My name is Raphael Zungu ,I was a famous motivational speaker , script writer and novelist.I spoke thousands words at work and I use more thousands words on my scripts and novels.My work was to spin words until they become meaningfull to someone ,perhaps words were my weapon of choice."A close friend of mine".When I got home I only use three words "I love you" I use these words to my gorgeous wife Jennifer Lopez ,she was my world.I also us these words to my handsome son Johnny ,he was my pride.I was a rich man before I got arrested for murder ,"Do you want to know how on earth did I ended up here? Then listen".
One day I got back from work to home , something unusual happened.My son "Little champ" ran to me and he gave a tight hug ,I was shocked because he was not that type of a kid ,he used to hate hugs and kisses.When I somehow hugged him or kiss him ,he used to say "God dammit dad ,stop that ! I'm not a child anymore ,see I'm tall and strong.So please stop kissing me".He used to hate offers and gifts ,he used to say "Hey you old man ,stop spoiling me.If you feel like spoiling someone then spoil your wife ,not me."He was very stubborn , only me and his mother understood that he was still a child but he thought that he was old enough to take of himself."A 12 years old boy , just imagine" ,I was proud of him.Perhaps he was my pride and my Jennifer was my strength ,my pillow to cry on.After hugging me he then said "Dad , Tommorow is my first match on my new team.Can you please be there".I took a deep breath , while I was about to reply my wife spoke too "Please dear , our son needs us ,he need our support.Please do come".Even if I was about to say no ,there was no way that I can say no to my angel.Then I said "Don't you worry little champ ,I will be there".They became so happy and I never saw them that happy before , seeing them that happy it felt so good.
The big day for my son was on Friday ,he was so eager to be on the pitch. Sadly I didn't know that he was eager to leave with his mother for good ,to leave me all alone in this cruel world.On that day I was supposed to go and motivate Zephania Secondary School candidates.I was supposed to be there around eight o'clock in the morning ,I said to myself "I will manage ,I will stay one hour at Zephania and thenI will go and support my son".That was the plan , guess what ,the plan didn't go as planned.I got stuck on the roadblock on my way to support my son.While I was stuck there ,my wife gave a call she was very worried ,she said "Where are you Raph ,are you coming or not?".I replied "I'm sorry honey ,but don't worry ,I'm on my way.I will be there soon".I guess I was having a bad day , because I reached the soccer field late and they were already not there anymore.I thought that they had took a taxi to take them home , unfortunately I didn't find them at home too.I gave them a call but there was no one answering the phone.I thought that maybe , just maybe they are giving me a chance to prepare myself on how am I going to seek forgiveness.I was also wrong about that , time kept ticking over and over and over again.Still they didn't show up ,I kept calling them now and the , leaving voicemails and still nothing.
I kept walking around the house like crazy man ,"And yes I was insane ,I was a lunatic".As the time kept ticking over and over ,I was also getting more and more worried , each an every second I was getting more crazy.I started feeling uneasy , feeling like crying aloud and I assumed that it was because there are not at home.It felt like Jennifer and Johnny were screaming on my ears , screaming for help.And those voices were driving me insane.I took my car keys rushing towards the door ,when I was about to hold a door handle , someone knocked on the door.Again I assumed that it was them ,I opened the door.very fast but it was not them.It was a cop ,a famous cop.A cop told me that my family met up with an car accident and I refused to believe ,he also told me that they were gone ,I shouted at him "Shut up ! No..no...
No...they can't leave....they can't leave me officer sir.Listen ,you must be mistaken ,they are on their way back home.They just can't leave me".My body suddenly started shacking ,it felt like someone poured cold water on me.A cop took me straight to the mortuary ,where I saw my son body.He was really died ,and my wife her eyes were wide open.I could see that he was screaming , crying for help but no one came to help."I didn't help ,I didn't".
