I researched and went to all the libraries I know,still I found nothing but something in me could not just let it go.None of it made sense.I kept on talking to my gran about it and she could not stop telling me to drop it but this time i chose to stick to my guns.Something changed in me.I was never like this before but I like it.I just do not have to show any disrespect to her because she is the only parent i have and ever known and she also taught me well.Days passed and i did not hear anything about Sam and Caleb but wherever they are I hope they learnt their lesson.My off days were getting over and i had to prepare for school but I was not ready.I wanted more time to get back to my usual self but gran did not budge because i will be left behind with important schoolwork and fail and repeat a grade.I even introduced the idea of getting me home schooled but she said no because she thinks I will miss out on childhood opportunities and having friends and and the list goes on. I did not care about any of tha because,hello I grew up alone.
Adam's POV
I took a walk down the street to Aunt Janes house to buy some cookies for gran plus I needed some air too.I have been cooped around the house or in my room,should I say?a lot lately without getting my head out.The streets were calm and clean as everyone was at school.Perfect time for me,I thought to myself.As I was walking,a ball hit my head.I turned back and saw Sam and Caleb. They kind of looked bad.I guess I kind of did some damage there,ouch."Yo schmuck, we are coming for you,You are going to pay" Caleb said with his hand covered in bandage."nyunyunyu nyunyuuu,like you look like a threat cowards" I replied.They were both discharged from the hospital.I wanted to throw the ball back and probably hit some head but i left it there and continued walking.A dog's bark came from my behind.It was Caleb's dog,he let it out.It ran towards me with its heavy mouth dripping saliva. I picked up a stick, I always had a thing with dogs.It came to me and i took the stick,put it in its mouth and played played with it.Caleb shouted "Bite him boy,Bite him"
Instead I had the dog eating at the of my hand.I gave it tickles on its stomach.Caleb and Sam fetched the dog.They came in disappointment hoping that the dog would bit me,but it did not.Caleb took his dog and went back as I carried on my journey to aunt Jane's. Finally arrived and there was no cue."Ad,How are you doing?i heard on the grapevine that you fainted in school. are you okay now she asked.Talking about shooting from the hip."I am much better now,thank you.Can I have two extra cookies please? I said to avoid more questions."Send my regards to your gran" I nodded with a smile.I held my breath and exited her house.I took another route to my house to avoid getting into trouble.When I got home I told gran about Sam and Caleb.She then said she saw everything including what they did,she followed me.She said i must let them be ,one day they will meet their mates.I have to focus on my self and school.My 15th birthday was approaching.I was never excited about those because I only get to play at the park and eat ice cream.Same thing every year,routine.This time I felt kind of different.I felt like trying out new things maybe learning how to swim.
I was excited about my facial hair.I could not wait to get pubic hair since i am a teenager.Days passed and i went back to school. I tried staying out of trouble as much as possible even though some kids kept on provoking me.I had to keep my distance.I heard Sam and Caleb were on suspension,good riddance to bad rubbish.I made friends with Candy.Candy has autism and no one wanted to play with her because of her condition.Autism is an abnormal absorption with the self,marked by communication disorders and short attention span and inability to treat others as people.It was something she was born with,just like the ears I have.I did not judge or treat her bad because i kind of understood her situation.She liked my ears and said that they are attractive.She had black hair and liked wearing pink shoes and had pink stationary.It was pretty for me.Oh and she had braces too which made her even more cute.We became good friends.My grandmother liked her and she would sometimes invite her into the house.Her mom liked me too but her dad had to take our friendship with a pinch of salt even though he said i am the first true friend she has ever had,so I took it he accepted.
