55. Play with me

(Henry's POV)

You have ever seen a crane? Everyone should, I suppose.

Seen the cement blocks all the way up? They are there as a counterweight.

Ever seen 'Final Destination'?

Ever seen an accident so horrific, so absurd, that it is just unbelievable?

Ever seen your parents being crushed like insects? 

I have. 

Henrietta and I didn't have the dumbest of luck for our parents to be stuck by the cement blocks of the mentioned crane. 

No, the cement blocks of the crane fell on the newly built skyscraper construct, for which the crane was there in the first place. And the debris from the construction—that it was that killed our parents in front of our eyes.

Unluckily enough, I would say. 

That was the first part of how I lost my family. A dumb accident like in a movie that made people cringe with mirth.
