It was during a particularly difficult time of my life, that I met him first.
I was at the orphanage, and despite being 10 years of age, haven't been adopted by anyone yet. I was getting desperate, since all my friends here had found new homes, and no one seemed to want me.
Then a beautiful lady and her husband came to visit us. And they seemed to like me. That was until he introduced himself to them as well. With his habit of stealing,and lying as if it was his second nature, I was ashamed to be associated with him. And obviously, so were they. Since I could only be adopted with him, or not at all, there went my dream of having them as my parents.
He didn't leave after that. I got more and more frustrated with life. He even found a boy exactly like him, but who seemed to be around 20 yrs of age. And they created chaos in my life, appearing always at exactly the wrong time.
When I started working at the nearby cafe, he would come and flirt with all the girls there. People started giving me weird glances, and I lost that job too. Just because I had him with me.
It was after 5 more years that I finally managed to get rid of him. With therapy and treatment,I finally recovered from my multiple personality disorder. I would miss them both, but in the end, they were just me.
