My Kinsman, Major Molineux Part 2
Finding the kinsman was of utmost importance for Robin on this frolicsome night in the city. Robin, feeling dreary of the city life, decided upon himself to bring about his homecoming to the farm from the days of his youth. Upon leaving the church and Major Molineux behind, Robin fulfilled his yearning for his childhood. Robin has left New England in the dusk, and is almost to the farm of his memories. Before reaching the farm, Robin decided to wait until dawn to return home. He slowly crept upon the unpopulated streets of nightfall. A few aged structures stood beside the maples as if the two were long-time acquaintances, helping the other in its times of trouble and doubt. The dark skies reminded Robin of his family: his little brother Damien, his parents Tom and Martha, and his big sister Barbara. Oh how unappreciatively he treated his family! Robin started to reminisce deeper of his memories back in the day. Tom, the days before his internals were incessantly drowning due to an exorbitant amount whiskey or rum, taught Robin lessons on life. One day, the lesson given to Robin was to load and fire an arrow. Tom’s teaching ability reflected unto Robin’s ability: Robin had almost no aim with the bow, but powered the arrows to an extreme sense. His arrows fired in every which way across the property with such power it would seem as if God Himself carried the arrow. As Robin shot arrows outside, Barbara practiced her horseback riding, deep in her own solitude. One of Tom’s arrows carried by God became miscarried by the Devil. The arrow redirected in the completely opposite direction and sliced the back of Barbara’s mouth and stuck out behind her head, killing her instantly. After this incident, Tom became an angry, drunken father. Martha, on the other hand, never knew of Barbara’s disappearance. She left the farm with few of her belongings and took Damien
