Young
Chapter One

The day started as it usually did. Groggily, Jess leaned over to hit the snooze clit on my alarm clock. He was so tired because he had been doing thirty hours a week at workplace lately and he was n't sleeping well because of his home life. Add in school day and the homework that came along with it and it was midnight or later by the time he got to bed."Who invented these things anyway ? ”, he thought as he climbed out of bed.

Showered and dressed, he went downstairs to get some breakfast."Hi Jess ”, his brother and baby said to him, almost in unison."Hi ”, he replied back. After eating breakfast, he went back upstairs to brush his teeth. Then he came downstairs again and went to see his mother. Jess always went to his mother 's way and said"unspoilt morning time"to her before leaving for school. Why he still did, he was n't sure. He had become so distant, there was no real connection left."Probably just out of wont ”, he told himself. He kissed his mother goodbye and then left with his brother for school.

In the car, he and his brother did n't talk much. It was n't that they did n't like each former, but Jess and Luke had very small in common these days. They had different friends, Luke being more of a social butterfly ; different tastes in music, Jess listened to more heavy metallic element and stone, while Gospel of Luke was more into the pop euphony aspect ; etc ... Once they got to school, that was it. The car ride there was the most metre they spent with each other in a day and whichever one was n't driving that day just stared at their telephone the entire ride.

Everyday he dreaded going to school. highschool School had never been"as advertised"to Jess. He was a lone wolf, an outcast. He had not even a fistful of friends, everyone knew everyone, but that was about it. Recently he had been feeling more and more depressed, his sentiment sometimes turning to suicide. Home spirit was ... well it was n't a dwelling anymore ...

"Good morning Mr. horse ”, said his homeroom teacher, Mr. Toer."sunup ”, Jess replied back. He took his seat and started on the homework he did n't finish endure night. Math was a particularly hard guinea pig for Jess. He was just one bad grade away from failing the topic for the semester, but at this stage that was the endure thing on his mind. Staring at the blank shroud of paper in social movement of him, his mind started to wander."What am I even doing here ? I have no use, no desire, no happiness. If I decided to just run away today, will anyone care ? Will my parents notice if I 'm not there ?"The Vanessa Stephen for the end of homeroom rang, jolting him back into awareness."Damn it ”, he thought, realizing he had n't done a single problem.

When the bell rang at 3:05, he was already driving away from schooling ( his brother was in ROTC and stayed for after-school activity ), his foot to the floor and the tuner blaring. Music had become Jess'only reprieve from his life history and he was retreating into it more and more, barely paying tending to anything else. medicine made him feel powerful, made him feel like he had a understanding to exist. It seemed that the lyric of the song on the tuner spoke directly to him, lifting him up, making him feel well-chosen that someone, somewhere understood what he felt.

When he got home, Jess went straight to his room. As he was changing into his piece of work uniform, he took a aspect at himself in the mirror. He was 16, had long, dark Robert Brown whisker, electric puritanical eyes, was about six base tall, and had slim eubstance. The person staring back at him looked so far away, it looked like him, but it was n't him. The eyes of the person in the mirror looked so scourge and empty it was shocking. Sighing to himself, he turned off the light and headed to work.

At workplace that Night, he just floated aimlessly through the evening, barely engaging the customers, just wanting the night to end so that he could go menage and sleep. Sleep, the one affair and one time of the day when he did n't feel vacuous, lifeless. When did n't feel anything but repose. The future day was Sat and he did n't give to go to influence or school so he could catch some Z's all through the Nox and well into the dawn.

Opening the door to his house after employment, Jess got a halfhearted"Hi"from his parents. The kind of"hi"that you say out of politeness, not because you actually meant it. He replied back, asked if anyone had made dinner that night, and then went to his room. Turning on his computer, he checked his email. As common, it was just a clump of spam, but then Jess saw the electronic mail. Wesley had responded to him ! Jess read the electronic mail, then shut off his calculator and got into bed. Falling asleep, he smiled to himself, feeling some small sense of hope.
