He was their first son, and he was perfect. The doctor said so. Look at him, big brown eyes, stopping traffic in the grocery store.
And he was. For awhile.
But then something was a little...off.
The doctor said they were crazy, and muttered something about overeducated older parents.
But those temper tantrums. Dear God.
Just don't say it. Just- don't. He's perfect.

Music - On. World - Off.
About 4 years ago; I lost my temper, Went nuts under the pressure, Cracked. Call it whatever you want, it’s not going to change anything. I was normally such a calm person; the kid that always followed the rules, always listened. But I think it was because I knew something was wrong and when all I wanted was an answer it’s exactly what I didn’t get which led to my... outburst. And after that they kept coming, started being about smaller things and becoming more violent, it scared them, what I did to the car, what I almost did to my dad, and everything after that; it all scared them. So I was sent here which I bet it was a blessing for my dad, it’s not like he ever wanted me. Now I’m almost eighteen, but it’s nothing special really, just another kid in an orphanage. I know it means that I’m going to be released soon, but I don’t think I’m going to make it till then, my sickness is becoming worst; not that I show it. This is me now, the new Sean.Complete

The Girl Who Couldn't Speak ✓
Mama told me that I was a beautiful girl when I was little. Mama said that I had the prettiest tan skin, soft wavy black hair, and the most enchanting emerald eyes. She always called me her bundle of joy. Then she got very sad when she told me that I didn't have a voice. I was only two at the time. I didn't understand any of the former English gibberish. Mama looked like she wanted to cry every time I opened my mouth to let out what was supposed to be a small giggle of joy. Or when I wanted to say her name and Papa's name. But no sound would ever come out, and I was a very confused little toddler until the very first day of kindergarten. © Copyright 2016 Yuan S.C. HIGHEST RANKING #221 in Short Story 3/17/19.

"Yeah I'm pretty sure I learned that when I got my license! Did they teach you not to speed?!" Now I pushed his chest causing him to stumble back. "What the hell back off Barbie! I was looking where I was going and I was not speeding. Sorry if I was going to fast for you granny." "Oh you did not just call me granny." I yelled. Then I got my cell out and called no other then Aiden. He could fix this and fix this guys face into a different form. "Aiden some jerk just crashed into me and then decided it would be smart to mess with me and yell into my face. Come here I need you." I whined sounding sad to get my brother more pissed. "Be right there." Then he hung up. Haha this boy is in for it. "You are going to pay for this. I'm calling the police." "Oh yes have fun and would you be a dear and ask for the chief because I know my dad would love to know his baby got smashed into." I smiled. I win.Complete

Older Brothers
Drama. Drama. Drama. That pretty much describes my life. I mean when your living with your 7 older brothers, 5 cousins, best friends, and a 3 month old baby, life can't get any better! And then there's school. Well school is school. Loaded with a the different 'groups' of kids. The geeks, popular, etc. And last but not least, my parents. We don't even know where they are most the time since they go on business trips after business trips. They come for for a week at the most and leave again. My family is not rich, but not poor. We have more than enough money to get the nice things we want, but we have to earn them. My life sounds pretty interesting huh?Complete
