I got up and started walking to the crowded street. I needed to eat. Of course,the orphanage didn't let us have pocket money,so I didn't have any money to buy food.

I sat down on the sidewalk,against a building,hoping someone would be kind enough to help. After a few hours,I started to be desperate...

This is when I saw a police car patrolling around,they were asking people if they saw a certain someone- I took a look at the picture and realized it was me. I can't go back to the orphanage,I'm gonna get killed!

I escaped quick enough to not seem suspicious and not be noticed. I went through a dark alley between two streets. It didn't feel so safe,but I needed to hide. I hid between a dumpster and the brick wall. I spent an hour there then decided to move.

I walked for what seemed like an eternity and arrived behind a big restaurant,I told myself they probably threw some food away in the dumpsters. Pretty disgusting,but I was starving. I grabbed a few pieces of bread quickly then left.

As I was getting set for the night,a man in a black and old coat approached me,he seemed pretty young,maybe 20 years old. He had dirty hair and seemed homeless too. He started yelling at me:

-Hey young man,in case you didn't notice,this is my spot
J looked around...indeed there was a blanket and a few clothes
-Oh sorry I- I will find another spot
-Haha no,I was kidding,what's your name kid,what are you doing out here in the streets?
-It doesn't matter,my name's Alexander,I'm 15,and you?
-My name's Zackary and I'm 19

And here I was,settling up with my new friend,it is great having someone out here.

Weeks passed as our bond grew stronger,we were great allies,even more,friends.

Imma end it here cuz I'm evil- next part soon :D
