Me L.O.L

CHAPTER 1 A LIE

" Huummm.. How many time do I have to do this?" I said to myself. I'm still lying on my bed this morning. I was to lazy to continue my daily life whatsoever. Wake early, give my dog food, pay my rent and gets bully by senior on the way to high school.

Ohh!! Before I continue, I'm Hansen. Hansen Lol. I know my name is weird.., it was from my late father name, Lol Destin, that died when I was 12 years old. I'm not sure how he died but someone tell me he died in a bus crash. Maybe I think it is so... I'm now 18. But life doesn't seem to fit me. Like I said, I hate this daily life.

Tock! Tock! Tock!.. A knock in my room suddenly startled me." Who is it?" I asked lazily." How couldn't you forget me? Your day is up! As usual." A middle-aged man shouted behind the door. I should have find other penthouse because I know it's the owners penthouse. His name is Ruthby. His always making joke but strictly force people to pay rent.

" Can't I pay you tomorrow please?"I asked. "Ohh... I get it! You think you are Barack Obama! You have a lot of money. You just say " here kiss my shoe if you want my money" No no no.. You are nothing but a stray..hahaha" as Ruthby was teasing me. I just got 1 dollar a day. My rent is 50 cent a day. I've only got chance to use 50 cent a day. What a greedy man he is!!!

So I just pay him without complained and quickly pack to school. I locked down my door and go straight to the lonely street. I have no time to feed Ashley, my dog, because of the arguments between me and Ruthby. So I run of to school and luckily I was safe from the senior."Fuh! That's a relief." I said to myself.

I finally reached school and go straight to class. Suddenly, a flash of light swaps in front of me. I rear back with surprise.

"Did you see that?"I said to Manny. Manny looked at me. He is my close friend and shy person." See what?" He reply.

"You know, the light that swaps in front of me just now". I answer. "I don't see anything. I think you're dreaming".He said and lay his head on the table.

"Well,that weird." I said to myself. I can't have bad luck today. I need to make a good conversation with the headmaster after the school. Actually I wanted to be the photographer at school.

"I need to be positive." I gave myself some advice.

The bell ring at noon. Pupils were screaming happily. I felt weird and curious. "What's with the noise?" I asked to one of them.

"Didn't you see the tv last night? The school is closed tomorrow!!" The student said." Why and how long?" I reply curiously. "Well, why should I know?!!! It was so cool until it's close for a year."He said happily.

"A year? Umm, that cool too." I smile. "I know!! Awesome huh!! Haha L.O.L!!" He run and jump like crazy. The same as the other pupil.

I wonder why this happens suddenly." Do you know any of this?" I asked Manny. He seem to confused.

"What's wrong?" I asked Manny again." I know something that someone don't...."He said slowly.

He tried to tell something but he's brother came in front of the class. Manny didn't looked at me and run straight to his brother.

He didn't even finish what he want said to me." Maybe there is something important about it." I said to myself.

I leave soon and forget about the conversation with headmaster. I think I've got two problem today. First is the freaking out sudden. Then,
Manny's weird reaction.

I suggested myself to go to Manny's house tonight and asked about two of those problems. Maybe something of that will solve it.

I ate my dinner alone at home. I felt lonely since my family.... Hmm... I couldn't even talked about it too. It was too mystery even I couldn't solve it. But luckily Manny will come here every night. He was the best. But not tonight maybe.

After an hour later, I locked down my door. I need to be quick before the taxi has all gone.

Unfortunately, I was too late. I have no choice but to walked to his house. It was just three kilometers from home at Brooklyn. I was exhausted after two hour walking.

Luckily, I reached before nine o'clock. I was a relief. I knock down his door. A minute later, no one open it. I knock again. No response at all.

"Hello? Is anybody home?" I said loudly. I'm Hansen. Manny's friend." I continue. It was quiet. Just the whisper of the wind and the coldness of night.

I twisted the door knob and push it. I was surprised when I see everything was gone.

So I looked around and nothing was left except dust everywhere. I looked every corner of the house but no sign of his family. I called out Manny. No one answer nor him.

"Have they moved away to other countries?" I thought myself. Suddenly, a piece of paper fall from above me. It was a bit torn and looked old. I see a short note on the paper. I'm not sure to read because it was late already but I've got nothing else to do.

I have no other option.. I read it properly.
"Hello my dear friend, I know I was wrong for telling you like this. But I have no choice. So I gonna break one by one slowly from the beginning. I hope you're ready. The one you see in the morning and all these years,the one you call 'Manny', that was not me. Me and my family have long gone in a car crash. The one that that talking to you all this year was just your imagination of me including everyone else. I accompanied you everyday so that you will never be lonely. God gave me a last chance to live to help you.
I tried to tell you about it just now but I couldn't because it was the last day I walk on earth. I hope you understand. I am so sorry for lying to you all the years. If now I'm 20 years old, up there I'm 70 years old. I am your grandfather, Hansen. I the one that help cause your father could not touch earth before . Oh.. Before I forget the news in the tv that make the pupils freaking out is...........

The line was not finished. I was curious what is the news about. I couldn't even get myself tv.

I also didn't believe that Manny was my grandfather all these years. Maybe that's why I feel close to him. " Why didn't he just tell me........" I close my face and start to cry.

I wish I could turn back the time. I want to know him better. There was I crying alone in the middle of the night.

Not even a single human sound that night except the sound of the whisper of wind.

Suddenly, a sound of flapping wings came not far from here. A large owl is swapping down in the house. I was surprised. It's got a name tags on it. "Emoji' is written on it. The owl have a letter on its beak.

It's say...
" Dear Hansen,
Meet me at Paris next week. Someone will guide you at the airport. All the supplement will be ready . You just need to be ready at your door house. I will be waiting for you. There is something about the news. I hope you're ready....

Sincerely,
Mr.Augustus

I looked at it closely. I'm curious about it. I have no other choice but to follow the letter if I want to know more about grandpa and the news.

"So I've made my choice now..... I WILL GO TO FIND MR.AUGUSTUS AND FIND THE MYSTERY OF MY FAMILY TRAGEDY AT LONDON...I mean...PARIS...HAHA... " I said proudly. LAUGH OUT LOUD ME....

TO BE CONTINUE...
