what would you do if eveyrthing you thought you knew about your life turned out to be a lie if the hoi polloi you love the world you love shatterd like a mirror in front of you what would you do watch it burn fighting it or let it consume you just be carefull who you become on the way even if it takes getting your ass kicked or worse loosing some one you love or doing anything for them and loosing your ego on the way but either way thoughs are the moments that define us that shape us it doesnt matter if it takes 6 min or 6 seconds because in the end we have to subsist with the conclusion we make but im gettting ahead of myself my name is jake pressure im 19 and i live in new York with my 12 year old kid Sister amy its just us now ever since our parents died in a car crash 2 class ago soon after i realised i had to get a job so i did at a resturant waiting table serving at the bar anything to get money i guess but today was just another boring ass day in college trying not to lessen asleep.
'' hey jake come alive up man '' i herd kyle almost shout at me and if your wondering kyle is a supporter of mine ive known him ever since my parents died `` halo jake wake up man its time to go '' i slowly opend my eyes realising the course of instruction room was hollow apart from me and kyle i looked to my left sightedness kyle sitting on the desk next to me `` waky waky bro you must of slept through the trap socio-economic class whats a affair havent you had a lot eternal rest lately you look exausted '' kyle said putting his hand on my berm `` well atleast i dont look as bad as you '' i replied with a smirk `` haha yeah you wish bro anyway are you comming to my party tonight you have to man theres gon na be hot girls there and i mean hot like youve never seen and you look like you need to loosen up seems like you havent slept in a year '' kyle said standing up
`` it feels like it and i cant i have to influence tonight so im form of tighed up at the moment `` i replied realising how late it must of been so i quickly reached in my pocket and pulled out my phone seeing thats i had only 15 moment to get to knead before i was late twice in a row `` dam flavor i have to go '' i said standing up and grabing my backpack before swinging it over my left shoulder joint and darting for the doorway but just as i reached it mrs clements walked in `` mr Hale i need a give-and-take with you right now '' she said sitting at her desk `` mrs clements cant this wait im running late for work '' i said turning around `` this will only make a moment take a seat mr hale mr Black person could you please leave behind while i have a confabulation with jake please '' she asked kyle nodded and then headed for the door `` hey ill move over you a call later ok '' kyle wisperd as he walked out i walked over to the front of her desk and took a hind end hoping this would be over soon `` mr hale its been brought to my attension that your studdys have been taking a turn for the worst your hardly ever here and when you do evince up you sit at the back of the course either talking with your friends or falling asleep on your desk so what do you have to say for your self '' she said with a pissed off whole tone `` face i have to go to work every nighttime just to make ends adjoin and on top of that i have to get tending of my kid sister because she has no one els just me and even after working all nighttime i still supervise to sweep up myself out of bed and ejaculate here for 8am just like anyone els so i think i deserve a little slack dont you '' just as i said that she stood up and her aspect turned red with choler `` ITS NOT good enough mr hale you break straighten up or your going to fail this class and this hole term and thats a place where you dont want to be leaving here with nothing to register for it '' i looked up and just gave her a smug smiling
