All the things that you're supposed to learn from your mother, I had to teach myself. I grew up alone. I had no one to teach me right from wrong. I acted purely on instinct and my conscience. My whole life I've never felt love. I don't even know what it feels like. I don't know what it's like to have a family. I would die to feel the love of a mother, even just for a minute. I would die to have a mother who would hug me and somehow all my broken pieces magically go back together. I want to be able to say the words 'I love you mama'. The four words that can make someone feel more precious and important than money and oxygen. But it's too late. I'll never get what I would die for. I'm eighteen now which means I'm out of the foster system. I'm all alone in this world. No family to help me when life gets rough.

Sex and Death in Skeleton City

29 Delen Compleet

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
