Glass Shatter X Culprit’s Sheltered: Scattered!

what the fuck have i done that

i deserve something like this?

 

a Swedish-made souvenir

Snoopy Let’s Mango perfume

fell from the hand of my niece

just like that

and i was blamed for

how could you let her hold something so fragile

how could you leave something precious to YOU on the table

just like that?

all scattered

 

the fruity scent soon permeated the whole space

smelled lovely, still

please remember this scent, Steph

but that’s the last of it, definitely

i picked the bottle up from trash bin

without anyone seeing

or they will accuse me of being a trashy again

it’s okay

it’s still standing strong

broken perfume bottle, with Snoopy smiling

 

15 minutes later

i sat there doing tasks

pretending,

it’s alright

it’s alright

 

then the culprit started playing with my iPad

at the other corner

and abused 3 Smurfberries for

games at lucky draw stall,

earning petty flowers

 

okay

maybe that doesn’t sound like anything serious

if you are not a player

that really infuriated me

even more than the first time

 

i have been playing this game for almost 2 years

and this is not the first occurrence

and i still had to keep cool

and went on pretending that

it’s no big deal, really

 

because

the culprit’s mother was sitting right in front

she plays the game

she knows how devastated i could get to

lose Berries like that

 

and her attitude since

the perfume broke was the same throughout:

INDIFFERENCE

 

it’s my fault

it’s all my fault

i let my bloody perfume runs wild all over the table

i let my Smurf Village appears so attractive to kids

 

all she said was:

stop messing with her iPad

go play with mine on the phone

 

so the obedient culprit

just left the iPad alone

and started some other way more interesting games

on the phone

 

then the mom added:

I WILL ASK YOUR DAD TO GET YOU A TABLET SOON

 

speechless

no i have to remain mute

i just have to

 

in the movie 《Caught in The Web 搜索》

the tycoon boss said:

problem which is solvable with money

is not a problem at all

 

yeah

i think he is probably right

although he is dirt rich yet

i am dirt poor 

 

at least

i feel better comforting myself with this line

 

i can buy tonnes of Smurfberries

cart of perfumes to flood the house

 

and i do not have to go on pretending that

i am perfectly happy being

part and parcel of this house

most of the time,

as a condescending household-helper

in order to earn extra pocket money

 

she is just a kid

she is just a kid

she is just a kid

culprit caught red handed twice

 

fuck my life

 

sorry i could no longer watch my language

it’s  better that slashing it out loud in their faces

 

i tried it once,

not even that kind of language

it was just some shouts

and i paid a terribly price for it

 

prices, in fact

which i could not possibly forget for

the rest of my life
