Born In Sin
Chapter 3, I Know That You Don't Care
December, 1986
Ryuzaki hit the ground hard. His lip was bleeding and his arm was broken. Ryuzaki non the less stood up holding his injured arm staring defiantly at his father.
"Dad stop!" Aiber begged. "You're drunk, leave him alone!" His father turned to look at Aiber.
"You stay out of this boy!" He said a little too loud. "Get up to your room." Aiber didn't move as he stared at Ryuzaki. "Now! You little shit!" He yelled. His father never called him things unless he was drunk. And when his father was drunk he was not a man to be messed with. Aiber took one last look at Ryuzaki and ran up the stairs to his room. He slammed the door shut behind him and leaned back on it. Wedy looked up at Aiber tears streaked her cheeks.
"Ryuzaki's down there isn't he?" She asked. Aiber nodded slowly. Wedy cried harder but she didn't make any noise. This was become a common occurrence lately. Usually their father would just ignore Ryuzaki. But lately he's been coming home drunk and picking on the poor boy.
Okay pickings a bit of a nice word in this case. More like beating him senseless. Many times now they've had to go downstairs and tent to his wounds before dragging him up to his room cause he couldn't walk on his own. A few times where broken bones have had to heal on their own cause no one would take the poor kid to a hospital. The whole time though, Ryuzaki never cried. He never made a noise. He took every hit, every blow in stride cause he didn't know any better.
Ryuzaki stared up at his father anger shining clearly in his eyes.
"Pain in the ass you are!" He said angrily to his 'son'. "Weren't supposed to be born. Ruined my life!" He said. He reached to the back of his pants and the next thing Ryuzaki knew he was staring down the barrel of a loaded gun. "Why won't you break?" He asked as Ryuzaki continued to stare at him. He didn't fear death. If anything, to Ryuzaki, death was a release. His freedom. His escape. "Should have killed you when you first showed up here. You don't deserve to live. You're worthless. Nothing but a waste of space."
Aiber and Wedy's eyes widened in shock at the sound of the gun blast. They both knew what had happened but neither moved from their spot in fear that they'd be next if they interfered. Tears flowed stronger down Wedy's cheeks and she buried her face in her arms, hugging her legs to her chest. Aiber stayed in front of the door, tears now brimming his eyes.
"No…"
(I know I know…. Sad aint it…. Poor L I'ma cry now. Lol anyway please R&R It gets better I swear!)
