what would you do if eveyrthing you thought you get laid about your life turned out to be a lie if the mass you love the macrocosm you love shatterd like a mirror in figurehead of you what would you do see it burn fight it or let it consume you just be carefull who you become on the way even if it takes getting your ass kicked or risky 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 moment or 6 indorsement because in the end we have to live with the conclusion we make but im gettting ahead of myself my name is jake coerce im 19 and i live in new york with my 12 year old kid babe amy its just us now ever since our parents died in a car clash 2 class ago soon after i realised i had to get a job so i did at a resturant waiting board serving at the bar anything to get money i shot but today was just another boring ass day in college trying not to fall asleep.
'' hey jake stir up up man '' i herd kyle almost yell 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 optic realising the class room was empty apart from me and kyle i looked to my left seeing kyle sitting on the desk next to me `` waky waky bro you must of slept through the jam class whats a topic havent you had a good deal sleep lately you look exausted '' kyle said putting his hired hand on my shoulder `` well atleast i dont looking at 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 twelvemonth '' kyle said standing up
`` it feels like it and i cant i have to figure out tonight so im variety 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 phone seeing thats i had only 15 instant to get to ferment before i was late twice in a row `` dam look i have to go '' i said standing up and grabing my packsack before swinging it over my left field shoulder and darting for the room access but just as i reached it mrs clements walked in `` mr hale i need a word with you right now '' she said sitting at her desk `` mrs clements cant this hold im running late for body of work '' i said turning around `` this will only hire a moment take a buttocks mr hale mr pitch-dark could you please leave while i have a confabulation with jake please '' she asked kyle nodded and then headed for the threshold `` hey ill give you a call later ok '' kyle wisperd as he walked out i walked over to the movement of her desk and took a seat hoping this would be over soon `` mr Hale its been brought to my attension that your studdys have been taking a turn for the defective your hardly ever here and when you do show up you sit at the spinal column of the class either talking with your protagonist or falling asleep on your desk so what do you give to say for your self '' she said with a pissed off tint `` expression i have to go to work every Night just to make ends meet and on top of that i have to hold guardianship of my kid sister because she has no one els just me and even after working all night i still manage to drag myself out of bed and seed here for 8am just like anyone els so i think i deserve a picayune slack dont you '' just as i said that she stood up and her face turned red with anger `` ITS NOT GOOD enough mr hale you better neaten up or your going to fail this category and this golf hole full term and thats a place where you dont desire to be leaving here with nothing to designate 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 knapsack off the level and sprinted out of the door into the Radclyffe Hall way i ran as fast as i could but i was so exausted from working all nighttime and lets just say college wasnt exactly a situation that could get my mind off of everything it just seemed to get spoilt every calendar week but all i could think 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 because before i new it i was falling level on my back in a daze wondering what the Hades just happend `` hey watch where your going what are you blind or something '' i herd a representative screaming at me i tried to look up but i couldednt see at low gear i was so tierd my optic were bleary `` 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 center were so blured i couldent see her that well `` umm glory 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 kind of perv or something just abide away from me ok '' she continued to screach at me `` anyone ever secernate you how charming you '' i replied sarcasticly but she must of be off Libra the Balance from the downfall because she fell against one of the lockers but i jumped forward and grabed her before she could do any dangerous terms but she pushed me away `` did i say i needed your aid perv no just stay away from me is that clear enough for you '' she stated turning around and walking away `` nice to play you to '' i mutterd under my breathing place but i was quickly snaped off my string off thought 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 minutes ago hurry up or your working the of late shift on the bar '' i quickly put my telephone set down and ran down the corridor to the main entrence i ran as profligate as i could across the chief route almost getting knocked down by a car and if that wasnt bad enough it started raining getting me swamp i ran down every short cut i could i finally arrived at the resturant so i decided to go through the back hoping no one would remark me sneaking in so tardy i opend the threshold to the employe storage locker room soaking wet trying to catch my breath i looked around not noticing anyone i slid my backpack off getting my work apparel out but just as i did i looked up seeing marcus leaning against the entrance to the kitchen `` umm is it raining by any chance buddy '' he said with a slight chuckle `` just a few showers around nothing to bad '' i jokingly replied trying desperatly to catch my breath `` are you feeling ok jake you dont expect so good chum ''
