I was going into my second year of college, everything was great, but I sure did miss my friends back at home, but ever since I left that place, everything felt so calm, so relaxed. I could finally set myself straight for once, but, that was all short lived. It was in the middle of the year, and I gotten a call from my dad, I looked at the time and it was nearing midnight, he never does this, unless it's important.

I picked up my phone from the table, my room mates, fast asleep in their rooms. My dorm was pretty big, so it kinda was like a house but with one floor, two rooms, two bath rooms, showers, sinks, everything, but TV's. As I picked it up, my father's voice rang through my ears, he didn't even say "Hello." All he said was "Kyle, I'm sorry, I really fucked up this one. Kyle, don't say anything, just listen." I stayed silent. "I was fighting for this fifteen year old girl who was accused of killing a mother's son, husband, and twin daughters. I couldn't believe what they were saying, she looked so innocent, hell she was even crying her eyes out saying it wasn't her but-- any way, Kyle... I lost, they put her in jail for the next six years, and Kyle... they not only sewed her, but... us too... everything we had... I'm sorry... I was only allowed this one phone call, and a place to stay for the night."

As he said those words, I could hear my mother's cry in the background. "Gerald! How could you?! Why our boy?!" It was like as if he did something to me without my knowledge, but the truth is... He was forced to take all my money out of my college fees that I had payed all my eight years. I was studying to be a photographer. I know that sounds strange, but, I loved those pictures that Cartman took. Now I'm not implying anything, he's still a fucking fatass, but... after hearing those words come from my father's mouth... I dropped the phone, and I dropped to my knees.

This was horrible!! Not only don't I have money to continue studying here and my photography after all the work I put into it, that girl is in jail for what she didn't even do... But... if we're bankrupted... that would mean... I can't go back either... I'm stuck here in Ireland! That's when it all began, in just one single night, my whole life changed, and I won't forget it.