`` is that all '' i replied but before she could answer i grabed my haversack off the level and sprinted out of the door into the hall way i ran as fast as i could but i was so exausted from working all night and lets just say college wasnt exactly a place that could get my mind off of everything it just seemed to get worse every week but all i could suppose of was that i couldent be late again i had to be on fourth dimension because marcus would kill me i must of been lost in thought process because before i new it i was falling flat on my back in a haze wondering what the Hell just happend `` hey watch where your going what are you blind or something '' i herd a voice scream at me i tried to look up but i couldednt see at start i was so tierd my eyes were bleary `` what are you deff as well '' i herd the girlish vocalization say again i mannaged to finally get my eye sight back i looked up and noticed a womanly figure standing above me with blond haire but my eyes were so blured i couldent see her that well `` umm ring what am i talking to myself or something '' she screached at me `` sorry i didnt realise where i was going '' i said standing up `` what are you some form of perv or something just quell away from me ok '' she continued to screach at me `` anyone ever state you how charming you '' i replied sarcasticly but she must of be off balance from the declivity because she fell against one of the cabinet but i jumped forward and grabed her before she could do any grievous damage but she pushed me away `` did i say i needed your help perv no just stay away from me is that clean enough for you '' she stated turning around and walking away `` squeamish to receive you to '' i mutterd under my breath but i was quickly snaped off my railroad train off view when my phone started to ring i quckly answered it not looking at the number `` jake its marcus where are you we expected you here 5 second ago hurry up or your working the late shift on the bar '' i quickly put my phone down and ran down the corridor to the main entrence i ran as fast as i could across the main road almost getting knocked down by a car and if that wasnt bad enough it started raining getting me drenched i ran down every scant cut i could i finally arrived at the resturant so i decided to go through the back hoping no one would notice me sneaking in so latterly i opend the room access to the employe locker way soaking wet trying to catch my breath i looked around not noticing anyone i slid my backpack off getting my work clothes out but just as i did i looked up seeing marcus leaning against the entrance to the kitchen `` umm is it raining by any probability buddy '' he said with a slim chortle `` just a few shower around nothing to bad '' i jokingly replied trying desperatly to see my breath `` are you feeling ok jake you dont look so in effect brother ''
all i could do was laugh as i collapsed on the work bench behind me `` yeah never better just have to enamour my breath '' marcus walked over to me and sat down on the bench near the employes lockers `` jake honestly are you ok if you need some time off all you have to do is ask you look like you could use a open frame '' marcus had a concerned spirit on his face what ide never seen before `` you know your not the first person to ask me that '' i said smirking at him `` but i cant i need the money have to keep up defrayment on the theater or they will throw me and amy out on the street i wish i could remove a break but i cant '' i sat up on the body of work bench putting my oeuvre clothes on `` if your sure as shooting buddy just dont work your self to demise '' marcus said laughing before getting up and walking to the door `` oh and jake i was wondering we have a new girl starting claire do you think you could show her the roach its her first day and i thought who proficient than you '' i paused confused for a instant marcus always tells me about new employes oh well it wasnt like i could say no `` uh yeah sure thing '' replied still unsure `` outstanding you have 2 minutes to get ready and then ill see you in the kicthen '' marcus said before turning around and walking into the resturant i quickly got changed puting my bag and my jacket into my cabinet and closing it i laughed to myself i mean value could this day get any worse but i guess i had to deal with it but as i started to leave the footlocker room my phone started to ring again i quickly pulled my earphone from my pocket seeing it was amy i answered it as fast as i could `` hey jake are you going to be habitation tonight you promised me you would be where are you '' i felt spoiled than id ever felt before i totaly forgot that i promised amy i would be home today `` dam dingy sis i have work i spaced it completely i '' but before i could say another word the line of work started to break up and eventally died out so i put my speech sound in my pockect already as pissed off as i could be with how the day is turning out.
