My Happy Memory

Life Unexpected

Chapter One

My life was different growing up. I was adopted when I was 8 years old after the death of my parents. The people who took me in the Sullivan’s they were my family now but when I was small I lived in a big house in a small quite town called Twin brook. Before my real parents died, we were very happy always smiling and playing it was the best memory I have of them. The only memory I have of them. Every Sunday we would go to church and then to the art museum where my mother’s paintings and sculptures were at. I was much memorized by my mother she was beautiful, smart and very talented. Both of my parents were in the law enforcement. Always on the job but always made time for me. I loved my parents very much.

On the faithful day, was the last time my family was happy. We were at the art museum where my mother was showing me and my father her latest master piece. “I really like how this came out, how the statue was perfectly in place. One of my best I think.” Mother told us how she worked very hard on this, she whispered and told me that it was just for me, she called it ‘Lily on the shore’ dad looked bored and mom looked at him “Antony!!’ she lightly hit him on the armed “ WHAT!! Oh yeah sorry I’m tired, I had a long day at work and I didn’t get any sleep last night, I’m sorry darling I think it’s wonderful.’’ Dad kissed mom on the cheek to apologise my mom didn’t want to hear it but she laughed and smiled back.

All of a sudden I hear a gun shot. I was so frighten that my mother grab me and kneed on the floor and I looked and I saw my father on the ground laying there breathless and not moving. I didn’t see anyone around, my father carried a gun but he wouldn’t harm himself and leave his family behind. I looked up and asked my mom “His he..” mom held me close to her “Don’t look my darling, don’t look.” I looked at my mom’s face a tear was running down her soft smooth skin, I never seen my mom’s cry.

But, not only that years later after the death of my father, something happens to me and my mom.This wasn't the end of that person who killed my father and shatter my family.

It's Only the Beginning
