what would you do if eveyrthing you thought you live about your life-time turned out to be a lie if the citizenry you love the world you love shatterd like a mirror in front of you what would you do find out it burn fight it or let it ware 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 self on the way but either way thoughs are the moments that define us that shape us it doesnt matter if it takes 6 minutes or 6 secondment because in the end we have to know with the decisions we make but im gettting ahead of myself my name is jake hale 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 wait tables serving at the bar anything to get money i guess but today was just another tiresome ass day in college trying not to lessen asleep.
'' hey jake wake up man '' i herd kyle almost shout at me and if your wondering kyle is a friend 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 socio-economic class room was empty apart from me and kyle i looked to my leave behind sightedness kyle sitting on the desk next to me `` waky waky bro you must of slept through the muddle course of study whats a matter havent you had a good deal quietus lately you look exausted '' kyle said putting his manus 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 little girl 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 jargon i have to wreak tonight so im kind of tighed up at the import `` i replied realising how late it must of been so i quickly reached in my pocket and pulled out my earpiece seeing thats i had only 15 minute to get to solve before i was lately twice in a row `` dam look i have to go '' i said standing up and grabing my backpack before swinging it over my leave shoulder joint and darting for the doorway but just as i reached it mrs clements walked in `` mr hale i need a discussion 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 contain a moment take a bum mr hale mr melanize could you please pull up stakes while i have a New World chat with jake please '' she asked kyle nodded and then headed for the door `` hey ill give you a call later ok '' kyle wisperd as he walked out i walked over to the front of her desk and took a butt 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 bear witness up you sit at the spine of the class either talking with your Friend or falling asleep on your desk so what do you have to say for your self '' she said with a pissed off tone `` look i have to go to work every night just to bring in close meet and on top of that i have to take upkeep of my kid sister because she has no one els just me and even after working all night i still grapple to sweep myself out of bed and come here for 8am just like anyone els so i think i deserve a piddling slack dont you '' just as i said that she stood up and her boldness turned red with anger `` ITS NOT good enough mr George Ellery Hale you better straighten up or your going to fail this class and this hollow condition and thats a place where you dont want to be leaving here with nothing to prove for it '' i looked up and just gave her a smug smile
`` is that all '' i replied but before she could answer i grabed my packsack off the floor and sprinted out of the door into the hall way i ran as degraded 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 judgment off of everything it just seemed to get big every week but all i could mean of was that i couldent be late again i had to be on time because marcus would kill me i must of been lost in thought because before i new it i was falling 2-dimensional on my back in a shock wondering what the hell just happend `` hey lookout where your going what are you blind or something '' i herd a spokesperson shrieking at me i tried to wait up but i couldednt see at first i was so tierd my eyes were blurry `` what are you deff as well '' i herd the girlish voice 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 aura what am i talking to myself or something '' she screached at me `` grim i didnt realise where i was going '' i said standing up `` what are you some variety of perv or something just stay away from me ok '' she continued to screach at me `` anyone ever tell you how charming you '' i replied sarcasticly but she must of be off balance from the evenfall because she fell against one of the lockers but i jumped forward and grabed her before she could do any life-threatening legal injury but she pushed me away `` did i say i needed your help perv no just stay away from me is that clear enough for you '' she stated turning around and walking away `` squeamish to run into you to '' i mutterd under my breath but i was quickly snaped off my railroad train off thought when my telephone started to ring i quckly answered it not looking at the number `` jake its marcus where are you we expected you here 5 hour ago hurry up or your working the late chemise on the bar '' i quickly put my earphone down and ran down the corridor to the main entrence i ran as debauched as i could across the briny road almost getting knocked down by a car and if that wasnt bad enough it started raining getting me drenched i ran down every unretentive 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 late i opend the door to the employe footlocker room soaking wet trying to fascinate my breath i looked around not noticing anyone i slid my back pack off getting my piece of 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 hazard pal '' he said with a slight chuckle `` just a few exhibitor around nothing to bad '' i jokingly replied trying desperatly to catch my breather `` are you feeling ok jake you dont look so good pal ''
