When I was six years old, my parents were still together and that was the bad part of it.
I heard as my parents yell at each other.
I peeked through the door and I saw how my mom slapped my dad and that wasn't the first time she laid a hand on him.
My dad furious and I expected him to do something but he just started to get his clothes out.
"W-what are you doing?" she panicked.
He just continued to pack his things.
I saw him come out of the room and I quickly hid under the table.
"Zac! Come here" she cried.
"Brooklyn where are you?" my dad called me.
I got out of the table and he hugged me.
"I'll come back for you" he said.
My mom (Angelina Jolie) then snatched me away from him.
"Stay away from her" she said, wiping her tears.
He just looked at her and left.
My mom then fell on her knees, crying.
I dropped some tears.
"Brooklyn men are evil. Promise me you will never fall in love. The only thing love does is destroy you. Look at me, look at how your dad left." she said and I just stared at her.
"Brooklyn promise me" she grabbed my arm putting a grip.
"I promise" I said.
I now look back and realized that at that age, I didn't really know what love was.
