Have you ever been so hungry that it keeps you awake? All my life I couldnt control my hunger. So i just lived with it. It wasn't that hard, cause I knew nothing could stop me, since I've already lit the anger in me.
<><><><>
My first training with father wasn't that great. But I pocketed a few advices from him:
Chance doesn't come to whoever's waiting for it. It comes to whoever's prepared.
The best armor is to keep out of range.
Nothing in the world is faster than your mind.
Then he told me this: Soon you learn there's a whole load of shit you can do with just a gun.
I didn't completely believe him until the next day I saw him curving a bullet. Everyone in the community told me my father could conduct the symphony orchestra with his pistol and they were right. When he felt my ambitious gaze on him, he warmly smiled at me, a smile that embraced me and accepted me.
He handed me an archaic German luger, and I felt my mind soar over the unthinkables as my soft hands felt the brass-metal pistol grip.
As father vanished into the darkness, I released the magazine and checked the number of bullets inside.
Only....one?
As father emerged from the darkness the light lay upon his crumpled face.
He had a thick cigar on his mouth, and I told him, "Father, those will kill you you know."
He huffed out a hearty laughter saying, "So will old age! Ha ha ha."
I couldnt help but smile at him.
