 The
third day of Chinese New Year, I discovered that Zheng Feng was having drugs
secretly inside his room and I have some words with him. This made him to be
very angry and he took a chopper out from the kitchen that later chop on my
head.
Some claimed that drug is like that demon came out from the forbidden Pandora
Box that will first took away your money, then you rationality, and lastly,
everything you that ever had if you open the box of Pandora. |
Zheng Feng is my rebellious son that the only thing that he will do is
things that I forbid him to do. I always have no idea on what and how he
thinks and lastly, I have no choice but let him go out for some hardship
himself with hope that he will eventually understand my heart, a heart of a
farther.
My wife, suffer from depression after the birth of my fourth child, hence, I
have the responsibilities to be the bread winner as well as take care of my
4 children, which I actually neglected them and have be absented in most of
the time their life. Zhang Feng is my third son, that was a very famous
"rebel kids" in our village. He never completed his secondary school and had
substituted it with fighting and involving with various troubles on the
street.
After some days on the street, I sent him to Kuala Lumpur to learn some
skills that are hoped to keep him alive in the future. However, the
relatives of mine in Kuala Lumpur soon informed me that Zheng Feng had been
arrested in charge of property (the neighbor's motorcycle) stealing. He was
then been fined and was lucky to not go into the jail.
After this incident, I discovered that Zheng Feng is a bit weird, and money
that I kept in the house keep disappearing. He finally admitted that he is
the one that stole the money when I asked him directly.
However, this confession of him didn’t make turn over to be a decent person,
but instead, he became worse, he begged, steal, lend money everywhere ad to
almost everyone in our village and soon, everyone dislike him and avoid him.
I must admit that, this make me very shame. Sometime, I don’t even dare to
go out on the street.
I had been tortured by this son of my, I and my other family members have
no, not even one day of peaceful life. And lastly, I have no choice but to
hand Zheng Feng to the police, but this didn’t help much because he managed
to come out from the lockup two weeks later.
With not even one slip of hope, I forced him to the
Rumah Victory Rehabilitation Centre
and under the care of the tutor and volunteer workers inside the centre,
Zheng Feng, magically changed gradually to a better person.
Today, Zheng Feng is no longer a shame of my life, he became filial, take
good care of me and my wife and he always help those who are needed in the
village.
Lastly, I want to express my gratitude to Rumah Victory that had not only
driven the demon of drug away from my son, but bring back a new life for him
as well. There are nothing in my life that are more valuable and more happy
that getting back a son that I had once to think that he had been lost
forever.
