"I don't want to set the world on fire
I just want to start a flame in your heart
In my heart I have but one desire
And that one is you
No other will do~" a song played from a radio echoing through the living room,
... "Aww.. honey stop it!" Antonio's mother laughed as her husband kept kissing her gently,
"Mmmm noo.. maybe I don't wanna ~" he teased before kissing her again, "happy Valentine's Day sweetheart," Antonio's dad said before handing her, her gift, "hmmm.. I wonder what's inside!" She said jokingly as she opened it, it was a cute red velvet cake, she kissed her husband deeply,

"...." Antonio peeked behind his door, seeing his parents having such a good time and kissing each other, hearing a music playing in distance, he felt disgusted before gently shutting his door, "eugh! So disgusting.. I hate it when my parents does it" he pouted as he decided he'd wanna play with his toys for a awhile, so he approached his desk top, getting on his knees as he gently pulled out his toy box from underneath his desk top, But it was different.

Not his usual toy box, it was a gift from his mother and his father,, something he always wanted. a porcelain angel doll, his eyes shined, he read a note that was attached on it, "Dear Antonio, our sweet Angel boy, I hope you enjoyed this wonderful gift me and your father got for you, it was a pretty penny but anything to make you smile my sweet loving boy, and some more money for that tooth you lost.. we love you with all our hearts and soul, happy Valentine's Day sweetheart, from yours truly, - mother and father"

He stared at it, his eyes shined like glitter as he felt giddy suddenly and unwrapped the porcelain doll carefully.. before placing it carefully on his night stand, he smiled and giggled. Before he put the plastic box in his mini trash can.

He opened his door gently and tried to find his mother and father, but they where no were to be found, he soon went upstairs only to hear moaning and panting, a bed squeaking.

His eyes widened, "mama?.." he approached the dark dim room only to see something he shouldn't have to see in his innocent eyes, his smile disappeared.

As he sat outside and waited for them to be done. But they weren't, Antonio was worried if they where fighting, tears rise in his eyes as he ran off crying.. the sound slowly fading.. he slammed the door to his room and cried. After awhile he dried his eyes and went to check once more, only silence was filled.. he decided in mean time he could stop by a nearby shop with the money he received, he put his clothes on. It was a oversized grey-bluish sweater, and a black shirt underneath and some sweat pants. He put on his fancy shoes his family got him, and tied his short black messy hair in a up ponytail, and moved some of his messy bangs out his cute purple pale eyes. He forced up a smile in the mirror, the missing tooth made it cuter. "Mama is gonna feel all better after this gift! And Daddy!" Antonio thought before running out the house on his own.

He ran across the street. And headed to the small valentines shop, he entered. He saw another boy, two actually. One who looked around his age but a bit younger with his mother. He was holding his mothers hand, and looked like a dirty sick white fluffy dog. His hair was short and messy, he had dark pale red eyes, and white eyelashes. Pale skin, he looked rather natural dyed, picking it up from his mother definitely. She seem to be waiting in line along with the boy next to her, he stared at Antonio with sunk lifeless eyes, and a depressed look. Wearing an oversized white t-shirt and some jeans but no shoes. He looked like an Angel to Antonio, he saw something poking underneath that boys shirt.. he couldn't tell what it was but he didn't pay any mind to it, as for the other boy, he was with his mother too, he was licking a heart lollipop and has a Bob cut, brown hair, green olive eyes, wearing some cute clothes.. and jumping up and down while holding onto his own mothers hand, it made Antonio felt shamed and bad,
he wished his mother was here with him, some of the people in line was being quite rude to Antonio,  "move the hell out of the way kid." Antonio was a bit sensitive and did so, "can I get in front of line please?" Another person said, he was trying to be kind, just like his mother told him, "be kind to others and they'll be kind to you too"  Antonio waited awhile in line. Before he realized.. he had to find a gift, he got embarrassed before running out the line.. and checked how much money he had on him, he could get only two things. He frowned, he wanted to get his mother two things and his dad one, he sighed before picking out something, a cute teddy bear and a actual rose attached to a bag of Hershey kisses, he then ran back to the line but someone cut in front of him, he muttered that was where he stood, the person ignored and shoved him out the way as he soon fell backwards. And bumped into a shelf, almost knocking everything down, the cashier lectured him and told the young boy to pick the stuff up, he did so, and put things back, he had a bruise on his back and a scratch from the shelf now,
he frowned and waited patiently in line.
