„Hunny, wake up. It's the first day of school."
I opened my eyes and saw my mother smile at me.

„Mom, I feel sick. Can I stay home? Please?"
I looked at her with puppy eyes eventhough i knew I wasn't sick. I just didn't want to go back to school.
„Parker, I know you're lying."

Well I tried right?

I went to the bathroom and took a shower. It was a good as shower.
I put my black pants and white top with my necklace on.
After I finished getting ready I went downstairs to eat something.

„Is Dad already of to work?" I asked my mom who gave me my breakfast.
„Yes he is. Did you wanted to talk to him?"

I wanted to ask him if the music label answered.
I sent an letter to them before summer break.
My dad was an ex band member and he teached me to play the guitar since I was little.
Music was like a place where I would find myself and feel free.
My mom knew I liked playing guitar but didn't see it as a thing that I can pressue after school.
That's why I'm in the rugby team with my best friend Mason.
It's not like I hate rugby but the love to music is way bigger.

„Yeah but it isn't that important." I smiled at her.

„I'm going to wake up your brother now. Could you may help me with putting him in his chair?"

My brother Luis has got a brittle bone disease. That means his bones are pretty weak and could break easily. You can see them as glass. If you make one bad move, it could break.
My Mum and Dad adopted him at the age of 5. They knew about his disability but they didn't cared because they felt like he was a perfect son to be.

And I'm happy they felt that way because I love him more then anything.

He is 12 now but needs help now and then, so my Mum stopped working to take care of him.

I helped her to get Luis in his wheelchair and took of to go to school.

„Wait!" My mom stopped me before I could open the door.
„Your aunt is visiting us today hunny. I thought I could show her a little bit of Cliffwhale. It would be amazing if you looked after Luis after school. Dad will come at 4 so you can order food with the money I put on the desk."
„Sure Mum, have fun and say Hi to aunt Eli."

I got in the garage and started my motorcycle. I always loved to drive it instead of a car. It just feels like more freedom to me.

After I arrived at school I saw Mason coming up to me.
„What's good bro?" We fist bumped.
„Well bad news, I can't go to Abby's after school I need to look after Luis. I'm sorry man."

„Dude, it's fine but next time you need to be there. That Hazel chick always asks for you. She totally likes you." He started laughing because he knew that Hazel was a friend of Violett.

„She might be a nice girl but I'm done dating girls. To complicated man. Number one priority is my education and after that comes fun with the boys."
I took school really seriously. Not like Mason.

„Bro, wtf? You almost sound like my sister."
Before I could say something Mason was stopping a girl.
She looked a bit lonely and focused but also kinda cute.

„Uhhh, Capperfield. Do we have Halloween already or why do you look like a fucked up version of Freddy Krüger?"

He hit me in my side with his elbow to let me know I can laugh now.
But I thought he was rude to her.

She turned around and answered him.
„Oh, I think I got the days wrong. I thought it was 'go to school like a douchebag called Mason and act like the most handsome guy in Cliffwhale High even though no one wants me' day."
I started laughing at her respond.
She was pretty sassy. I liked it.

„Not. Funny. Parker." Mason looks at me with a mad face.
Ups.

„Next time you should think about the things that come out of your mouth which we call words, Mason."
After that, she walked up the stairs.

„Really dude? Laughing at her respond but not at my joke? Why are we best friends again?" He shook his head.
„Mason, I ask myself the same question every single day."

We both started laughing and walked into the building...
