Chapter 6

ผู้เขียน: Yogurt Monster
Mom and Dad froze in place, stunned by Kelvin’s outburst. Their expressions instantly stiffened.

Kelvin’s eyes were red. His voice was thick with suppressed sobs.

“Carol is in trouble now, and you’re still arguing about this?

“If you didn’t love her, why did you bring her into this world? Why the favoritism?”

He reached out and pointed at the family portrait in the living room. In it, only Delila was smiling.

“On the day of the accident, I took Delila away. Shouldn’t you have gone to check

    The evidence was irrefutable. Delila had no room to defend herself.As the police led her away, she continued to wail hysterically.She claimed her parents favored me, accused me of stealing her things, and insisted that Kelvin only ever had eyes for me.To those listening, her words sounded utterly ridiculous.As she was forcibly dragged out, her shrill cries grew fainter and fainter until they vanished completely in the cold wind.The farce ended, and the guests departed with pitiful sighs.Only Mom, Dad, and Kelvin remained standing before my memorial photograph.Kelvin placed a diary and a small voice recorder from my room in front of them.“I found these in Carol’s room. Perhaps you should listen to this.”They turned on the recorder, and Delila’s voice filled the room. “So what if I framed you? Mom and Dad still believe me.“I’ll be Mom and Dad’s only precious daughter. Sooner or later, I’ll kick you out of this house!”Mom clutched her hair in anguish and kept repea

    Delila’s face was pale. Her whole body trembled.She clung to her parents, tears streaming down her face as she had done before, while begging them over and over to believe her.Kelvin frowned and shook his head in disappointment.“Even now, you’re still trying to wriggle out of it.”With that, he projected a USB drive onto the makeshift screen. “The dashcam footage has been recovered. The truth will be revealed shortly.”The final moments before my death was replayed, scene by scene. Delila’s shrill cry of “I want you dead!” echoed in everyone’s ears.My parents froze in place. Their blood seemed to have frozen solid.Mom snapped out of it first and staggered toward Delila. Her voice was trembling.“Tell me! Why did you hurt Carol? She’s your own sister!”Delila gasped for breath as she was gripped, terror filling her eyes.“Mom... I didn’t... She forced me... Carol picked on me first...”“Picked on you?!”Dad’s voice erupted suddenly. It was filled with unprecedented fu

    The sky hung heavy and gray as they claimed my body.They held the funeral at a church near our home.White candles illuminated my photo. It had been taken on my eighteenth birthday, and was the only picture in the house that belonged solely to me.Mom and Dad sat in the corner dressed in black. They did not wail, but silently shed tears with heads bowed.Mom’s voice was hoarse as she murmured memories of the past.“Remember when Carol was little? She’d always run after me. When I baked bread in the kitchen, she’d sit beside me, saying she’d build me a house out of bread when she grew up...”Dad’s eyes reddened too. He sighed. His voice was heavy with regret.“That year, I caught a fever from the rain and lost my appetite. She braved the storm to buy me a strawberry cake, only to come down with a high fever herself for three days...“She was just six back then. She fully believed that strawberry cake was the best thing in the world.”Mom wiped her tears and choked out a few wo

    Mom and Dad froze in place, stunned by Kelvin’s outburst. Their expressions instantly stiffened.Kelvin’s eyes were red. His voice was thick with suppressed sobs.“Carol is in trouble now, and you’re still arguing about this?“If you didn’t love her, why did you bring her into this world? Why the favoritism?”He reached out and pointed at the family portrait in the living room. In it, only Delila was smiling.“On the day of the accident, I took Delila away. Shouldn’t you have gone to check on Carol’s condition?“Now, the rescue team is saying she’s dead, and you can’t even be bothered to confirm it. You just think she’s seeking attention!“I’m starting to wonder if Carol is really as worthless as you claim, or… have you never once acknowledged her worth?”Kelvin’s words struck them like a slap across the face.Their expressions flickered, mouths opening and closing, yet not a single word of rebuttal escaped.“If you won’t confirm it, I will!”Kelvin turned to walk out right

    The phone clattered to the floor with a sharp crack.Mom froze in place. Her gaze did not leave the shattered screen.Her lips trembled. After a long while, she finally managed to squeeze out a hysterical cry.“Impossible! This can’t be true!”She lunged forward to pick up the phone. Her hands were shaking so violently that she could barely press the buttons.“You’re lying! That accident wasn’t serious! Delila was discharged in perfect health. How could Carol be dead?“On the day of the rescue, she only had a little blood on her chest. That minor injury was nothing!”A voice came from the other end. “Ma’am, we’ve verified the identity. The deceased is indeed Carol. Her chest was pierced by glass... When she was found, she showed no signs of life.”“I don’t believe it!”Mom screamed back into the phone.“Carol must have bribed you! She just wants to scare us and make us suffer! I’ve seen this trick too many times!”Dad frowned and chimed in.“How could she be dead? I bet she

    Kelvin did not immediately respond. He only remained silent, as if weighing whether I was truly as vicious as they claimed.Mom and Dad asked Kelvin to stay at home for a few days.Kelvin paused. “But Carol still has not been discharged yet. It’s been a full day. I really should go see her.”Dad cut him off. “Oh, we’re her parents. We’ll visit her. Since she hasn’t contacted us yet, she’s probably feeling too guilty to show up. I heard from the nurses at the hospital that there aren’t many critically ill patients lately.”He hesitated for a long time, then he nodded with downcast eyes.My spirit felt a tug from an invisible thread. I followed Kelvin’s footsteps involuntarily, never straying an inch too far from him.I watched him carry a plate of fruit into Delila’s room. He picked one up with a fork and offered it to her lips.Delila accidentally spilled juice on him, then carefully wiped it off.Their intimate gestures brought out a suggestive atmosphere. I felt countless nee
