michael has always been able to draw and pinpoint a color on everyone. if you asked him he would whip out his sketch book, draw you, and color the picture in only using your color.

he was always so good at that. he never messed up. he was absolutely perfect and most considered that a talent.

he just doesn't know what happened when he saw his neighbors.

they were a loving family of four. two adults that had two beautiful kids. their son, calum, had the room closest to michael's. they could communicate through their windows, which michael wasn't looking to do by the way.

michael decided to draw the family. he drew the four of them and he colored the mom, dad, and sister yellow because they were happy and nice people. he got stuck on the boy though.

calum screamed too many colors. when michael colored him one color, another color took over and it confused him.

it made him mad.

he caught a glimpse of calum staring at him through his open window. calum was curious as to what the older boy was doing.

michael didn't like that. not one bit. he looked up with fire in his eyes and got up. he slammed his window shut and closed his curtains.

calum pouted. guess he doesn't like me, thought calum. the thirteen year old was confused as to why the fifteen year old gave him such a rude gesture.

calum didn't even know the boy's name and he was already rude. calum was a nice boy. he didn't think he deserved the abuse.

calum went to sleep sad and michael went to sleep angry that he couldn't pinpoint a color.

it's all that guy's fault, was michael's final thought before passing out.
