Underneath My Skin - Original Writing :: Papers

Underneath My Skin - Original Writing I am 15 years old, and I scorn my life. My parents are dead, I have no friends, I get bullied every day, and the worst of it is that I cant do anything about it. I now live in Omaha, Nebraska with my aunt, Patrice, who just made 21 and is never kinsperson. She is my last living relative. At school this kid named Brian messes me all the time. I never fight fend for because Im just peaceful like that. I get good grades (I have nothing else to do with my spare time except homework). I earn my have got money by playing craps behind the school with loaded dice. Thats why I dont have any friends. So I was walking home and here comes Brian with his sidekick Jim. Brian says, Hey punk hows it goin? Then Jim says, Yeah punk. I say, Im doing fine. Gimme all your money, or my fist and your face will become good friends. Then he pushes me. All of a sudden, something came everyplace and I just start wailing on the guy. I get up, look at Jim and say, You want some of this? He stands there in fear for a while and runs away. The rest of the way home I kept thinking about what happened, thinking about what came over me. In the middle of deep thought, I heard a voice say, It was me. I looked around and no one was there. So I blew it off and went on home. I got home, laid on my bed still thinking about what happened. There was that voice again, It was me. Makius. Now I knew something was up. Whos there? I said. You dont see me except I know you very well, said the voice. You know me, I said. The voice then said, Yes, I know about the time when someone tripped you and everyone laughed. I know about the time when some bully stole your shoes, and wore them the next day.
