Chapter Twenty-Four

I pushed open the double doors that separated the inside of the building from the roof and ran across. I made sure to not trip over anything and lose my balance. One false move, and death would be there to catch me.

Hmm. Do you readers think that Caleb wishes that I was dead? Yeah, yeah. I am more than aware that Caleb is a true Christian and all that, but I would not be all that surprised if I discovered or if he admitted to me that he wanted that. Little do you readers know and little does he remember that he kept me from dying. The fool.

I do hope that you are dying to found out what happened. 'Cause you will be dead by now! Ha!

When I was near the other end, I skidded to a stop and almost fell off the roof. Luckily, I caught my balance and landed on my bottom. I wiped sweat off my forehead and stared into the night sky.

"What do I do now?" I asked myself. "If I retreat, I will surely get caught by those stupid doctors and nurses. But if I escape from the roof...there is only one way out. I...I have to jump. Take a leap of faith."

I sat up and crossed my legs. No way was I taking that risk. I would go splat! and die instantly. So what was I supposed to do now?

Whenever I am feeling anxious, I usually do what always calms me down. Singing. I sang a short, sweet song at the top of the roof.

"Why do I have a family who does not love me?,
Why is my best friend a tad crazy?"
Why does my father,
My creator,
Want me to be someone,
Something,
That I am not?

I did not choose this life,
I did not want to exist,
I never asked,
For your permission to create me,
You are supposed to love me,
So why do you not?,
Is it too hard?

Is it too hard to love?,
I guess so,
There are cruel people,
In this world,
The real world is no better,
I never asked for any,
Of these responsibilities,
Responsibilities.

It is time for a change,
I am due for a change,
The world changes,
So I should too,
I will be,
Powerful and known,
Opposite of gooooooooood!"

First of all, that word is good. Second of all, I sang it like that because I fell off the roof. And no. It was not on accident.

Somebody pushed me.
