For All the Parents Out There
It's not a guarantee for a child to show like they don't feel any sense at all.

My brother enters the room again where me and my grandma are ready to sleep.

"Mom's finding for her pillow."

He kneeled and find for a pillow that could be Mom's.

I don't pay attention, at first.

"Hey, bring these to Mom."

He's giving the pillows to me.

"Why me, you can do that yourself."

Irritably, I said.

Then he suddenly sobbed and wiped his tears.

"Why are you crying?"

I thought he's just wanting attention because I refused to give a hand.

"Mom curses at me for just the wrong pillow I brought. She does not need to do that."

I know. I know it myself that it is, and will always be wrong to curse your parents, but it's getting too far now.

It is, and will always be wrong for ANYONE to say hurtful things even if he is your OWN fucking child came from your OWN fucking womb.

It is not, and will always not your duty as our parent to do that. We also deserve respect inside and outside of this fucking family.

We deserve the love you always flex on social media that has NEVER been fucking true inside our house.

We never cursed you to be cursed back. We respected you, but didn't get any in return.

I see myself on my brother when I was in his age. And I'll never gonna be surpresed if one day, he will turn down his sweetness against you. I will not wonder why his heart would harden when it comes to you.

You're asking me why I don't show you my love like before? Well, it's funny because you're making the answer to your very own question.

Look how I became, Mom. I heartless sobber bitch. I don't like hugs, I don't like kisses, if they came from you.

And will never be.

You're curse is too much burden for them to light up even just a little.

The hope for that is gone.

And no material thing could ever bring it back.

You raised me in a bad way, Mom. and I hoped you won't do that to my brother.

But here you are, failing again.

It's not a guarantee to be silent just because you are our Mom.

No education from school could ever teach good manners and respect to a child better than a Mother.

But it seems you know no better.
