Prologue: too long pt1
It was a sunny and bright morning and the market place was as lively as ever!
On days like this Romano couldn't help but feel upset. all the people around him were as joyous as ever, all of them laughing and smiling. Spending there short lives the best they could. He envied them. He had thought multiple times to do the same but without success. It seemed impossible and would feel fake to him.
He watched as families passed by and watched children playing out in the streets. He thought of his brother. How great i could of been for them to do same at that age. It made him feel even worse knowing that even now they were apart. He sighed. 'i hope hes Ok.' he thought.
He squinted and pressed his lips together, the pain rising in his throat.
He continued walking down the small cobble stone path back to his house.

By the time he got home he eyes were red from crying so much.
His foot steps echoed in the dimly lit hall. Before, he would enjoy coming home and resting, now he couldn't hate it more. The silence once filled with his loud, drunk and annoying friends now echoed his every foot steps.
He just wanted to be bothered. By his friends. By any one. But they were all to busy for him anymore, and he knew that they could never always be there.
He set a bag of groceries on the counter and headed to the living room and sat on the couch. He sat there for a moment staring at his reflection in the large TV. He stared at the reflection on the black screen. A man he did not want to see. Of course it was him but he didn't want to believe it.
His now human body had changed so much in such little time. It had only been a few weeks and yet he was haunted by himself. It was almost unreal, like a dream. A terrible dream. Humans lifes are so short and he was starting to feel the effects.
Another tear rolled of his cheek. He stared pitifully at the reflection, sobbing like a child, and lowered his head. He sat alone in the empty room. In an empty house. All alone.
