I Need You

Thank you, but....

What happened to my house..... How did I end up like this....

Stranger's Flashback- 13 years ago.

I just got out of school. I'm going to be going to Harvard university in a month, I have the greatest girlfriend and my parents are great. What more could I ask for? I got inside my black jeep. I got this car for my 19th birthday two months ago. I felt like the luckiest person on earth. I drove to my girlfriend's house. She wasn't feeling well and stayed home today. I saw a car I didn't recognize. It must be a relative. I hope nothing serious is going on. Whoever's car it is, its pretty awesome. I walk to the front door. I'm holding yellow dandelions. There her favorite. I ring the doorbell. No one answers. I then remember the key she gave me. I take it out my pocket and insert it into the door. I unlock and open the door. I step inside. Something doesn't feel right. I try and shake it off, but it won't leave. I look around, her parents aren't home yet. I should probably stay with her until they get home. I walk down the hallway to her bedroom. I hear something. It sounds like moaning. I open the door and drop the flowers. She's on top of some guy riding him. I can't believe my eyes. I feel anger like no other. I immediately grab her and throw her on the other side of the room. She screams. "Michael!!! Its not what you think!! Michael!!" I didn't hear a word she said. I was focused on the man in the bed. I wrapped my hand around his neck and start pounding him in his face. I don't know what came over me. I wasn't in control anymore. Anger was controlling my every move. I didn't even notice when Veronica's dad came in and pulled me away from him. "Let go!! Let go!!!" I struggled to be let free, but he was stronger than me. I was looking at the guy. I can't believe my eyes. I know him. He's my best friend, Jake. Why would he do this to me? I was able to pull free from her dad. I didn't go after Jake. I simply left. Veronica kept calling after me to stay. I got in my car and drove home. Parents aren't home yet. I don't want to be by myself. I wait for them to come home. An hour passes, then two, now three. Everytime I call their phones it sends me to voicemail. Suddenly, someone rings my doorbell. I answer the door. Its a police officer. "Um how may I help you?" "Are you Michael Jackson?" "Yes. Why?" "May I come in?" "Um sure." I invite him in and we sit down on the couch. "Michael, I'm sorry to tell you this, your parents have been in an accident." "Are they ok? What happened?" "A drunk driver forced them off the road. I'm sorry. They died instantly." I couldn't believe my ears. First my girlfriend now my parents. "I have to go." "Uh yeah bye." I'm in to much shock right now. I leave the living room and go straight to bed. The next day, I remember everything that happened. I immediately start crying. I can't believe this is happening. I go get my mail and there's a letter from Harvard university. I open it up. The letter states that they have too many students and they are sorry to say I can't go to that school. I feel like dying. But, I love life to much.... What life..... I need to do something. Watch TV.

Present Day- Michael's point of view

Next thing I know its been 13 years. Kelsey comes back in. She sees me crying. She immediately ask me if I'm ok. "Kelsey. I need to be alone." "What about my offer?" "Thank you, but....." I was interrupted by a rock that flew through my window and missed my head by inches. The anger I felt 13 years ago is coming back. I can't control myself. Stop walking toward the door. Why is my hand in a fist. Why am I gritting my teeth. Someone has to stop me. I can't control myself....
