if I've been responsible enough as a kid?

So many what-ifs running on my mind, too many memories came back, I saw the moment when me and my parents are together

We were in the park, I was playing together with the other kids

but then I saw the girl, crossing the road, Moments after I saw my mom already laying on the road

She was hit by a truck

People ran to her

...I ran to her

I saw her lifeless body, I looked at the girl she saved, she lived, my mom didn't

We made eye contact before she ran away

I looked back at my mom's lifeless body

I was shocked

I felt like the world just betrayed me

I blacked out

The last thing I remembered was the crowd chattering and looking for help

*******************************************************************************************************I found myself at the hospital, my dad was there he ran to me as if there's no tomorrow

Will there be still tomorrow?

He said that my mom didn't make it, the moment I saw him cry, was also the moment that My world shattered, my heart was longing, my mind can't Think Straight

I got discharged, we went home after my mom's funeral, the accident happened a week ago

When we went home, I felt like a piece of me was gone, a missing piece....oh gosh I miss her

5 months later

My dad died, he died while he's on his way to the hospital for his work

Car crash, if only he didn't drink that day I would have been able to hug him right now

I asked the world why does it hate me?

My aunt and my uncle adopted me, they were wishing to have a kid and it happens that no one will take care of me so they did

I was only 9 years old when my world falls apart

Where I fall apart

Moments later I gasped when I heard a loud crash downstairs, I ran down to see what was going on, I rushed and panicked only to see that my mom broke a plate I rushed to her

"Mom are you all right?" I asked hoping she is

"Y-yes, there's just so much in my mind lately, but you need to go prepare for school right now," my mom told me happily

I wish I could be happy too

I nodded and went back upstairs to go shower

As I entered the bathroom I prepared the hot water

"Maybe if they are still alive, they would be so proud of me," I said while looking at the mirror before I go and took a shower.

Will they be proud of me....right?
