Felix’s encounter with the monster
As I came back home from my walk with Safie and Agartha. I was shocked by hearing my father scream out. “Great God!” I hear from inside the cottage. I quickly hurried with swiftness to take care of what could have possibly been an emergency to take care of my blind father. I burst through the door to see this huge and disgusting monster grab my father’s arm. In pure horror, I can’t believe my eyes seeing this creature and how it looks. I turn to see that Safie has gone and Agartha also tremble to see this creature. As quickly as I had to make my move and try to save my father. I grabbed whatever I had and quickly attacked this beast before my father would get injured. I tackled this great monster to the ground with force and started to beat him with a stick. I looked at him with a fury of protecting my family. He didn’t look normal to me, he had weird features that I’ve never seen. But I continued to attack this monster before I realized my attacks looked like it didn’t affect him but until he left the cottage in fear. My encounter with this beast was the most horrifying experience that I’ve never felt. I try to talk with my father and my sister Agartha to see if both were alright.
So the context of this paragraph is the idea of Felix being a man of the house. He is taking care of his father and his sister. But after coming from a walk with his love Safie and his sister Agartha, he hears his father exclaim out something, he’s quick to his aid and not understanding what’s going on. He acts upon saving his father from an intruder that he isn’t exactly sure what is. He saves his father and sister after he has the monster leave the cottage and to reconcile with his father and sister.
I think this shows that we as family jump into situations without thinking because if we see our loved ones in danger we act first and think later. This is an important trait to show the bond of family.
This reminded me of our class interaction on Tuesday, even though the monster did horrible and terrifying things he was not homicidal. He did not sought out to kill because it clearly says, ” But I continued to attack this monster before I realized my attacks looked like it didn’t affect him”. He wanted to scare them and when he knew that Felix would not give up in order to protect his family, the monster left in fear. If you are a homicidal killer, nothing as this would scare you off easily.
