1. The start of our suffering

"Honey I..I don't feel so good." Those are the last words my mom said. My father Ben and my mother Jovi had been couples in almost 20 years. A few years passed after they've gotten married, things started to change. One night when Ben was going to work, mother was left in the house. While she was cleaning the house. She heard a knock on the window, she didn't mind it at first but after half a minute the knocked continued once but this time it was louder. And after that she went to the window checked if there was really a person knocking on the window. She slowly reached the window and opened the window with fright. She felt relief when she saw no one at the window. It didn't end there, she heard a sound of a baby crying, and a black shadow that look like a man appeared in the stairs. Jovi screamed and covered her ears and close her eyes as she looked away. The moment she opened her eyes was a relief she saw Ben standing and calling her name.

"What's the problem?" Ben asked.

"I saw a shadow who looked like a man at the stairs and a baby voice." Jovi responded.

...

"Maybe your just hallucinating." "How about you just go to bed. And I will ask my boss if I can work in the morning instead." Ben advised Jovi.

"Okay" Jovi said.

While they're sleeping, Jovi had a terrible nightmare. In her dreams, she saw the man who is pitched black. He said "Name your child Francis or else...." Jovi was confused about what he meant by that, not until the man showed a picture: of a baby stabbed in the heart, Ben and Jovi hanging, people with no heads and bad luck.

At the morning Jovi cannot wake up but her heart is still beating. She was rushed into the hospital as fast as they could. Ben was sitting outside, hoping if she is still alive.

The doctors were shocked about what they found out. They called Ben and told about what happened. "Jovi is pregnant!?" "That's impossible!"

Jovi woke up from a coma 8 months later.

"Are you ok now?" Ben asked

"Yeah" Jovi Responded

"The doctors said you are pregnant. Is that true?" Ben asked

"I..I don't know. But the last thing I remembered is the black man. He said we need to name our son Francis, or else..."Jovi said with fright "Or else.. What? Ben responded

"Or else he will kill us all!" Jovi said with tears dropping in her eyes.

"It was just a dream no one can harm us. In fact he's just a shadow. A shadow is just a light who has been block-"

"No" Jovi shouted before Ben could even finish his words. "That is not true! He even showed a picture of us hanging and our baby stabbed! You should know it Ben, you should!"

After that Ben just stood up and walk away. With his last words "That is not my son."

Years passed by my mom Jovi have taken care of me alone. It is hard for her, taking care of a baby and having all of this things stuck in her head that are making her crazy.

[That's why we need to take care of our mother]

When I was 7 someone knocked the door.

I opened the door and shocked to see a tall man with a tall hair.

I called Mom and said he is Ben.

I don't know who he is so I asked again.

Before mom can even answer he said

this

"I am your dad"

I cannot believe what I just heard .

He left us a long time ago, he didn't

let mom explain what's happening!

I cannot forgive him.
