Giraffes

The Start

I take my bag and I walk out the door.

I am ready for this.

I got through the door and I am so proud. This adventure will be easier than I thought.

I am so excited.

I take the metro, but I have no money. So I give the person a marker and he lets me through the turner thing.

I get on the train and then I see him.

I scream.

But just as I try to get out, the train pulls away and we are separated again.

I was so close. But now so far. I mustn't let this put me down. For my spirits shall be lifted.

The train is fast and loud. Vrrrrreoooooommmmmqkfuaudiciiwuzhxiwodjeiidisiwiwu. Loud. Loud. Loud.

Owewww. It hurts my ears but I must live through this pain. It will be okay.

It been a long time since I've heard my fathers voice in my head. I think he's finally left and passed away. It will be okay.

I repeat that over and over again. It will be okay. It will be okay. It will be okay. IT WILL BE OKAY.

IT WILL BE OKAY

I start screaming, "IT WILL BE OKAY."

Heads turn and I smile, knowing I have given them words of encouragement.

It feels good to make people happy. And I love the feeling.

I decide to get off of the metro.

Vrrooooonaofiaydiakajmxmmmmwifhkwkeodufjej. The metro drives away. Wkcisjktjsoodiiaidis.

Loud.

Ouch.

Then I walk on.
