It was an ordinary day in Doyos.
People are bustling with their own morning activities. Mothers are busy preparing their children for school while others are busy talking with their neighbors.
For Mano Roy, it was another day for tireless repair of bikes, shoes and motorcycles. But what he didn’t know is that it would be the last day of his life.
On the hands of his own son, he rested, with blood gushing from his own body.
“I am sorry”, that was the last word he heard before all else went blank.
He was a hard working father; he worked everyday in his little shop to provide for his family. But still it wasn’t enough.
His wife ventures the street everyday, talking to herself, creating a better world for her. But oftentimes all she could remember is the cruelty of the monsters that surrounds her that she become berserk.
His daughter is a beautiful girl but she also has a world of her own, separate from his world. There are days that she will come to earth and she will become his perfect daughter.
He thought his son would be different.
He worked extra hard so he could send him to school.
But it all ended in that ordinary day.
After a stroll in the boulevard, thinking about life in general, awareness came to his son and decided to live a life without him.
Dreams shattered, wasted life in the hands of a son.
Ciao!
