The more I think about it as the days go by… The death of my father was sad for me but not for my mother the one that killed him…

            “sorry I forgot to introduce myself. Hi I’m Chad and my fathers name is Bryant and my moms name is Kate.”

            My mom says she killed my dad because he was sick and dieing slowly. But I’m smarter then that I know she was just lying to make me feel better. She killed him because he was different from us. And they were always fighting, and I guess she just couldn’t take it anymore. Now my moms in jail for murder for 4 years, where she deserves to be. I was 6 when my dad was killed and now I’m 9. I’ve gone 3 years without my dad. And the thing that I think is stupid is that she just got put in jail 2 months ago. My sisters Vanessa, Lindsey, and Katherine didn’t not know anything of this. They don’t even know that Bryant and Kate are they’re parents. But now that dad and mom are gone I my is well tell them about they’re real parents. Because were in a foster home.