all i could do was laugh as i collapsed on the work Bench behind me `` yeah never bettor just have to catch my breathing space '' marcus walked over to me and sat down on the work 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 break '' marcus had a have-to doe with feeling on his face what ide never seen before `` you know your not the start person to ask me that '' i said smirking at him `` but i buzzword i need the money have to keep up defrayal on the house or they will throw me and amy out on the street i wish i could remove a intermission but i camber '' i sat up on the work bench putting my work apparel on `` if your sure crony just dont work your self to destruction '' 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 ropes its her first day and i sentiment who meliorate than you '' i paused confused for a second marcus always tells me about new employes oh well it wasnt like i could say no `` uh yeah sure thing '' replied still unsure `` great you have 2 minute to get fix 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 could this day get any bad but i guesswork i had to deal with it but as i started to bequeath the locker room my phone started to ring again i quickly pulled my phone from my air pocket seeing it was amy i answered it as fast as i could `` hey jake are you going to be home tonight you promised me you would be where are you '' i felt regretful than id ever felt before i totaly forgot that i promised amy i would be home today `` dam dismal sis i have oeuvre i spaced it completely i '' but before i could say another password the line started to let on up and eventally died out so i put my earpiece 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 swallow hole turning the tap on looking at how many dishes i would have to do by myself `` yo jake my boy have you seen the new biddy were working with '' i turned around seeing joe lean on the cheeseparing face parry joe was a cool guy he was the first individual i worked with when i started at the resturant he seemed a bit full of himself but he was a nice enough guy `` what the new little girl claire yeah marcus said something about that but i havent seen her yet '' joe just gave me an unsettling smiling `` trust dude your in for a delicacy 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 gob ground forces with one spirit she had colored black shoulder joint distance haire darkness brown hazzel eyes and a shape of an hour glass sexy wasnt the word `` um jake '' marcus said snapping me out of my trans `` oh uh hey '' i said stuttering tryint to put my speech together witch only made her giggle at me `` well claire this is jake hes going to show you around and show you where everything you need is joe come with me buddy i need your avail at the table and jake you and claire are on dishes 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 cloth at me `` so do you require to wash or dry '' she said with a giggle `` ill wash you dry '' replied laughing still a little unsure what to say `` so are you new around here then '' i asked rubbing my burning centre
'' moved a week ago with my dad from ohio and well here i am '' she said giggling
'' but is it always this tranquil around here '' i turned around and walked over to the sterio on the shelf turning it on and walking back towards the cesspool just as an old ac/dc birdsong started to meet on the sterio better i replied grabbing a plate and cleaning it off
'' i love ac/dc so guess im going to have to say yes '' claire said playfully nudging my arm
'' well some times you just have to love the classic '' i said nudging her back crone only mad her giggle more at me but there was something about her not just how amazing she looks it was like i couldent point looking at her heart but i had to keep snapping myself back to realness before she noticed anything was up `` uh so what college have you applied to around here '' i said handing a shell to her `` ive got into one West Brooke do you know it ''
'' haha know it thats the take college i go to ''
'' to be honest im a bit nervouse about going i dont really know anyone around here '' she said in a worried voice `` you know me so dont be so worried '' i replied and she gave me a the cut grin 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 home plate and bowls away while the sterio blaired out loude i must not of been paying as a great deal attension as i thought because the next here and now i had a astute cutting painful sensation across the parm of my helping hand i forced my hand out of the H2O like a unconditioned reflex `` arghh dam '' claire ran over to see what was wrong and all i could see was my parm split open must of been from one of the knife still in the sinkhole `` oh my god come here '' i herd claire say i turned around and she wraped my hired man in a wet lulu material to stop the bleeding she looked like she was in such a scare `` stay here im going to go get marcus she stated running out the room access but why did she care so a good deal i mean its not like she knew me that well but before i could recall more into it marcus came running in with a first aid kit in his hand and claire following behind `` let me see your hand buddy he said opening the first aid box on the incline he took off the serve material off and chucked it in the trash `` ouch buddy i think you might demand some stitches ''
'' ill be hunky-dory dont worry it will heal up soon enough ''
'' well if your insisting atleast let me lop it and strip it up just to be on the safe face '' marcus started dressing my hand i had to grit my teeth trying not to grunt with the botheration of it `` jake listen i want you to take the day off tomorrow and pillow up you cant transport on like this take friday off and amount back better saterday i dont care what you do just rent it comfortable crony spend some prison term with amy '' he said with that same interest face 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 later i suppose i could take away one day off ''
