C2 Sad heart

Richard sat outside his late father's house weeping sadly. He cleaned his eyes, the moment he remembered his father last word to him. Then he was just nineteen.

Flashback...

"Richard!"

Richard clear his sleepy eyes the moment he heard his name being called.

"Richard come quickly!!"

He stood up and ran out in a dash to meet his father who was busy trying to dig something out from the ground.

"Morning father!

Mr Johnson raised his head to look at Richard

And smiled at him then he stopped what he was doing and stroke his head gently

"Pray to b like papa...who wakes up early to provide for the family..

"Ahhh father! You said I was trying...

"Did I said that emmm....

Smiled "yes father you did!"

"Shhhhh..let me think emm maybe but I can't recall.."

😔

Stroke his head gently "son live for today okay..and be hard working, I might live you one day in this world just as mama did, it's left for you to strive for yourself and future,

"Father promise you won't leave me just as mother did"

"I won't!!!!!!!

Richard cried bitterly the moment he realized..

His father was no longer with him

"All alone in this.... lonely world!

It's a thorn in my heart...

My past is full of humiliation

Happiness seem to sneak away

Sadness take a peck at me...........

Fresh tear began to run down his cheek.
