Chapter Title:  About Me

 

 

          The rain always sounds like a million drums going at once.  They never stop until the heavens tell them to.  At least, that’s what I thought.  It’s always hard to manage your life when something inside of you is digging through your heart.  My mind always wonders through darkness.  I’ve never had anyone there for me, even in my younger years.  Hi; I’m Brandon.  In case you haven’t noticed, I’ve been alone for many years now.  Sixteen now and still counting.  It’s almost hard to keep track anymore.  I will soon find out though my life will change forever.  A good change will come.  I will be somebody.  Someone.  Something.  A Digi-Destined……

 

            It’s the first day of June on a hot rainy Wednesday morning.  School was almost out.  Every boy and girl is excited for that final day of school.  I’m not.  I dread that day.  I hate it with a passion.  You see, every time I go home, I feel empty.  It’s almost like I’m not even there anymore.  My mom is a crack addict and my dad is on the verge of drinking his liver out.  They both fight all the time; saying that they hate each other, never wanting to be with each other, if it wasn’t for me, they wouldn’t be with each other; just stuff like that.  Basically, the only reason that they’re together is getting a divorce is expensive.  Hell, I’m barely in school.  I’m paying for basically all of my school fees.  I work two jobs:  Speedway at night on the weekends and a small baking place downtown called DoBo’s.  Speedway only pays $6.50 and DoBo’s pays $6.80.  It’s always tiring but it pays the bills and my schooling at home, I guess.  Since I don’t have my license, I have to either ride my bike or walk.  Now, which one would you choose?

 

            I hate school.  If it wasn’t for my own mind, I wouldn’t be living now.  I basically have no friends but they all try to act like they’re friends with me.  They’re what you all call as “posers.”  The only time they talk to you is if they want some homework done or a project for Biology done by tomorrow.  I just try to ignore them.  It always works.  All I need is my mind and my soul to keep me going.  But some day, I’m going to need a lot more than that.  I wouldn’t know it yet, but it will come soon enough.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Welp, I hoped ya’ll like this chapter.  Don’t worry, there will be more. Trust me.  As for now, I’m outie like a bellybutton!  Adios!

Chapter Title:  Someone’s Watching

 

 

            First period is always the longest.  That’s because it’s my worst subject:  History.  I absolutely hate it.
