Chapter 1
The streets are a rough place.
When you think it's as bad as it gets your wrong. Everyday I spend on the streets the more useless I seem. Everyday I would sit in that same spot hoping that tomorrow will be my day, it never happens. The worst thing is that humiliation when people walk past in the streets and laugh or stare at you funny, you feel worthless like you an rat. Everyday I wake up and beg for money at the tube. Everyday I make only enough for food and most days I go without.
Sometimes I get into fights, I don't mean to! Drunken strangers walk past me and treat me horribly and I get really annoyed. Sometimes if I am lucky I get to go to the doctors, they are very kind there. They heal my painful wounds. I get to go to the doctors once every year and that day is usually my highlight of my year. I don really do much you see, sometimes I do voluntary work handing out leaflet but I don't get paid. Yeah it's lousy but I don't have any qualifications and all that. So it's really hard to get a half decent job.
