My name is Aden I am a fairly normal boy living in a normal town in a normal house with my normally annoying Father who has to be going mad because he is good with business and is clueless about everything else. I have only ever left the town once to go to my mothers funeral because she wanted to be buried near the beach where she grew up which was around an hours drive from here. Other than that I have been stuck in the hell for the last 16 years of my life.
Nothing exciting or strange ever happens here… Like nothing. I have only three friends, Steven he's a cool guy he loves gaming but then again we all do. Then there is Kevin, he is truly a strange guy he watches anime (what a girl!) I have known him the longest, since the begging of elementary. Then my third is Anthony he's probably not a good of a friend as Steven or Kevin are but we have fun none the less. I only knew Anthony through his parents and my farther doing business together but about a year a go he moved to this town (what a mistake) and now he goes to my school.
Wednesday morning
---------------------------
I wake up on my own which is normal because I find that alarms are to mainstream. I get dressed and go to school and see all the other people who are there every other day and all the teachers who work here every day too. It saddens me to have to live like this I really don't like everything happening in the same way every damn day of my life. Well now I have put myself in such a depressing mood I'll go talk to my friends and see if they have anything new and exciting to talk about. I walk up to them at our usual spot under the stairs and I can see Anthony looking really excited "maybe he will have something cool to tell me" I think to myself as I pick up the pace because I'm impatient and curious to see what's going on "hey why do you look so happy? what happened you have to tell me!" I blurt out as quickly as I can.
"whoa calm down. I'm only going on a cruise with my parents, you know the same one your Dad is going on?" he says still looking buzzed.
"wait my father has said nothing about a business cruise to me yet!" I know I'm going to kill my farther if he doesn't let me go on that cruise. It will be the second time I have ever gotten out of here after my mothers funeral when I was 7. "I'll ask my dad if I can come too, then we can keep each other company on the cruise because if its for business I bet there will be little to no other teens there"
"yeah It'll be fun!" He says with a huge grin. I am very happy myself
And so the day progressed on we had our classes and at lunch Anthony and I would plan what fun adventures we would have on the cruise. I feel bad because Steven and Kevin kinda look like they want to go to. Well I haven't really hung out with Anthony for a while. By the end of the day Steven and Kevin began talking about these girls and then left to go chat them up. I wont be surprised when Steven ends up dating one of them because he is pretty buff.

At Home
---------------
I get home and go straight into the lounge room searching for my farther. Not here next I check his bedroom (its the next closes room) Not there either. "He better be out doing something " I think to myself. If he comes home when I'm asleep I'm going to have to kill him. I go to search the kitchen next because that’s the last place he would be, seeming as the bathroom door was open on my way past it. I also know that the phone is in there and I can call him. But sure enough when I rush in there is nobody. "DAMN YOU!" I yell to my self. I go over to the phone and dial his number
*buzz buzz* … *buzz buzz* … *buzz buzz* … *BEEP!*
He didn't pick up…
That’s it I guess I'm just going to have to wait for him. I go back to the lounge and turn on the Xbox guess I'll do something fun to put me back in a good mood. I play for around 2 hours when I begin to get hungry. I go to the kitchen and open the fridge. GOD DAMN my farther is a complete nut case! Hes left a letter for me in the FRIDGE! I begin to read it and it said…

Wow… I thought he was mad but this is on a whole other level. First off he left without me. Second I Have to live alone for 2 weeks. Third I have to stay here or face punishment for not watering his damn chilies. And last off he put the money in the microwave?? Well my life just got weird as much as I will enjoy my life not being normal for 2 weeks I have to spend those 2 weeks in the same place I spend every other living moment of my life! Now upset I grab a can of soda and go over to the microwave I can already see the money inside. I open it up and take out what seems to be a rather large wad of money. How much does he think I need for just 2 weeks. I got back to the lounge and spread the notes all over the floor and begin counting…
$10.000 ... wait what let me count again.
