mini-series pt 2 : verse T-4

Alright, let's do this one last time I guess... 

My name is Kim Taehyung.

I was bitten by a radioactive spider, and for the last 6 months, I have been the one and only spider man. I think you know the rest. 

Finally got my driver's license, moved cities with my family, went into my Junior year of high school, watched as the city was in danger, babysat, and watched as the city was in danger some more. 

My family consists of 5 people. Me, my mother, my baby sister, my baby brother, and my teenage brother. I love my mom. She's the strongest person I know. Until I got old enough to help out, she was the only one taking care of us 5 with a nursing job. I do my best to help out, but I can only do so much. 

Being bitten by that spider ruined my life. It made me grow in ways I did not like. It made me strong physically when I didn't really want or need to be. Seeing all these people attacking our city.. it made me scared. And after seeing only police officers go up against them, part of me wanted to do something, but I knew I couldn't. Plus, they already have that spider-guy helping them out and he seems to be doing fine. Interesting that we both have something 'spidery' about us. 

Whenever there's an attack, I stay hidden with my family until they are dealt with, and so far nothing bad has happened, and I'd like to keep it that way. My mother and siblings are the most important things in my life, and if something were to happen to them... I don't know what I'd do. 

--------

It was the first day of my Junior year. My mom was able to get financial aid to send me to this nice school so I could get a good education. I don't think I'm smart enough, but I got accepted, so I try my absolute best so that she doesn't waste her money on me. I moved into the dorms almost a week ago. Despite loving my family, I did need a break from them sometimes. My roommate hadn't gotten here yet, which I'm fine with. I did it for random, but I hope we had somewhat the same interests.

While I was unpacking, I came across my little outfit. I had made it out of impulse when I thought I could actually do something with my abilities. It was basic white with some black stripes... I didn't know what else to do. I don't know why I packed it, to be honest. I've never used it, and I wasn't planning on using it any time soon. But somewhere in the back of my head, there's a hope that I might build up the courage to be of help to the city finally. I had it stuffed at the bottom of one of my drawers, trying to keep the mentality of  "out of sight out of mind". So far, I haven't succeeded. 

It was around 5:30 am when I woke up. I had nerves in my stomach, and dread was creeping up my throat. It was my first day at this school, and I was very nervous. I took my time sitting up and getting out of bed, all caught up in my thoughts. I looked around my dorm room a little bit to help calm my nerves. I hung up quite a few things on the walls from home, to make it more comforting, and it worked, I'll admit. I didn't realize the time until I looked at the clock on the nightstand next to my bed. 

6:30?!

I quickly got out of bed and ran to the restroom. I brushed my teeth, washed my face, and went to the bathroom. I didn't bother brushing my hair. I hadn't been acquainted with my roommate, I was nervous to meet him. Based on the way his dorm room was open, and the lights off, I assumed he had already left. Odd because I didn't hear him leave. I pushed those thoughts away before quickly getting dressed. I wanted people to like me, so I wore one of my favorite sweaters and a pair of jeans. Looking at the clock, it was now 6:50, and the first class started at 7:00. I quickly put together my bag, giving up halfway, and sloppily picked up the rest of my books before running out of the room.  I had stayed up late last night, making sure I was in all the right classes and that I knew my schedule well. I know my way around school, but what good does that do you if you don't know your schedule? I guess I now know the mere importance of an alarm as well.