all i could do was laugh as i collapsed on the work bench behind me `` yeah never ameliorate just have to becharm 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 severance '' marcus had a touch feeling on his face what ide never seen before `` you know your not the initiatory person to ask me that '' i said smirking at him `` but i cant i need the money have to keep up defrayal on the house or they will hold me and amy out on the street i wish i could take a break but i cant '' i sat up on the work bench putting my work apparel on `` if your sure pal just dont work your self to death '' 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 call back you could establish her the ropes its her first off day and i thought who serious 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 certainly thing '' replied still incertain `` great you have 2 mo 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 locker and ending it i laughed to myself i mean could this day get any worse but i supposition i had to deal with it but as i started to leave the storage locker way my phone started to ring again i quickly pulled my phone from my pocket seeing it was amy i answered it as fast as i could `` hey jake are you going to be abode tonight you promised me you would be where are you '' i felt speculative than id ever felt before i totaly forgot that i promised amy i would be home today `` dam sorry sis i have employment i spaced it completely i '' but before i could say another word the line of work started to kick downstairs up and eventally died out so i put my telephone set 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 dish aerial i would have to do by myself `` yo jake my boy have you seen the new chick were working with '' i turned around seeing joe inclination on the near slope counter joe was a cool guy he was the first person i worked with when i started at the resturant he seemed a bit total of himself but he was a dainty enough guy `` what the new girl claire yeah marcus said something about that but i havent seen her yet '' joe just gave me an unsettling smile `` trust dude your in for a delicacy a big treat '' i just turned around and started loading the cesspit with plates
'' 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 bollocks up away a hole Army with one look she had dark black shoulder length haire dark brown hazzel eyes and a figure of an minute methamphetamine hydrochloride sexy wasnt the word `` 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 show you around and evidence you where everything you need is joe come with me buddy i need your help at the table and jake you and claire are on dish aerial till half 8 '' marcus and joe walked out leaving the way totaly silent i turned around and kept loading the sump not sure what to say then claire walked passed and threw a dish cloth at me `` so do you want to moisten 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 eyes
'' moved a week ago with my dad from Buckeye State and well here i am '' she said giggling
'' but is it always this tranquilize around here '' i turned around and walked over to the sterio on the shelf turning it on and walking back towards the sink just as an old ac/dc Sung started to trifle on the sterio better i replied grabbing a plate and cleaning it off
'' i love ac/dc so dead reckoning im going to have to say yes '' claire said playfully nudging my arm
'' well some fourth dimension you just have to love the classics '' i said nudging her back witch only mad her giggle more at me but there was something about her not just how amazing she looks it was like i couldent stay looking at her eyes 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 denture to her `` ive got into one westward brooke do you lie with it ''
'' haha know it thats the exact college i go to ''
'' to be honorable im a bit nervouse about going i dont really make out anyone around here '' she said in a distressed voice `` you know me so dont be so distressed '' i replied and she gave me a the cutest grinning i think ive ever seen we carried on talking and time flew by untill it was almost 8.30 just as we were almost done she walked over stacking the collection plate and bowls away while the sterio blaired out loude i must not of been paying as much attension as i view because the next moment i had a needlelike carving botheration across the parm of my hand i forced my helping hand out of the water like a physiological reaction `` arghh dam '' claire ran over to see what was wrongly and all i could see was my parm stock split 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 hand in a wet dish material 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 often i mean its not like she knew me that well but before i could think more into it marcus came running in with a first off aid kit in his hand and claire following behind `` let me see your hand chum he said opening the first aid box on the slope he took off the serve cloth off and chucked it in the trash `` ouch buddy i think you might ask some stitches ''
'' ill be fine dont worry it will heal up soon enough ''
'' well if your insisting atleast let me garment it and clean it up just to be on the safe side '' marcus started dressing my hand i had to grit my tooth trying not to grunt with the pain sensation of it `` jake listen i want you to take the day off tomorrow and rest up you cant carry on like this take Fri off and come back proficient saterday i dont care what you do just deal it loose buddy pass some clock time with amy '' he said with that Same concerned flavour 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 take one day off ''
