The Perfect Family - Creepypasta

The sun was beginning to rise, and Erick knew it. He got up carefully, avoiding waking his wife, who was sleeping in their bed. Today was a happy day for him. Why? In a few days, they would have been married for three years.

Before going to work, he looked out the window to appreciate the beautiful scenery, the birdsong, and the sun.

But the Moment didn't last long. His son, Tom, woke up, and his wife Rita knew it. She picked up their son while singing him a lullaby. Erick said goodbye to Rita with a sweet, brief kiss. He went downstairs and locked the door. He didn't want anything like last time to happen to them.

And he arrived at work. It wasn't that big a deal, but with that, he could support his family of three. He greeted all his coworkers, even the ones he didn't like... it was strange, his coworkers told themselves. The others didn't care whether he greeted them or not; they didn't care; He was like another dog looking for attention.

-"Are you okay?"

A construction worker asked him. ; it was the first time he'd ever greeted him.

-"I'm fine, thanks for asking,"

Erick said. His partner found the question odd. "Isn't it obvious?" He decided to let it go and went to the construction site he'd been shown. It wouldn't take long to finish, so he'd leave earlier than usual.

8:45 PM

It was time to go home. He was tired, in a state that could be described as... exhausted. He opened the door, signaling that he had arrived, home to his sweet home, to his family.

-"I'm home, honey!" Erick shouted.

An awkward silence filled the house; it was common for him. He went into the living room and saw his wife cooking. She was beautiful, with pale skin, slightly disheveled hair, and a look that radiated tranquility.

He slowly approached her to hug her, something he had done frequently lately. Although he hadn't finished cooking yet, he didn't care.

-"Did you miss me?"

He whispered in her ear, brushing back a few strands of hair that were bothering her.

She didn't say anything, just let out a few quiet laughs, which for him were the best way to enjoy her ears.

Since his wife hadn't finished cooking yet, they took the opportunity to also make a strawberry cake, Rita's favorite. They both seemed very happy together, while their son Tom was still sleeping; he was a very well-behaved baby.

They sat together. It was a sweet evening for the two. They chatted a little about their daily routine, commenting on how things were going until 10:00 p.m. The time flew by. They collected the dishes and washed them. They went upstairs, and before going to sleep, Erick didn't miss a few hugs for his wife.

A new day was beginning. Today was Erick's day off, so he took the opportunity to buy his wife some chocolates... He went downstairs, and as soon as he opened the door, three men jumped on him. They were police officers. He knew it as soon as he heard a video. Clenching his fists, one of them said
