But when the meeting started, Bryan and friends lied that I attacked him first and they été only trying to help him. Then Bryant's father began to yell at mom saying she should teache good manners but mom was the one to tolerate it so she stood up and pointed at Bryant's father "maybe if teach your son toi d his business, we wouldn't be here". "Your son attacked mine and thank God his friends were there to help him". "Your son pushed my son across and he hit hos back behind the lockers" Mike's father said. "And he hit my son on the head, your son is a bully and should be expelled from this school to protect other children". Jason's father said. Mom snapped " my son has always complained about your kids for bullying him and I always told him to ignore them and now that he decided to defend himself everybody's complaining". "My son can't attack him he'll not a bully" Bryan father said. "Well he did and I will be sueing your son for possession of illegal weapon, for a 15 years old that is a serious case for him and also as his father" mom said and everyone was silent. Mike burst into tears and begged mom that he didn't want to go to jail and told everyone how Bryan made them attack me and everyone else on school. Mikes father was angry and begged mom to not press charges and offered her some money but mom rejected. "I don't need your money, I have enough, I'll only withdraw if your kids apologize to my son then we'll be talking". The fathers motioned for their kids to apologize and they did including Bryan who was hesitant. Mom asked if I wanted to let it go and I agreed so she didn't take action but we were suspended for almost a year cause we destroyed some school properties. So I spent all the rest of the year at home but mom always kept me company. There was a new movie that came out on the Cinema so mom took me to see it. We left the house early so we could get the beat seats but on our way o noticed someone behind us, I thought it was just a passerby like us until I noticed him behind us ever since we left the house when we got the Cinema I couldn't see so I decided to ignore him. We were at the line trying to get some tickets when I saw it, it was a man and he looking at me. He eyes they were red but I couldn't see his face. He covered them with a scarf. We stares at each other until mom shook me, "are you okay?, What are you staring at?" She said looking confused at the direction i was looking. Then the man grinned at me and then he was gone, "nothing" i faked a smile and turned to mom. "Come on, we got front row seat" she said excited. I was happy and we hurried inside. I couldn't enjoy the movie even when it was an action one, i kept thinking about thean I saw. Just then I felt someone watching i turned around to see the same man, how did he get in I wondered then he stood up and left. I toldom I was going to bathroom and followed him. He went into a door and when I did it was a dark room I found the switch and turned the lights on but there was no one there. I turned around to leave but it was locked. What, just then someone knocked me down from behind. I woke in bed the next morning with no idea of how I got home. I turned to see mom behind me. "How are you feeling honey?" She said stroking my hair from the look on her face i knew she had cried a lot. "I can't remember, my head hurts so bad". She nodded "the doctor said it would but you have to take some drugs for that" she turned and brought a bottle and poured some tablets out for me to drink. She handed me some water, AMD i gulped it down irritated as I felt the bitter taste as long as it would help the headache o didn't care how it tasted. "Rest now I'll get you something to eat" she said and left i tried to remember but my head everytime I tried to so I let it go. Mom came in with a tray of food and helped me sit up to eat. She watchese on silence. "You should sleep, it'll help you recover" she said and kissed my forehead and picked the tray and left. I laid down and slept off when I woke up mom was not at home. So I went to the living room to watch tv. I was watching when I saw a figure walking behind the house. "Mom?" I called out but got no reply. I went outside to look and saw the same man, "who are you?". He stopped walking and turned to me. "What do you want?". "You know what I want". "If I knew I wouldn't be asking you" i replied. "Brave i like that". "I won't ask again what do you want?". He walked closer to me, "i want your soul". "You will have to kill me first". "Then that will be a lot easier than I expected". He said with a grin before he vanished. "Hey honey am home" i was lost in thought that I didn't know when Mom entered. "How are you doing, does your head still hurt?". "No am fine". "Look i got your favorite ice cream and some burgers". "Thank you" I grabbed the nylon and torw it open and devoured the burger within seconds and I took the plate and ice cream and began to scoop large quantity into my mouth. "Hmmm I could eat this forever". "Does that mean you don't like my food?" Mom asked. "Of course I love your food, mean those one comes second " she smiled. "Alright am going to change, what would you like for desert???". "Nothing, this is enough". "Alright I'll just get some snacks make sure to turn off the lights before going to bed ". "Okay mom, love you ". "Love you too sweetie " she said and left. I continued with my ice cream. After finishing it i just laid back on the chair waiting for it to digest when the lights went off. "Honey could you check the lights for me, i think something wrong with the circuit" i heard mom call out from upstairs. I went downstairs to the basement and fixed the light. As I turned around he stood there watching me with a grin. "We meet again" he said he stood with his hands behind his back. "Here to collect my soul again" i said sarcastic. "Yes but from the way I see you it's not yet time". "Time, how long will it take before I slice you throat?". "Brave and tough, am really loving your personality". "Leave". "You're kicking me out, don't you know that's rude?" He said with a smirk. "Slicing your throat is also rude so you have a choice". "You really know how to use your words am liking you already" he said with a devilsh smile "but I'll be back". "Yeah you can try". "We'll meet again child" he said with a griin and left. Child, am no child i said to myself and went back upstairs. "Thanks honey" i heard mom's voice from the bathroom. I hated when someone calls me child or treat me like one. I wanted to grow fast, i needed to grow fast. Soon summer break was over and school was resuming in a few weeks so I dey to get some new clothes and move out a little, plus my birthday was around the corner. I went to the nearest clothing store and both some hoodie, pants and shirts. On my way home I stopped to watch some kids playing football the ball flew towards me i joggled it before kicking it back and it scored. Everyone looked at me stunned but as usually they all thought me as a freak. So I rushed out of there before they could attack me. I hated being different, i just wanted a normal life for myself, where I could just have fun freely with other kids without being called a freak.