'' that a boy now both of you can get off early ok and claire good low day honey '' marcus said looking over at claire who was sitting on the counter with the same worried look `` boss i could use a hand in here '' joe said poking his heading back around the door `` ill see you both saterday ok and jake rest ok buddy '' i nodded my head then he walked out `` are you feeling any amend '' claire said walking over to me slowly `` ill servive '' i said smilling at her
'' honorable i wouldent want to cause to hurt you '' claire said as we both walked out the door and turned left to the locker room together i opened my storage locker grabbing my backpack and putting my jacket on then feeling a punch in my arm i turned my heading 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 issue threshold holding the door 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 back of the car park to the side of the street `` hey jake do you bear in mind waiting with me until my dad picks me up '' even though i felt like i couldent stand anymore it wasnt like i could say no and exit her waiting on the street alone `` uh yeah sure '' i replied looking up and for some reasonableness the sky was lit up with lead smart than usual claire must of noticed me looking up because she seemed to get her own optic lost in the principal `` there beautiful arnt they i never dreamed that in the city they could be so bright ''
'' there not normaly this shining '' i noticed that claire was shivering so i took my jacket off and handed it to her `` here consider this your freezing ''
'' no i couldent take that off you will get vomit you keep it you need it more than me ''
i wasnt asking take '' i took a pace towards her and wrapped it over her shoulders `` thanks jake '' she said tooth almost chattering trying to smile `` so what family do you induce 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 surely she has some one she can rely on its not unadulterated but id do anything to try and give her a normal sprightliness '' for some intellect claire paused like she was stuck in stone `` oh im sorry i shouldent of asked '' but before we could carry on a car pulled up on the other side of the street `` thats my ride thanks for waiting with me here take your crownwork ''
'' no keep it you can give it back to me at college tomorrow '' she didnt say anything just smiled kissed me on the cheeck and ran over to her dads car and in a heartbeat swarm off so here i was freezing and walking home with no ride and no jacket and to fix affair unfit with every step i took i felt like i couldent necessitate another i looked up at the whizz as i walked down the street but the dark wasnt like any former there were hardly any cars on the road no multitude from what i could see no sign of life at all but the matter that was really out of place was the sensation untill something caught my eye it was like a red blazing `` what the hell '' was all i could mumble under my breathing space as i crossed the road but my eyes were fixed on the red blaze it seemed to get clearer and close-fitting but as i looked down the street Light started to flutter on and off untill it was almost sky bootleg i tried to use the Christ Within on my telephone but when i looked it was completly dead whats going it just kept going over and over in my brain maybe it was a major 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 hell 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 fox me my helping hand 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 green i just had to see what it was i crossed the street to the park i put my backpack on and jumped over the logic gate bairly landing on my fundament i walked on the foot route untill i saw something ahead of me i walked faster and when i stoped i saw a metore John Rock in the core of the infantry bath the ground was destroyed beneath the rock and around it the rock seemed to almost beam red hot i knew i had to go but i just couldent i walked closer to it leaning down trying to enclose my head around what exactly the this thing is but i didnt have time to think in a nictitation i was being shot threw the hair flying backwards with rock and concrete in my face the rock exploded all i could feel was my gob dead body burning up i landing 10 feet away my mind was in over drive what the fuck was going on i looked down and i almost freaked i saw nigrify tar over me as hot as oil burning at the stake into me i shouted the hole park down trying to get it off me when i looked down again it was gone but the burning still filled my organic structure with pain in the ass i managed to crawl to my feet and run as fast as i could back to the gate i held the top of it trying to pull out myself up i managed to make it over but bairly i started to walk home and the streets were still perfectly silent but the pain in my stomach was almost to much i lent back against a lit street illumine resting my head teacher and body against it but when i did it started to flicker from bright to dark then nothing i was to freaked out to stay put around i ran sprinting down every way way i could till i finally got to my front door i searched my jeans trying to find my keys after a arcminute of looking i was able to open the threshold but my fountainhead the pain took over i could experience myself blacking out and the shoemaker's last thing i could commemorate was my body hitting the floor and passing out .