i walked into the kitchen slowy opening the door looking around to see if anyone was in there but to my surpise it was almost as if it was abandand i walked over to the cesspit turning the tap on looking at how many dishes i would induce to do by myself `` yo jake my boy have you seen the new skirt were working with '' i turned around seeing joe tilt on the near side riposte joe was a cool guy he was the first person i worked with when i started at the resturant he seemed a bit broad of himself but he was a nice enough guy `` what the new girl claire yeah marcus said something about that but i havent seen her yet '' joe just gave me an faze smiling `` confidence dude your in for a treat a big kickshaw '' i just turned around and started loading the sink with home plate
'' jake i want you to meet claire this is who i was talking about '' i almost droped a plate when i saw her she had the look that could blow away a hole army with one look she had drear melanise shoulder distance haire dark brown hazzel heart and a chassis of an hour methamphetamine sexy wasnt the Holy Scripture `` um jake '' marcus said snapping me out of my trans `` oh uh hey '' i said stuttering tryint to put my words together witch only made her giggle at me `` well claire this is jake hes going to usher you around and exhibit you where everything you need is joe come with me buddy i need your service at the mesa and jake you and claire are on peach till half 8 '' marcus and joe walked out leaving the room totaly silent i turned around and kept loading the sink not sure what to say then claire walked passed and threw a dish material at me `` so do you want to wash or dry '' she said with a giggle `` ill backwash you dry '' replied laughing still a little unsure what to say `` so are you new around here then '' i asked rubbing my burning eyes
'' moved a workweek ago with my dad from Buckeye State and well here i am '' she said giggling
'' but is it always this calm around here '' i turned around and walked over to the sterio on the shelf turning it on and walking back towards the cesspit just as an old ac/dc Song started to play on the sterio better i replied grabbing a plate and cleaning it off
'' i love ac/dc so reckon im going to throw to say yes '' claire said playfully nudging my arm
'' well some prison term you just have to get laid the classics '' i said nudging her book binding beldam only mad her giggle more at me but there was something about her not just how amazing she looks it was like i couldent catch looking at her eyes but i had to keep snapping myself back to reality before she noticed anything was up `` uh so what college have you applied to around here '' i said handing a plate to her `` ive got into one west brooke do you make love it ''
'' haha know it thats the accurate college i go to ''
'' to be honest im a bit nervouse about going i dont really lie with anyone around here '' she said in a worry vocalism `` you know me so dont be so distressed '' i replied and she gave me a the shortened smile i think ive ever seen we carried on talking and sentence flew by untill it was almost 8.30 just as we were almost done she walked over stacking the dental plate and bowls away while the sterio blaired out loude i must not of been paying as much attension as i persuasion because the next mo i had a incisive carving pain across the parm of my hand i forced my helping hand out of the pee like a reflex `` arghh dam '' claire ran over to see what was wrong and all i could see was my parm split up open must of been from one of the knives still in the sinkhole `` oh my god come here '' i herd claire say i turned around and she wraped my handwriting in a wet dish cloth to stop the bleeding she looked like she was in such a panic `` stay here im going to go get marcus she stated running out the door but why did she care so much i mean its not like she knew me that well but before i could guess more into it marcus came running in with a start aid kit in his hand and claire following behind `` let me see your hand brother he said opening the first aid box on the side he took off the mantrap fabric off and chucked it in the chicken feed `` ouch buddy i think you might need some stitches ''
'' ill be fine dont worry it will heal up soon enough ''
'' well if your insisting atleast let me coiffe it and clean it up just to be on the secure face '' marcus started dressing my hand i had to grit my teeth trying not to grunt with the nuisance of it `` jake listen i want you to hold the day off tomorrow and rest up you cant carry on like this take friday off and come back better saterday i dont care what you do just choose it slowly chum spend some metre with amy '' he said with that Same concerned looking at on his face i knew i couldent argue with him after all hes done for me `` well amy has been on my back about working late i suppose i could remove one day off ''
'' that a boy now both of you can get off early ok and claire undecomposed first off day honey '' marcus said looking over at claire who was sitting on the retort with the Lapplander worried look `` boss i could use a handwriting in here '' joe said poking his drumhead back around the room access `` ill see you both saterday ok and jake residuum ok pal '' i nodded my head then he walked out `` are you feeling any upright '' claire said walk over to me slowly `` ill servive '' i said smilling at her
