Something's wrong with Mama.

She's just lying on the ground looking up at me, her eyes al glassy. I dunno know what's going on, Mama looks sick.

I wonder if Papa did it. He's always doin' stuff to Mama and it hurts her.

I dunno why he does what he does, but I hope he never turns on me. Now all he does is call me names and tell me I'm a stupid little five year old.

I'm not stupid and I'm not five.

I'm seven, my birthday was two days ago. Papa forgot and Mama just handed me a sandwich.

It was the best sandwich I ever had.

I think Mama made it herself, not a servant. But now something's wrong with Mama.

She's just looking up at me, smiling.

I'm scared. I don't want anything bad to happen to Mama, she's the only one who loves me.

She told me so once.

It was a sunny day; there were no clouds in the sky. I could see so from the big window in my room that overlooks a huge city. My room is on one of the top floors in a huge building at the middle of this city.

Mama walked into my room and came over to me as I looked out the window.

"You know I love you right?" she asked me as she gave me a hug.

"Uhuh!" I said and I gave her the biggest smile I could. She just smiled back at me, like she's doing know.

Papa just walked in and told me to scram. I shake my head and look at Mama. Papa starts yelling. I don't hear him; I learned to tune him out years ago. Mama weakly tells him to stop, but he doesn't listen to her. I am scared for Mama; I hope she'll be okay.

Papa just walks out.

That can't be good. Bad things happen when Papa just leaves.

I look at Mama and tell her everything will be okay. She just smiles at me and pulls out a knife.

Now I am scared. I don't know what she's gonna do with that knife.

"I'm sorry Rufus," she says to me. I don't know why she would be sorry, she's done nothing to me bad.

She then slowly takes the knife and slits her throat.

All I can do is scream as I watch in horror as the life slowly drains from her body forever.
