"I wanna see the world when I stop breathing." ~ Billie Eilish
Octavius's POV
"Daddy, I want to go to Paris, to see the big tower," Marco said while tugging at the bottom of my shirt. I looked down at him with a smile. "Sure thing bud, I'll take you there soon." He giggled and ran off to his room to get ready to go to my parents' house.
Why did I let him go? I should've let him stay.
"I'm sorry Boss, we couldn't save them." Dr. Russ said while holding his clipboard close to his chest. I nodded while I left the room. I walked slowly to my room as I thought about how all my family was killed in one fire. I sat on my bed and clenched my heart as pain coursed through me.
A sob passed my chapped lips as I mourned the loss of my family. When I get my hands on the person who killed my family, they were going to pay the price with their life.
...
I sat the picture of my family back on my desk as the urge to scream and cry overwhelmed me. All the pain I endured, I will convey these feelings onto the person who killed my family.
