"Stupid things like what?" I asked.

"Killing people"

I tensed. What kind of father is that? Is that why he's scared?

"What did the boy did? Is he okay? Did his father kill him?" He laughs.

"Good thing he didn't. His father was so obsessed on killing people he didn't even notice that he has a child. Let me say that, he already forgots him"

"Why did he become a killer anyway?"

"Because his wife was killed. The boy's mother died. It was an accident though. She was shot. She wasn't the target, but the bullet shot her accidentally. No one knows who the killer is. Because of that incident, his father didn't know what to do. He wants to take revenge, for her" And this time, Alexander's look so down.

Is he okay? I sigh.

"Well that's a stupid story!" I exclaimed. He look at me.

"Why are you telling me this kind of stuffs? It confused me okay? I don't get it" I frown.

"Gosh Sapphire. Can't you see I'm not done yet?" I puffed. This conversation of ours isn't going anywhere. I'm gonna lose my head.

"Just listen to me okay? Once I'm done, you're free to ask me questions" He pleaded. The story. What's with this story? I look down and nod at the same time.
