almost four weeks have passed since the incident but no follow up report
i hear nothing
probably the police are still waiting for her to recover from her wounds
i was four or five when my mother held a knife in her hand
and chased me without any apparent reason
i ran desperately jumping from one piece of furniture to another
through the rooms of our small housing estate
her face was mad crazy devil
i felt like hours
even now i don’t know how long it really lasted
but she finally gave up
like all the mothers who attempt murder suicide choose daytime when their husband is out
my mother also chose the time when my father was out at work
my father never knows
and even my mother doesnt remember at all
–why did you do that to me
i asked her once
–what are you talking about are you insane why do you make up such a thing
she answered laughing
she has been acting a good mother since i was born
i wish i had been killed that day
and she had been arrested
because she wouldnt have been killed herself like the mother in the news
