ACCIDENTAL CRIME

I was in the train, listening to the mp3 music playing loudly. The ambient was noisy with people chatting while some sleep. My phone rang. It's my mom. I picked up the phone, hearing heavy breathes of my mom. I asked her why and what happened. She took a deep breath and said " accident. Your father had an accident. " and hangs up. I panicked. I dash out of the train and took a cab home. While cabbing back, i saw people surrounding at an area nearby the road infront of my house. Reached, I quickly ran across the road, breaking in through the crowded people, and saw my dad lying down on the road, with his motorcycle far away at the pedestrians path.

I shouted " WHO DID THIS?! "

with everyone staring at me, wondering who am i. I ignores them, and ask my mom instead. It was a taxi who crashes with my dad's motor. Frustrated, i look up, and glare at the taxi driver. Couldnt control my temper, i walked towards him, pulling up his collar shirt,shouting " You did this? who's gonna bare the consequences? I have 2 siblings with a housewife mom, who's going to work and earn money for us if not our my father? now look what you've done to him. Now speak, how this thing happen!" He went speechless and i knew,he was at fault. I then cool myself down. I didnt know what else to do but to wait for the ambulance. Watching my mom crying brought me to tears.

Soon later, the ambulance came and picked my father up. But my father was conscious at that time, with him screaming in pain. It hurts to see. I really do. All i could do was see him suffer in pain. He then recovers few months later, but now, with a bionic knee cap. He walks normally, and lives normally like before. But i know until now, he's still suffering the pain. But Im proud to have a strong father, still working hard at the dirty, stuffy factory with heavy duty and overtime work just to support us, the family. He's forever my hero in life.

Soon later, while walking to school, I saw a familiar face walking towards me, just that i couldnt remember who. He said hello to me. Well i replied him back without asking who is he. We walk pass one another. But suddenly i feel a sudden punch behind my back. I fell down, feeling hurt, i scolded vulgars while turning back. It was the familiar guy whom i barely remember. But my mind suddenly brights up, and remembers he was the taxi driver whom knocked on my father causing the accident. I stood up and ask him whats with him punching me down. He shouted he came by just to have vengeance. My knees suddenly shaken with fear. Seconds later he gave me the second punch, now at my face. I got shocked! With the anger now, i fought back when the police came and arrest both of us. I was badly hurt, blue blacks and scars all over me. Inside the police car, i cried. Thinking about my family and my future.

At the station, I was being asked by 2 policemen sitting infront. To what causes the fight. I said i was self defending myself as he gave me 2 punches first at the back and face. The police can see it, and then questioned the taxi driver. Soon later i was dismiss from the station, but saw both my parent waiting outside. I ran and cried to them for forgiveness. While at the back, i heard the taxi driver shouting vulgars to me. He was sentence for months for guilty of the accident and violence.

I was relieved when everything came to an end. Living the normal life again with my family. From then onwards, i became a much wiser person and cherish what i have now.