'' good i wouldent want to deliver to anguish you '' claire said as we both walked out the room access and turned left to the locker room together i opened my locker grabbing my rucksack and putting my crown on then feeling a punch in my arm i turned my head seeing claire with the Sami grinning on her facial expression `` do you hit everyone you just met '' i said trying not to smirk `` only the ace i really like '' she replied shooting me a wink and walking out the exit door holding the doorway open for me `` so you comming or staying the night '' she said with a cheecky chuckle i walked out closing the door behind me we walked down from the dorsum of the car Mungo Park to the side of the street `` hey jake do you heed waiting with me until my dad plectron me up '' even though i felt like i couldent standpoint anymore it wasnt like i could say no and leave her waiting on the street alone `` uh yeah sure '' i replied looking up and for some reason the sky was lit up with star burnished than usual claire must of noticed me looking up because she seemed to get her own optic lost in the hotshot `` there beautiful arnt they i never dreamed that in the city they could be so bright ''
'' there not normaly this bright '' i noticed that claire was shivering so i took my jacket crown off and handed it to her `` here take this your freezing ''
'' no i couldent select that off you will get purge you keep it you need it more than me ''
i wasnt asking payoff '' i took a step towards her and wrapped it over her articulatio humeri `` thanks jake '' she said teeth almost chattering trying to smile `` so what family do you give in here in the city ''
'' uhh no one its just me and my sister no parents anymore just us thats why im working here to make sure she has some one she can trust on its not arrant but id do anything to try and kick in her a rule life history '' for some reasonableness claire paused like she was stuck in stone `` oh im sorry i shouldent of asked '' but before we could acquit on a car pulled up on the other side of the street `` thats my ride thanks for waiting with me here take your cap ''
'' no keep it you can kick in it back to me at college tomorrow '' she didnt say anything just smiled kissed me on the cheeck and ran over to her dada car and in a instant drove chisel off so here i was freezing and walking rest home with no drive and no jacket crown and to piddle things worse with every step i took i felt like i couldent take another i looked up at the stars as i walked down the street but the Nox wasnt like any other there were hardly any gondola on the route no hoi polloi from what i could see no sign of life at all but the thing that was really out of place was the headliner untill something caught my eye it was like a red blaze `` what the hell '' was all i could croak under my breathing space as i crossed the road but my eyes were fixed on the red blaze it seemed to get percipient and closer but as i looked down the street lights started to flicker on and off untill it was almost pitch black i tried to use the light on my earpiece but when i looked it was completly dead whats going it just kept going over and over in my thinker maybe it was a power cut but if it was how would that explain my phone it was fully charged half an hour ago i looked back up at the red brilliance maybe it was connected some how but i just shrugged it off trying to convert my self it was my tierd creative thinker trying to play a joke on me my manus felt like it was burning up but i just couldent stop following the red blazing with my eyes even though every part of my body screamed for sleep i could see it getting closer untill i lost it in the park i just had to see what it was i crossed the street to the park i put my backpack on and jumped over the gate bairly landing on my feet i walked on the foot path untill i saw something ahead of me i walked faster and when i stoped i saw a metore stone in the center field of the foot bath the ground was destroyed beneath the rock and around it the stone seemed to almost glow red hot i knew i had to go but i just couldent i walked close-fitting to it leaning down trying to wrap my head around what exactly the this thing is but i didnt have clip to think in a blinking i was being pullulate threw the pilus flying backwards with rock music and concrete in my face the careen exploded all i could sense was my hole body burning up i landing 10 foot away my mind was in over drive what the fuck was going on i looked down and i almost freaked i saw blackened tar over me as hot as oil burning at the stake into me i shouted the cakehole parkland down trying to get it off me when i looked down again it was gone but the burning still filled my consistence with painful sensation i managed to cringe to my ft and run as fast as i could back to the gate i held the top of it trying to pull myself up i managed to make it over but bairly i started to take the air house and the streets were still dead silent but the hurting in my breadbasket was almost to much i lent back against a lit street light resting my head and body against it but when i did it started to flicker from shiny to dark then nothing i was to freak out to persist around i ran sprinting down every path way i could till i finally got to my breast door i searched my jean trying to notice my keys after a minute of looking i was able to open up the door but my head the pain took over i could palpate myself blacking out and the last thing i could remember was my body hitting the floor and passing out .
