Romelo August The 23-year old man who was never wanted. Always had a life of struggle, but still had a caring heart. He put people who didn't care about him before himself, and was always left behind. Everyone he thought that cared about him, left and didn't look back. His family and friends left him in the streets and was never heard from again. The man is now homeless, and hides from everyone. He stays in a dark abandoned building, and sits in a window all day, and watch people lurk the busy streets. He hardly eats, making himself extremely skinny. He never leaves the building, only at night to look for food to where his stomach has been starved for the longest. He sits in a dark cold room, by himself, wondering why was he treated so poorly? Why didn't anyone like him? Why didn't anyone love him? Romelo wanted a lot of things, but what he needed was someone to love and take care of him. He needed help. Larraé Whitman The 23-year old that found Romelo.
