I don’t know where to start but it seems that problems arose after my trip to Manila last week and affects my decisions at work and to myself. After I came home from my trip, I found out that my dad has acted so weird. He started to gather crap metals, junk items and other old things around the house and sell them at the junk shop near us. First, I thought it was okay since he is cleaning the surroundings but later we were so surprised because he decided to demolish the gate and fences. So, we asked him why would he do that, and he started yelling that no one will ever stop him from doing it because it is his house and he can do anything about it. His decision will be followed and we don’t have the rights to stop him. Okay we tried to stay calm and let him do what he wanted but just this morning I woke up early because I heard my Dad and 2 Brothers yelling at each other and they were quarreling about demolishing the fences and gate. I rushed down stairs and was so surprised that they hit each other, I tried to relax and stop them but I can’t take it anymore, I also shouted at him an almost hit my father. My dad is shouting outside the house about this and that, that we didn’t respect him anymore, that we decide on ourselves without his notification or even stop his decision because we thought we are right and he is wrong.
He acted weird since he got stroked twice last year and always been into this kind of situation with him, but this morning was a bit crazy, because he almost killed my brother because he run after my brother with a bolo in his hand and shouted “I will kill you!” we were so scared and I shouted and ask for help to my neighbors for he might kill my brother. Thank God he didn’t catch my brother. We stayed outside the house and leave him there at the house while he is yelling and shouting, complaining that we didn’t love him and we didn’t respected him and everything until he got relaxed and started crying. It was so embarrassing to our neighbors since they heard everything and they saw what happened. Later, he said he will leave us and mom because he can’t take it anymore. Because according to him we treated him as useless because he is old and he got a stroke that made him unable to walk straight and fast.
He acted that way because he thinks that we treated him useless because of his sickness. But no we didn’t. He just can’t take it that he has sickness and he cannot do the things he usually does. But he has been acting badly ever since before his stroke strike him. He is a nagger father, he even go out with a woman and we were so sad about that. But still we tried to keep our cool with that but sometimes we can’t keep it and that’s the reason of the problem in the family.
After that crazy situation happened, he went out and the tension around the house was back to normal, I am not sure what will happen when he went back. My brother didn’t go to his work and my Teacher sister didn’t go to school today. They were terrified about what just had happened and can’t take it to their work. While I am here inside my room thinking about the situation and the decisions I have made for my work.
I hope and pray that everything will be okay and that my decisions are right decisions.
