charlos is a 16 years old stubborn boy.
His dad forbids him for going to adult locations.
One day, Charlos brought his lil brother to a club bar. Charlie dosen't knew anything but to follow his brother while their dad is at work.
They hang there for hours with dancing, screaming,singing, drinking with excitement. everyone at the bar knew they are David's sons so they thought its better not to interrupt them.
An hour later, the front door opened. Everybody went quite when they see his stern face. they all knew he is furious. searching for someone. the two brothers didn't mind their surroundings and continue to dance and drink.
The man steps behind them with a serious face.
"CHARLOS ENDERSON!" He said clearly. evryone in the bar did nothing but observes the moment. charlos and charlie feared. their dad pulls charlos's arm but he shoves back.
"stop it dad. you're embarrasing me! i'm not a kid anymore!" charlos step back a way from his dad.
"didn't i told you not come here? i want you to get back home and do your homework" he ordered. charlie stands still with his head stares down at his feet. afraid to look at his dad's angry eyes.
Charlos obeyed. But he is still not satisfied for his dad humiliated him in front of everyone in the bar. so he continues took a fight with him when they arrived home.
"i fucking hate you.." charlos said. hes not afraid of whats going to happen. in fact, hes ready for it. But all his dad said was,
"go upstairs and do your homework" he ordered. looking straight to his son's face. charlie already went upstairs.
"no. you don't deserved us. you took us away from mom. don't lie to me David."
"well,i'm still your father. and you should learn calling me that. now before i break your arm, you better get upstairs"
"YOU DON'T DESERVED US!"
"WELL I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK! BECAUSE MY JOB IS TO FUCKIN RAISE YOU AS HOW YOUR MOTHER WANTS! GET TO YOUR ROOM!" David threw a glass vase from the table then it scattered on the floor. Charlos finally obeyed.
charlos kicks his shabby drawer couple of times until it falls to the ground. good luck he avoided before it crashes on him. the top cabinet banged open until a suitcase comes fell out. it was dusty. charlie intended to check it. inside there was a bunch of old junks and a piece of envelope. he reads it.
"its from mom.."
a half an hour later, charlos knocks his dad's door and steps in.
"dad..why'd you lied to us? about mom..she had cancer?" charlos couldn't hold his tears from falling down. David sits beside his bed.
"i promised her not to tell you about it, son.." the elder said with grief. Charlos goes towards his dad and hugged him.
"we are so sorry for hating you dad..we were wrong. I...i was wrong.."
"thats never my problem son. because my job is not to be liked, or love.. my job is to raise you properly"
