It was raining cat and dog, the news caster said there's a big tropical cyclone that hit the country, right now I'm drench, cold and scared, it was night time the only light you can see is the source of light from this deflected flashlight, I'm in the deep part of this big forest, I was here for almost 5 hours. tears falling in my eyes, no I'm not crying , I shouldn't be. But my face is wet ,I can't recognize which is which , is it from my sweat, tears or water rain. I'm exhausted my arms gonna fall off, But i need to finish it, using a short shovel, I'm continuously digging this 5 feet foot whole. I need to hide my mother's body.
I think I'm stuck
Episode 1: "what's wrong with my mom ?"
.

later back then( a few days before) , It is the month of july right now, so its rainy season. My mothers keep on yelling my dad, saying how useless my dad is. I usually hear my mom doing that for almost everyday in a number of years. but right now it's becoming more physical.
Hello I'm mark a 12 years old male, we lived here in the countryside and our house is actually isolated from others, My mother is 30 years old, I hate her because she keep on yelling my dad, sometimes she even hit him. My father is 35 years old, 5 years older than my mom, but my dad is paralyzed and he is in life support for 7 years. He's hospitalized in our house because we can afford it. Our house is kinda big, we have big backyard surrounded by a a high fence, but I'm scared to go out because we're in the middle of the woods. My mom said this house is from my grand father on my father side. That this is a fruit of his hardworks that's why we're rich.
I don't remember anything since in my past, I have weak memories and didn't focus on little things. But I was curious that when we're going down to the city. We are well known by the people in there. we met my auntie kate from my mother side, my mother went on shopping for goods, and anything, I was left alone with my auntie, we went to her house and she gave me a milk. I was curious because We are well known But I don't Know a thing. so i Asked my auntie. about what happen.
Me; Aunt Kate, Aunt kate
Aunt kate: how can I help you my dear?
me; Aunt Kate can I ask you something?
aunt Kate: sure, what is this that bothering you?
me; I just want to know, why my mom is always like that on my dad?
Aunt kate: what do you mean?
Me: she keeps on yelling my dad, saying those bad words, doesn't she loved dad?
aunt Kate: Owww about that one? maybe your mom is just stressed in holding your family stay still, you'll understand her, when you grow up.
I'm not satisfied on her answer but I just let things end in the communication with my Aunt I felt like she's hiding something from too me, I don't want to ask my mother again about this topic because she beat me to dead before, when I asked her a number of times about what happen to dad.
after an hour of watching Television my mother finally come, I'm on the living room and they're talking inside my aunt's bedroom. I can't hear them clearly they're talking too low, like they don't want anyone to her their conversation. As a child my curiosity hit. I look for the thinnest wall in my aunt's bedroom and try to listen as I can. and what I heard shocked me, and put fears in my heart.
Aunt Kate: Its not your fault why you are in that situation, just hold on you can survive it.
Mom: I don't even know why things go this way. I just want to have a perfect family without any problem.
Aunt Kate: I know you from the start you're strong girl, we're siblings right? you can ask for my assistance anytime, but right now you just need to focus on your problem, focus on your husband , focus on your son .
Mom; you know I love him right? . but you're right maybe I should end him so we can breathe more freely, maybe you're right. I need to end the source of our problem.
When I heard my mom saying that thing I got shocked in fear and accidentally swipe the vase on my side. I immediately run outside and pretend not to doing something else, I saw them from the window that quickly go out from the room and look for what caused the vase to be fallen. I'm lucky, because my aunt's cat is in the living room. they put the blame on the cat.
after that, almost midnight. we went straight home, I was nervous, my brain has a lot of things inside, then we enter the forest straight to our house, I'm really scared please right now I don't know what to do. somebody help, My mothers planning to kill my dad, and I have nobody to ask for.

I know it's kinda late but promise is a promise so here I am.
As a child if I am in Mark's shoes I would be shocked and confused too. It's too much to handle for such a young age. I'm sad for him. But I can't blame the mom as well.
