Middle School

Chapter 6

It's Monday again! I don't know how saying that could make me happy but I have been going through some really depressing stuff the past few days for instance I got beat up again by John and his goons. I'm sick of getting beat up and I talked to my dad about it and he said he would call me back and the next thing I knew he bought me a ton of dumbbells and cowbells and piece of paper with an exercise schedule and stuff like that. It's smart to do and I could do it in my free time but I'm not good with schedules for instance I wasn't up for 4 hours a day of weight lifting, I already do 1-2 hours of basketball every day I can. So since I'm not good with schedule that whole exercise schedule thing just disappeared..... I have no idea whatsoever could have happened to it at all! No, I threw it out, there is no way I'm doing 4 hours a day of weight lifting. Over the weekend I did lift weights, lay basketball, and ride my bike. I'm trying to get in shape so I can wrestle John but to be honest I doubt I'll ever exercise again after this. Yes, I will occasionally ride my bike or lift weights and yes, I will practice basketball a lot but that's all I need in physical activity. I'm not going to spend my whole day doing that crap. Its way too boring, I'd rather play a good video game but that's just me.

My dad really wants me to play Football because he was a Football star back in the day but I like basketball. I'm really excited, it's only 3 weeks till basketball starts and I have made a lot of progress. Also, I'm going to Daniel's house today, I don't really know if he plays video games or not. Maybe he is one of those physical activity 24/7 kids. That would be pretty bad because all we do is play basketball and it's a possibility.

I went over to Daniel's and he has the newest game console with all the games and his mom is a CHEF and his dad is a carpenter so he builds all sorts of cool things. I'm so glad no one goes over my house, I have the last generation console with half the games, My mom is always busy, and there is no "cool" dad to hang out with. So, my house is pretty much a bore but Ralph and Daniel are the only friends I have had and have and they are both super cool. I'm not good at making friends or keeping them, people say I have a big mouth but I tend to come up with witty comebacks about them and they never bother me again. Daniel and I had a lot of fun playing games and we had an air soft gun war. It was a fun day. I had to go early because it was a school night but I was glad I got to go at all.

Its Tuesday, John has been searching for me and I realize I do need to bulk up. I need to get bigger and taller so at lunch I ate everything my mom packs instead of half and it's not that I eat light it's just that my mom doesn't pay much attention so she always just throws tons of food into my lunch box which is pretty big and then puts it in my book bag. My plan was to gain weight and muscle So I would be big but not fat and strong as well. When I got home I couldn't eat dinner but I ate all the fatty stuff. Then I exercised for a while and then I ate a 12 pack box of these little chocolate-y creamy fatty snack cakes which were so good and so bad for me. Then I exercised again I gained 3 pounds and after that day.... I quit. My stomach couldn't handle it so there goes my plan to beat up John. I think I'll just stick to sports and maybe then I will be able to.

Its, Thursday and I'm finally meeting my mom's replacement for my dad. His name is Joe and he's pretty nice but I'm not about to let some bozo come and steal my mom. My mom washed her hands first and then I did, after I finished I put in tons of hot sauce and things like that in the soap and then I exited the bathroom. Right after he started screaming from the burn I ran in threw out the bottle and replaced it with one that was empty as the bottle I used to wash my hands and that cleared the evidence, shortly after my mom ran in and helped him. When mom had to use the bathroom she asked me to season the food so I seasoned my mom and I's food pretty well and I covered the bottom of his meal with pepper and all sorts of spicing this and then covered it with hot sauce and served it to everyone. When we all ate I swear he turned red and he started coughing terribly and went to drink his water which I replaced with water-y hot sauce which made it worse. He ran into the bathroom and I made sure to conveniently place a cup of water in the bathroom he could drink. The only thing was that it was hot sauce water; he did what I expected and DRANK it. He just decided to leave but my mom followed him. I made sure to clean the bottom of his fish and rinse out both cups of water and fill them with regular water and made sure to leave it a little bit empty which would be the amount he sipped. All the evidence was gone and I'm sure that boyfriend was never coming back.

I couldn't help feel guilt for what I did, I didn't want my mom to replace my dad but it would be cool to have a step-dad around here or even a father figure that could help me. She was happy with him, what have I done? Like I said before I can't ever keep my mouth shut and I never think things all he way through. Sometimes I think I may becoming like the %80 of my school...
