I didn't cry like most people would have, I went to my room and grabbed a suitcase. I figured if I was a disappointment then why stick around, I mean if they don't want me and I don't want them then screw this as I thought in the moment. I grabbed all my clothes, games, toys, books, practically my whole room and walked downstairs as my mom glared at me. " What are you doing boy?" She asked. I didn't answer her because I thought if I'm leaving, then why give a shit? She got even more mad, " I said what are you doing, you dumb idiot?!" She said about to explode with anger. I still said nothing and grabbed my jacket and shoes and told myself every things going to be ok as I grabbed my dad's wallet that was left on the coffee table. My mom grabbed my hand, " You better step away from the wallet and act like you didn't try to do that!" She said as on the brink of destruction. I continued to grab the wallet and took out all the money left in it and proceeded to put on my shoes. My mom with confusion on her face said, " You know a kid as dumb as you isn't going to go far in this world, and whatever your trying to do isn't going to work." She said as if she had won the battle. I looked her straight in the eye and said, " You know I'm leaving and I hope never see any of you again, and if I do it will be too soon. People like you mother go far but never come back from a fall and well frankly I could give two shits. So I'm going to go pursue my dreams, and hope to god I never have to see your devil face again." I said with confidence. As I started to walk out the door as my mother asked me," Where are going to go, what are you going to do?" She said like she was concerned but mostly curious. I answered with over confidence," That's for me too know and you too find out but for now, FUCK OFF!''