'' that a boy now both of you can get off early ok and claire good first day love '' marcus said looking over at claire who was sitting on the counter with the same worried flavor `` boss i could use a hand in here '' joe said poking his read/write head back around the room access `` ill see you both saterday ok and jake residuum ok buddy '' i nodded my read/write head then he walked out `` are you feeling any better '' claire said walking over to me slowly `` ill servive '' i said smilling at her
'' good i wouldent want to have to wound you '' claire said as we both walked out the door and turned left to the storage locker room together i opened my footlocker grabbing my backpack and putting my cap on then feeling a clout in my arm i turned my forefront seeing claire with the same grin on her face `` do you hit everyone you just met '' i said trying not to simper `` only the unity i really like '' she replied shooting me a wink and walking out the exit door holding the threshold candid for me `` so you comming or staying the night '' she said with a cheecky chortle i walked out closing the door behind me we walked down from the vertebral column of the car park to the incline of the street `` hey jake do you mind waiting with me until my dad plectrum me up '' even though i felt like i couldent stand anymore it wasnt like i could say no and depart her waiting on the street alone `` uh yeah sure '' i replied looking up and for some reason the sky was lit up with stars brighter than common claire must of noticed me looking up because she seemed to get her own eyes lost in the stars `` there beautiful arnt they i never dreamed that in the metropolis they could be so smart ''
'' there not normaly this bright '' i noticed that claire was shivering so i took my jacket off and handed it to her `` here conduct this your freezing ''
'' no i couldent convey that off you will get sick you keep it you need it more than me ''
i wasnt asking payoff '' i took a gradation towards her and wrapped it over her shoulders `` thanks jake '' she said teeth almost chattering trying to smile `` so what family do you have in here in the city ''
'' uhh no one its just me and my baby no parents anymore just us thats why im working here to make for sure she has some one she can rely on its not perfect but id do anything to try and consecrate her a normal liveliness '' for some intellect claire paused like she was stuck in Harlan Fiske Stone `` oh im sorry i shouldent of asked '' but before we could carry on a car pulled up on the early face of the street `` thats my ride thanks for waiting with me here take your cap ''
'' no hold on it you can feed 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 flash drove off so here i was freezing and walking home with no drive and no jacket crown and to make things worsened with every step i took i felt like i couldent take another i looked up at the genius as i walked down the street but the night wasnt like any other there were hardly any cars on the road no masses from what i could see no sign of biography at all but the affair that was really out of place was the lead untill something caught my eye it was like a red blaze `` what the hell '' was all i could mutter under my breather as i crossed the road but my eyes were fixed on the red blaze it seemed to get clearer and closer but as i looked down the street lights started to flutter on and off untill it was almost rake Black person i tried to use the lightness on my telephone set but when i looked it was completly absolutely whats going it just kept going over and over in my nous 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 glare maybe it was connected some how but i just shrugged it off trying to convince my ego it was my tierd mind trying to play a joke on me my script felt like it was burning up but i just couldent stop following the red hell with my oculus even though every function of my body screamed for sopor 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 knapsack on and jumped over the gate bairly landing on my feet i walked on the invertebrate foot way of life untill i saw something ahead of me i walked faster and when i stoped i saw a metore rock in the center of the foot bath the background was destroyed beneath the rock 'n' roll and around it the rock seemed to almost glow red hot i knew i had to go but i just couldent i walked closer to it leaning down trying to wrap my head around what exactly the this thing is but i didnt have metre to retrieve in a blink i was being shot threw the haircloth flying backwards with rock and concrete in my font the rock-and-roll exploded all i could sense was my hole body burning up i landing 10 feet away my creative thinker was in over effort what the fuck was going on i looked down and i almost freaked i saw black-market tar over me as hot as oil burning at the stake into me i shouted the fix park down trying to get it off me when i looked down again it was gone but the electrocution still filled my body with pain i managed to cower to my feet 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 walk rest home and the streets were still deadened silent but the pain in my stomach was almost to often i lent back against a lit street loose resting my pass and body against it but when i did it started to flicker from brilliantly to dark then nothing i was to freak out out to ride out around i ran sprinting down every route way i could till i finally got to my forepart room access i searched my jeans trying to find my keys after a instant of looking i was able-bodied to spread the door but my promontory the pain took over i could feel myself blacking out and the hold out thing i could commend was my soundbox hitting the storey and passing out .
