The Cat

"Honey, can you turn it down a little?"

A white Honda civic cruised on the East Nippon Expressway in Hokkaido. A family of three was going home from a camping trip.

"Darling, you know I love K-pop. Besides, our son Yuri loves it."

"Daddy, louder…louder."

"See, darling, our son loves it. My son will marry a K-pop Idol someday and make his dad proud."

She sighed. "Fine. Just keep your eye on the road… HONEY! WATCH OUT!!!"

A truck had crashed into them and sent their car flying. It flipped in the air and landed on the side of the road, with the car parts flying near the forest line. Blood was everywhere. The woman crawled out and carried her child.

Her body had managed to cushion the momentum from the impact leaving the little boy with minor bruises on the legs and arms. She took her last look at the upside-down car. Her husband hung from the seat belt of the driver's seat, lifeless.

"It's alright… papa and mama love you-."
