A/N: I didn’t know what to do with him or how to involve him in the story so I panicked and killed him. Other entries in this verse:
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8324351/1/Dont_Look When I woke up this morning, Father was in bed sick. Mom and Granny Pinako were tending to him. I didn't know if his sickness was bad or not and Mom wouldn't tell me. She just sent Ed, Winry, and I out to pick the berries from the bushes that were out growing on the far edge of the Cullum's property.
We spent practically the entire day out there. We collected berries and played with the other children in our district. When we tried to go home, hungry for lunch, Mrs. Cullum told us that our parents were busy and that we could have lunch at her house. I was fine with that, but I was a little confused and worried for my father. But my worry was easily brushed off when Michael started a game of Hide-and-Seek.
Around evening, after being fed dinner, the three of us finally went back home. Father was sleeping on the bed and for some reason my mother was crying. Me and Ed went to her side and asked her what was wrong. She just took one look at us and started sobbing harder, before pulling us into her arms.
We weren’t told that our father was gone till a few days later, when our mother was told that the members of district nine were working together to save up money for a funeral.
That had also made her burst out crying.
