A crappy beginning My name is Greg Ario and I live in Philadelphia with my mom ,dad,two sisters and my brother, we were once a loving family but then one of my brothers died and left us and ever since that tragedy we went haywire ,I mean really terrible ,its like were at war with each other and there's no love or natural affection and that really hurts me to see that we can't be just a normal family its always cursing and fighting .My mom fights and quarells with my dad,my only brother fights with my sisters and really hurts them I'm the only one in the entire family who actually doesn't be in conflict and actually tries to bring peace in the household but nothing that I do seems to bring any remorse to my family I mean I've tried talking out ,I even ran away once to my school's pshycyatrist and that didn't even work .My brother is a smoker he says "it relieves me of stress" and I'm like "yeah it does ,it also relieves you of common sense because you always hit your little sisters " and he'd rush into me hastily as if he wanted to hit me ,he has a mental problem ,he also has bad nerves so he shakes a lot I think its called Parkinson's disease whatever it is I don't car! He has no right to hit my sisters.
My brother and I have an "on and off" relationship at one point we'll be ok and talk normally he'd ask me to go to the local mart for him and I would, we'll be fine NEVER GOOD but fine then on another occasion we won't speak to each other the both of us will be in the same room but never say a word to each other if we do speak its an argument so I try my best to avoid him .With my parents now its more or less based on the mood if my das comes from work kinda grumpy my mom argues, if he comes home drunk they argue ,if she cooked something he doesn't like he argues ,if she invites a male friend over and dad finds out he was here or comes home and meets him there talking to mom in the living room they'll argue finally they decided to live seperately but remain married so my dad took all his stuff and left to go by my uncle to live and when he left he said to me "son I'm always with you nomatter what I'll always be here with and for you never forget that"and those words became engraved in my mind so I always thought of it.
MONDAY MORNING
Greg's POV. "No stop,You can't take me" "I don't want to be here ,let me go ahhhhhhh"
Gasp! I woke up from my terrifiing nightmare in a cold sweat this has been my regular Monday morning since daddy left , I don't know what's the reason for it ,maybe I'm distressed because of daddy leaving ,maybe I'm tired of the anxieties of life that keep scarring me with its figurative blade but its reality so I deal with it " ugh I seriously need to stop drinking cocoa before going to bed ", huh only 6 am you've got to be kidding" as I decided to get ready for school ,so I dragged my butt off of my bed and crawlled my way to the bathroom to freshen up I heard dead silence so everyone must have been sleeping " I'll try not to wake anyone" I finally finished up in the bathroom so I headed to my bedroom to get dressed ,then down the stairs I slid ,into the kitchen to grab lunch,out of the kitchen,to the front door When!
" KADEEEEÈÈEEM" my mom shouted to the top of her voice ,from her room
" yes woman" I answered sassily," weyy yuh going" she replied " To the Hell Hole known as school" 'but its only 7 ' 'and your point is?' 'Well have a nice day hun ,and remember momma loves yew' 'yeah, yeah' so I opened the door and began walking to my best friends house to meet up for us to go to school, he lives about 16 blocks away from me and its 7 by now so its hollow and scary out this early but for some reason I feel more safe here than in my own home its always so chaotic there and I just needed to get away,
" Finally I'm here ,its been forever", LESTON ! LESTON! OI LESTON!
Leston replies , "god is that you" , "no idiot its me Greg come on down and open the door" 'Nigga you came over here at 7 in the morning to wake me up from my slumber for what may I ask?' "Hmmm well I don't know it could be because we have SCHOOL to go to! , and your already flunking so punctuality could help out " "oh damn that's today, I totally forgot ,hold on I'll be right down"
Door opens "hey duncee " I replied "hey retard, you all ready for school"
"Steups I'm always ready" and that's just another way for him to say I never bathed or brushed my teeth but that's none of my business .
Leston's POV .
"LESTON! LESTON! OI LESTON!" I vaguely woke up, "god is that you" I said
"No you idiot its me greg come on down and open the door" as I flew back to reality and realised who I was really talking to I said "nigga you came over here at 7 in the morning to wake me up from my slumber for what may I ask?" "Hmmm well I don't know it could be because we have SCHOOL to go to! , and your already flunking so punctuality could help out" "oh damn that's today, I totally forgot,hold on I'll be right down"
"Ughh school ,he is right though I'm really in a mess but 7 in the morning Niggas be crazy" . "Let me go down before he has a fit"
"Hey duncee" ," he replied hey retard you all ready for school" then I steupsed and replied "I'm always ready" by now Greg should know that's how I try to say 'yeah I never freshened up though' without the nasty part
As leston and I walked down the street we realised that there was a pitch black range rover slowly approaching us, so we sped up to at least reach where our body's were visible, in this street there wasn't even a street light. So as we fled, the range rover still suspiciously followed us us until we reached the bus stop then slowly approached us and wined the windows down.
"Hey girls"
"Oh Wyatt its you, why'd you creep up on us so deadly ?"
"Because I knew you guys would get scared and boy was I so right ,you two girls sped up and fled hahaha"
"Your such a douche you know that"
"Yeah but I like it,anywhoo where you morons off to"
"School!! idiot "
"OK see you ladies later"
Wyatt is our friend from the neighborhood he likes pranking and does it to everyone .You may be wondering 'if he's you all friend why is he so mean to you guys' trust me that was not mean that's how boys talk .
Finally after decades of waiting the buss shows up and two girls appear out of nowhere and giggled looking in our direction as they climbed into the bus and we follow them into the bus ,before we could catch our seats the buss takes off and we fell to the ground
"Heyyyy nigga cant you see were not sitting or is your stupid life blocking air from reaching your incompetent ,disfunctional brain"
The bus driver shaked his head and quietly apologised
We got to our feet and took our seats while the bus gleamed with laughter
And that's when it started
The entire bus started throwing bottles and paper at us and calling us names this has been the norm forever but this time they came with a vengeance and they were gonna gain it by any means necessary so they chanted in unison
" Gay,gay,gay from your side Greg never strays in your arms without delay and lives to see you pass his way oh I wish to see the day when all you gays would burn away"
We were ashamed they abashed us .They did this because they think were gay because were always together but were not we both have girlfriends
The bus approached school and we were in love to be in school was actually great its a shocker but its true we were extraordinarily happy to have embraced school
"OK lest on I have Spanish what do you have?"
" biology and Its 9:53 wow I'm late and I have a lab due today Mr seeraj is gonna kill me "
"Well we'll meet up later"
"Yeah laterz"
And we both left
We never met up that day ,we were trying to kill those haterz rumours and it kinda worked because when the bully's saw me they were shocked to see that I was alone im usually with leston
