My father chose to give the spot to her.
A four year old girl going to an elite primary school just because she was a bit smarter was crazy!
I ended up homeless in this city with you in this small corner as a roommate.
The End
"I know you are lying," Jim said; and after a long pause muttered in a shy tone
" You are one of the smartest people I know in my life and I met people on my journey as a musician. There is no way that some child was smarter. What really happened in between you becoming broke and the choice your father made? ",
- " Doesn't matter anyway. It's not like it will change the past if I talk about me. "
" True. ", he said.
He then spotted a new late night walker and pleaded with him for money while pointing at me, as always, I was the one to use for pity because I was 14.
" Yessss! 10 copper coins this time. We can buy a real meal. Little boy you are a gift from heaven itself. "
- " The only time you care about me is when you're bored or when I get you money. "
After a short argument, we decided that we would use the money we gained today for food only.
What I mean by that is that Jim and I had to choose between two things everyday: Sleep or Food.
On days when we felt that we could manage our hunger we would got into an inn and beg the shopkeeper for two small mats and a little corner he could give us to sleep inside his warm inn for the night.
After eating, we slept on cardboard mats on the rough floor.
In the morning, Jim was the first to wake up and he called me by my first name.
He only did this two times in our whole period of knowing each other.
The first time was when I showed my ID to a shopkeeper to enter a free lottery event and that he managed to get a glance on it and said it.
I immediately told him to never say it again because I didn't like it.
I had the same name as my father.
The second time he did was when a police officer was running in our direction when he saw us in a huge public space that attracted tourists.
" What the hell is happening, Dave! Wake up! Wake up! ", he had difficulty pronouncing his sentence as if he was scared; and he was.
" I told you to never call me that again ! Call me Morek that's my mom's last name and my middle name. I already told you! ", I said while waking up.
I looked at the direction that Jim was pointing and saw something that was monstrous yet beautiful. It looked surreal and was transparent or close to it at least. It descended from the sky with 6 wings and if you looked at it really carefully, you would see its only colored features. Its black eyes that were like looking at an endless void and an object that looked like a microphone.
" Ah, ITS TIME FOR OUR BIGGEST EVENT !"
