The Spook Origins

Anger management Part 1

did you remember your toothbrush jack?"

"yeah mom", I said annoyed. She asked me the same question multiple times.

"Don't get annoyed with me mister", she said with a playful smile. I couldn't help but laugh. Soon my dad walked into the room.

"All set Jack?"

"YES!!", I said, super excited for the sleepover.

"Well since you're already we just have to wait for Mile's father to come over to pick you up", Dad said with a smile. Excited I ran to the window kneeling on the couch waiting for Mile's dad to show up. Hearing footsteps my mom sat right next to me laughing at my childish behavior before grabbing me into a bone crunching hug.

"Never change Jack, would hate for you to grow up"

-----------------------------------

"FUCK!!", I yelled waking up in a sweat. Breathing heavily I felt myself shaking with anger.

Strange to wake up in a fit of anger? well fuck you then. For two days I've been having dreams of that night. The night that took everything from me . The same one that's turned me into this...FUCK!! Getting out of bed I went to take a shower. My thoughts have been jumbled lately with my parents' murderer waking up! Why didn't I end him!?

"Jack, is...everything ok?". I stopped in my tracks hearing Aunt may speak. Massaging my head I took a deep breath trying to calm down but honestly unsuccessfully.

"I don't know aunt may! I just found out my family's killer decided to wake up when he would have been better off DEAD!!!", I yelled. Aunt May gave me a sad look and I instantly regretted yelling at her.

"I just..need some space right now", I said heading for the bathroom for a shower.

Turning on the hot water I let it wash over me letting my thoughts take over. Why did he have to wake up? Doubt the police will be able to prosecute him with anything. Didn't gather evidence to prove he was guilty of anything when I went after him. Though I did take apart his small criminal enterprise which did help me calm down a bit. Could always head over to the hospital he's at and put him back in a coma. That's all I could think about is what he took.

Maybe school will get my mind off things. Just really hope nothing else pisses me off today. I'm not in the mood and I've got a short fuse because of it. Getting out of the shower I got ready for my day heading downstairs having breakfast. Sitting at the table I saw aunt may in the living room staring off into space with a worried look. I still felt bad about how I snapped on her earlier. It was out of line. Finishing my breakfast I went to leave but decided to apologize before I left.

"Aunt May I'm sorry I snapped on you. Just, trying to work through everything going on right now. It wasn't right and I'm sorry again. Love you aunt may", I said feeling guilty.

"Just promise me you won't go back Jack. You've done so well lately and I can't take seeing you closing your doors again closing yourself off. It hurt me to see you in so much pain unable to help. I can't see you like that again", May said with tears forming. Looking at her I felt my guilt become worse. I should have known she was hurt the most when I was like that. Walking over I gave Aunt May a hug. yes I'm giving a hug fuck off!

"I promise I won't lose myself again May. Wouldn't dare put you through that again. Thank you though for being there even if I wasn't grateful for it"

"Just don't forget who you are Jack", May said, calming down.

"I'll see you later", I said, walking out to catch the bus.

At the bus stop I felt my thoughts going back to him. I really need something to take my mind off of this or I may just break something or hurt someone out of the blue. Soon Peter showed up but I think he noticed my mood because he stood in silence. The silence was starting to get to me.
