“It’s been along time and still I have nothing, I have nothing to show for all this time, no Championship, no full time FDS spot, nothing, All these years I have trained I have practised, I’ve put my body on the line, but not once have I asked myself Why? Why am I doing this? Am I trying to impress my son? Make up for lost times? I don’t know why I’m doing this but I know I’ll carry on until the job is finished”
David was still tired, he reached to his side and picked the bottle of lager, he took a long swig of it. David picked up the remote from his side and pressed play on it the opening credits of WFWF SuperBrawl IV played, the opening credits came on as Jake opened the door and came into the room
Jake: “Dad will you play soccer with me”[/color]
Dave: “Sorry son Daddy’s busy[/color]
David said filling his face with chips and watching TV
Jake: “No you’re not you’re just sitting on your fat ass”
David looked angry
Dave: “What did you just say”
Jake walked off upset and slammed the door, Dave pulled himself up from the chair and ran outside but he couldn’t see Jake. Suddenly he heard Jake he looked around the corner and could see Jake sitting behind the bin sobbing his eyes out.
Dave: “I’m sorry son”
Jake: “No your not, you just want to watch stupid wrestling”
Dave: “Look I’m sorry son, I’ll play soccer if you want”
Jake: “No it doesn’t matter”
Dave: “Come on son”
Jake: “Just leave me alone”
Dave: “I’m Sorry”
Jake “Just Leave Me Alone!”
David walked off he felt ashamed and guilty, he sat down grabbed the remote and threw it at the television. He ran his hand through his hair started breathing heavily
Dave: “Aghhh!”
He got up and looked to his side to see Jake standing in the doorway
Jake: “What’s wrong Dad”
Dave: “Nothing son daddy’s just going through a rough patch.
Jake: “Sorry dad”
Dave: “It’s not your fault son”
Jake: ”Yeah it is”
Dave: “what makes you say that”
Jake: "The Voices"
Dave: “What voices”
Jake: “I promised I wouldn’t tell”
Dave: “But this is important”
Jake: “The voices in my head said you were happy before I woke up”
David: “Of course not”
Jake: “They said you wished I had died”
David: “The voices lied son”
Jake: “They said you’d say that”
David: “That’s because it’s the truth”
Jake: “They say you don’t like me because they say it’s my fault Mummy’s gone”
David: “Don’t listen to the voices there lying”
Jake suddenly cried and ran upstairs he went into Dave’s room and looked through the draws. He pulled out a book and inside it was a gun! Jake heard footsteps and quickly put the gun back into the old oak draw sliding it shut he then ran into his room and shut the door
Voices: “why does Daddy have a gun Jake”
Jake: “I don’t know”
Voices: “It’s all your fault Jake”
Jake: “No it’s not”
Voices: But Daddy told me so”
Jake: “I don’t believe you”
Voices: “But it’s true Jake, I’m your only friend, I’m the only one you can trust”
Jake: “Shut Up!”
Voices: “Fear your Dad Jake”
Jake: “I love Dad”
Voices: “Well it’s a shame he doesn’t share the feeling”
Suddenly the voices stopped and the door opened and there stood David.
David: “Come here son”
The two embraced in a hug but David seemed scared
Jake: ‘I love… you Dad”
He Trembled
