Chapter 1

The heat inside the oven surged from every direction. Everything was scorching hot, as if on fire.I pounded desperately on the glass door in front of me until my hands turned red."Daddy! I learned my lesson! Save me! It's too hot! I want to get out!" I screamed, sobbing. My skin accidentally brushed against the metal wall, and the sharp sting made me pull back instantly. Dustin Decker leaned close to the oven and said smugly, "That's what you get for always bragging about your dad at school. Well, he doesn't want you anymore. From now on, he's only buying toys for me, and he's only going to love me.""No! He's my daddy!" I cried so hard my voice went hoarse. Sweat and tears dripped onto the floor of the oven, sizzling and evaporating in an instant. Dustin gave me a nasty grin, then turned and ran out of the kitchen. I heard him talking to my dad, Peter Johnson, in the hallway. "Daddy, Julian is inside the oven talking bad about you. He said if you don't let him out, he

Dustin immediately jumped up and looked at Daddy eagerly."Daddy, I want to eat that strawberry cake!"Daddy froze. When he spoke, his voice was tight, as if those words were being dragged out of him. "This cake is for—"He cut himself off, as if a hand had suddenly squeezed his throat. Closing his eyes, he took a deep, heavy breath. When he opened them again, he forced a strained, exhausted smile. "Alright, you can have the cake."Dustin let out a triumphant cheer. Floating in the air, I felt a sharp, agonizing stab in my heart—even though it had already stopped beating. The pain was a thousand times worse than being burned alive in that oven.Dad used to tell me that Mommy cheated because I was too greedy. So why was he buying cake for Dustin now?Dustin happily devoured the cake. Noticing Daddy staring blankly toward the kitchen, he put on a fake look of concern. "Daddy, should we call Julian out to eat? He might be hungry."Those words instantly shattered Dad's fra

Daddy rushed over, his face still clouded with annoyance at Grandma for opening the door without his permission."Mom, leave Julian alone! I want to see just how long he can—"Daddy abruptly stopped mid-sentence.He caught the stench, too, his gaze locking instantly onto the large oven.A trickle of murky, viscous yellow liquid was seeping out from under the oven door. It was the putrid fluid from my decomposing body.I thought Daddy would panic, or at least figure out something was terribly wrong. But he didn't.Instead, he was stunned for just a second before his face twisted with pure fury. Trembling with rage, he pointed at the stain and snapped, "Julian Johnson!"Julian Johnson, I told you to stay in there and think about what you did, and you actually relieved yourself in there just to disgust me? How can you be so vile and shameless?"No, Daddy, it wasn't like that.I circled around him frantically, trying to explain that I hadn't tried to disgust him—I was just dea

The door swung open, revealing two police officers standing beside Mommy, whom I hadn't seen in a long time.Mommy's face was ashen. The moment she saw Daddy, she stormed inside and confronted him."Peter, what nonsense have you been spouting in the parents' group chat? The kindergarten told me Julian hasn't been to school in days! What have you done with him?"Seeing Mommy ignited every ounce of resentment Daddy had bottled up inside. "Charlotte, you've got some nerve bringing the police to my house!" he spat. "You two heartless wretches are teaming up to make a fool of me, aren't you?"The lead officer cut Daddy off."Mr. Johnson, we need to ask you a few questions regarding Julian's disappearance. When was the last time you saw him?" he asked sternly.Daddy suddenly charged toward the kitchen, yelling at the top of his lungs, "Julian, haven't you caused enough trouble? Get out here right now! Are you happy now that your mother and the police are here to watch me become a lau

Daddy's breathing turned ragged. He stumbled backward and slammed into the wall.Grandma let out a choked gasp, instinctively throwing her hand over her mouth. "No… this can't be happening…" Daddy stared fixedly at the charred, blackened remains at his feet. "Wasn't Julian just sulking and giving me the silent treatment?" he said with trembling lips. "This can't be him!"Daddy suddenly went wild, frantically searching the house like a man possessed. He yanked back the living room curtains, then threw open the wardrobe doors."Julian, stop messing around! Come out right now! You think I don't know this is one of your pranks? Who are you trying to scare with a fake prop like this?"The female officer looked at the unraveling man with pity in her eyes. "Mr. Johnson, we've searched every inch of this house. Julian is nowhere to be found."Daddy's voice faltered. Then, choking back tears, he said, "Julian, if you come out right now, I'll forgive you and take you to get strawberry c

Chapter 6

That sentence fell like a thunderbolt, pinning everyone in place. Only then did Mommy realize there was a strange little boy in the house.Her eyes drifted down to the toy in Dustin's hand—it was my favorite toy. Then, her gaze shifted back to the charred remains inside the oven. Understanding dawned on her in a flash. Her eyes flared with fury as she rounded on Daddy. "I know I was wrong for cheating on you, but Julian is your son! How could you take your hatred for me out on him?"She pointed a trembling finger at Daddy. "How could you be so cruel? What kind of monster locks a child that small inside an oven?"Stung by her words, Daddy shot to his feet, hysterically shouting back, "Oh, so now you care about Julian? Did you ever think about him when you were cheating on me? All those cakes you brought home for him were just an excuse so you could sneak off with your lover, weren't they?"I curled up in the corner, staring blankly at the chaos unfolding before me."That's en

"We found a set of clear fingerprints on the oven's power dial. After testing them against our database, we confirmed they belong to Dustin," the officer said grimly. The officer's words went off like a bomb in Daddy's brain. He had brought a killer into his own home, and now I was dead because of it.Grandma drew in a sharp breath, staring in absolute shock at Dustin, who was still lying in the hospital bed looking like a helpless angel. "I brought a monster into our house, and he killed Julian," Daddy murmured, turning slowly toward Dustin. A devastating storm of rage, disbelief, and suffocating guilt churned in his eyes. "Why? Why did you kill Julian?"Dustin shrank back under Daddy's terrifying gaze and retorted in his childish voice, "You were the one who said Julian and his mommy both deserved to die. I was only trying to help you."As he went on, a wave of selfish indignation rose inside him, his voice pitching higher. "Besides, I had no idea turning it on would kill hi

Chapter 8

Daddy suddenly started slapping himself in a frenzied rage.With every strike, he screamed at the top of his lungs, "It's all my fault! I'm the one who tore up Julian's drawing! I'm a monster!"Grandma, who had been silently following him from behind, couldn't bear to watch any longer. She rushed forward and forcefully grabbed his arms, pulling him into a tight hug. "Peter, stop torturing yourself! It breaks my heart to see you like this!"Daddy sank to his knees, clutching his head as low, agonizing sobs tore from deep within his chest. Finally, overcome by grief and exhaustion, he collapsed onto the ground and passed out. Under Grandma's devoted care, Daddy slowly started to calm down. Except he spent most of his days sitting alone in the kitchen, hugging the oven and whispering to it. "Julian, don't be scared. I'm here."Mommy came by a few times. Every single time she set foot in the house, Daddy would go wild, smashing anything within reach just to force her to leave.
