26 Chapter 26: Connard's life story Part 1

He came from a farmer's family. They were happy before and even though they lacked money they were happy as they were complete.

He remembered his father saying, " 'It's not your fault if you are born poor, it will only become your sin if you died a poor man'. But son, remember, being rich is not only measured by money and treasures. There are many things that a man can be rich with, such as love, family, friends and happiness. Always remember that", he said while patting Nicolas shoulder.

He remembered his mother which always prepared their food as he accompanied his father on the farm after he came back from his school. The field will always be field with laughter as he was playing inside their farmland as his father will play with him while his mother is laughing while looking at them and she waits inside their shed which is in the middle of the field that serves as their resting place once they were exhausted from plowing the field.

But, these peaceful times didn't last long.....

When he was ten years old, a Governor from their province visited their county. The governor is a man nearing his fifties and is known for being a lascivious man.

He committed r*pe in many women in their province, but, it became only rumors as once the info leaks the man who leaked it will vanish that same day. Also, no one reported his crime to the police as they know that he also has connections inside it and he is the most powerful and wealthiest man in their province.

As he was walking around a farmland, he saw Connard's mother planting a rice grain on the field.

Connard's mother has a tan complexion due to being always outside but, you could see that she is very beautiful. She has long black hair and black eyes. Her body, though she is wearing cheap clothes but a conservative one, you could see that she is not that skinny though she is thin. She also has a voluptuous chest, which attracts this lascivious man.

The Governor approached her and asked her about her name. At first the woman hesitated but she was persuaded by this Governor.

As Connard's father saw that his wife is very unwilling to talk to this man, he approached her and politely told the governor that they still have worked to do and so they needs to be excuse. As he could not offend this Governor, he said it as politely as possible but he didn't see the displease look from this governor's eyes.

The Governor walked out that day but, they didn't expect that on that same day, that night as Connard were sleeping on his room, he was awakened by a scream coming from their living room. Since, he doesn't know about what happened on the field earlier as he is in his school, he was confused about the sounds he heard outside and thought that maybe his parents were fighting.

He opened his door slowly and peak from it. As he is only a ten year old kid, he didn't know what is happening right now. From the small opening in his door, he didn't expect that he will see a gory scene unfold in front of his eyes.

In their living room, he saw his father being stabbed by a knife by two men. In front of his father, the governor is currently pushing his member inside his mother's body while his mother is crying as she saw her husband being killed in front of her eyes and from the humiliation he is experiencing right now.

As these scenes unfold in a ten-year-old Connard, it became imprinted in his mind that triggered a psychopathic emotion inside of him. He stood rooted from his room as he couldn't move his muscles from shock as he saw his father being butchered. He vowed that one day he will get his revenge on these men in front of him.

Then the men get his father's body and went outside the house and also the governor dragged his mother outside and took her to somewhere he doesn't know and he didn't see his father's body from then on as he deduced that these men buried his father somewhere faraway.

He doesn't know what happened to him that day as he stood rooted on his ground not moving an inch and only went back to his reverie when his mother went back to their house and took their clothes and dragged him outside. He feigned ignorance from the commotion last night and ask where his father is but his mother stayed silent and just dragged him outside. There he saw a car waiting for them outside with the Governor inside it. He doesn't know what happened but his mother just moves mechanically and lifelessly while they started to enter the car. He just stayed silent during this whole ordeal and just observed his surroundings quietly but, what they didn't know is that, something is not quite the same with this ten-year old boy.

The Governor is quite amused by this boy who doesn't even ask a thing about what is happening right and he seems to be too calm about the things that unfold in front of him. He didn't mind this boy's weird actions and just told his chauffeur to start driving the car away from this dilapidated house.

Since that day, his mother became that Governor's mistress. He and his mother started to live in a much better house compared to the last one they did which are made of nipa house. They are now living in an apartment which is near the Governor's residence but it was only small, like around fifteen square meters only though it was made of concrete.

Connard decided to feign innocence from then on, biding his time to take revenge on the Governor.

When he was thirteen years old, his mother were sold in a prostitute house by the same Governor as he already found a much younger mistress so, he get rid of Connard's mother.

Since that day, another hell has come upon their family. Connard decided to stop his studies and do some odd jobs as he thought that maybe through this he could redeem his mother from that place. But, he never had the chance to redeem his mother.

When he was sixteen, his mother died of AIDS. And this was the last straw that triggered his psychopathic mind.

That night, he went to the Governor's house and proceeds to do his long-term plan of killing him ever since he planned it since he was ten.

He stealthily sneaks inside the Governor's house. As he already observed this house for a hundred times already before, he knows where the CCTV cameras are hidden and where the security guards always patrolled the area.

He also knows where that Governor's room is as he and his mother went in this house before although only once.

He also saw before that they rarely use the back door in this house. He unlocked it using pins as this is one of the skills that he had mastered before, just for this very same day.

The house is quite big as it is mansion. It was dark inside as everyone seems to be asleep already. His only light is the one coming from the moonlight.

He went into the Governor's room which is situated on the far end of the second floor of this house. He unlocked the door and there he saw the Governor sleeping and beside him is his new mistress which based on his info is only twenty-one years old.

Connard already had a plan in his mind about this problem. He plans to kill these two at the same time. He reached for the two knives in his pocket. He counts one to three as this is also the first time for him to kill someone, he was hesitating. His hands which are gripping the knives started to shiver from fear.

But, once he remembered what happened to his family, his anger ignited and without any hesitation, he stabbed the two in their heart then twists the knives so that they would die immediately. Without any resistance the two didn't even have the chance to open their eyes again to see their attacker.

As Connard is wearing a glove even if the police saw the knife, they wouldn't be able to trace it to him but he still took the knives with him just to be safe. He stealthily went away like he never came inside the house.

On that same day, he went back to their dilapidated house before. It was full of cobwebs and dust but he was happy as this is the only place where he can relieve his happy memories with his family.
