It has been 3 days since Maureen asked me to live with her. I liked her. She was a good woman. And today we were going to her home. I was being discharged. The doctor told to come in for regular checkups.
When Maureen saw my burnt brand mark on my back she cried a lot. It was an odd seen a kid consoling an adult that it was alright.
They even sent for a psychiatrist for consultation. Well that did not go well he said the due to the incident i have become a little unsociable. And my intelligence which is above my peers add more to that. This made Maureen worried.
Now good news was that the pig lady was arrested and after the judge and jury saw the photos of mine of burnt mark and bruises. She was sentenced to not so good neighbourhood. The Jail!
Before leaving hospital i borrowed a camera from one of the doctors. I then asked Maureen to sit.
"You know it is uncanny when you talk it is not how a kid talks"She said.
Thank you, i replied now i want to tell you something.
Then i told her how i was the writer of the books her company had published.
Her face was hilarious and i clicked a photo of it. When she heard the click she turned red.
Give me the camera
No way, this is good. And i ran and she came in running behind me.
In the end i had her promise she will help me turn it into a photo.
Well we arrived at her home. It was good. It had a lawn,swimming pool and everything. Guess her buisness was doing good. As i entered the house i thought "It's a beginning".

Note: Slight edits to early chapters (and removal of one chapter - previously chapter 2) have been made 2/2/21 The city, my city, had once been alive in a way that was hard to describe. Thriving, active, hopeful. Vibrant. But life, as I had come to learn, sometimes possesses only the most tenuous of grasps. Finally, in the end, it became my city - mine alone. I was, after all, the only one left. Worse, it was entirely my fault. There was red in my ledger that could never be wiped clean. Not while I still lived, anyway. This story follows Eran, a man who became the opposite of everything he had ever wanted to be; in a world where superpowers began to appear in a rare few, his lack of control over his own power relegated him to the role of a terrible villain - the Reaper, named so for the countless lives that he absorbed and made his own, each only furthering his deadly lack of control. Gone mad with guilt and isolation, he strove for a single heroic act - his own demise. Death was less permanent than he hoped. Centuries later, he woke to a changed world and in a body not his own. Unfortunately, his power came with him. Yet this time, things would be different. This time, he had a chance to bring it under control. He could never truly make up for the things he had done; he could never achieve redemption. That wouldn't stop him from trying to be a hero. Cover courtesy of the amazing Vitaly S Alexius, author of Romantically Apocalyptic. Go check him out!
