Micah Grayson has had a dark cloud over him since the day he was born. His parents said he was their bad luck. After getting himself into a slew of trouble over the years he wounded up in a mental health facility for his ongoing problematic behavior...
Walking into his house Micah clutched his keys in his hand as he made his way through the downstairs part of the home. Seeing that the kitchen light was on he knew that Jess was still up.
Trying to hurry to the stairs before she heard him it was too late.
"Mic come in the kitchen for a minute." Jess called out causing Micah to suck his teeth.
Walking into the kitchen he saw his aunt sitting at the table with her glasses pushed upon her nose, while looking at old photos.
Standing in the door frame Micah watched her smile at certain pictures before she lifted her head to see him.
"Hey handsome, sit with me for a second." Jess said motioning toward the seat across from her.
Pulling his bottom lip between his teeth he gave her a small head nod before pulling the dining chair out and sitting upon it.
"Look at you. You had to be like three?" Jess asked laughing a little showing him the picture of him as a child. "You were so cute."

Looking at the picture Micah smiled a little before frowning. He looked so happy in the picture as a child. This was when his parents still showed him attention although Melody had just came into the picture.
Handing Jess the picture back Micah picked up random pictures that were scattered across the table. Each one held a different memory for him. Some good, but majority bad.
One picture in particular caught his eye though it was his family's Christmas picture. In the photo was his mom and dad as they held Melody, but no Micah.
They didn't even put you in the family Christmas photo.
Biting down hard on his lip Micah flipped the picture over no longer wanting to see it. Looking at them happy without him made him angry.
"Remember this one?" Jess asked showing him the picture of her taking him to Disney land for the first time. "That was the first time your parents would let you come with me. We had fun that day." She smiled.
"We did." Micah nodded. "Can I ask you something?"
"Of course hun anything." She said giving him her full attention.
"How come you didn't disown me like everyone else after what happened to my parents?" Micah asked curiously.
Clearing her throat Jess looked over a picture she held of her sister Joy from when she was younger.
