Quickly getting up from his super comfortable bed he placed on his red jumper pulling up the sleeves to hide the red and white lines they showed.
"Oui, papa. . I'm coming!" He had to find his glasses, quickly placing them on his face he made his way downstairs to the door opening it and 'smiling.' He had to fake a smile afterall he didn't want his father to suspect anything, being questioned about his appearance, the lines on his body, the suicidal attempts. Yeah that wouldn't be too great on his mood. He could handle the questioning or the scolding of the mess his room had left, but thats all. Nothing more, nothing less.
"Ahh! Bonjour mon enfant! Comment allez-vous?" He asked as he wrapped his arms around me, Matthew could feel the instant disgust when his father saw the inside of his house. . It's not all too messy just, a little.
"Good! I haven't eaten much lately, I have had a little loas of appetite but that's okay I'm still healthy!" He beamed hugging back and then stepping aside to let his papa in. "So uh. . What brings you to my humble home papa?"
"Oh nothing, nothing really. I just wanted to check up on my boy, see how you are doing. I am in town for a few days. . Would it be alright if I stayed with you? I have to meet someone here, Gilbert Beilschmidt." Oh god, that name. He cringed but couldn't show it so he held the smile. Afterall he had to fake this smile more then once.
"That's fine, but we may have to uh. . Clean m-my house up a little, I was planning on doing some house keeping today." Sure, sure he was. He was actually thinking of staying in bed and crying himself to sleep. If any tears would come that is, if not then he'll lay there saddened by his own existence.
"Oui, Of course! Let's get started!!" And so from that the two cleaned. . Cleaned, and cleaned till the house was shining and spotless.
"Papa. . I'm going out shopping, I'll be back soon." He said gathering his car keys and house keys going out of the house into his car. He was planning on stopping at one of the abandoned bridges, just so he can sit at the end of it and dangle his feet down the side, glancing over the bridge edge jnto the water.
"What would it be like to jump. . Leave this world?"
"Why. . ? Why give up your chance in kicking the world's butt for a sea of fish, coral and seaweed?" He looked up to be met with that albino man from the other day. "Why even bother? You won't get a clean and healthy kill from that." He mumbled walking closer towards Matthew.
"Yeah. I know, but what do you care?"
"I only came here because I thought I could get to the other side. Like all the other goats did."
"I have to go now. . My father is expecting me with a bag of groceries. See you round, I guess. ." with that Matthew left back in his car to head towards the shops.
