Chapter 1

Chris' Point of View

Opening my eye today, I knew that everything would change. And not because I had some feeling or something like that, no. I knew for sure what would happen. I knew that the decision I made was going to affect everyone.

All my life I was invisible for my family. For them there were only my eldest and youngest brothers. They were good at everything and I wasn't. My parents thought that I wasn't clever enough, strong enough, talented enough. I knew that they loved me, but they didn't care about me. I was always left alone at home, I was the one whose birthdays weren't celebrated and many other thing like that. But I was used to it.

My elder brother Wyatt was a good brother, he helped if I asked. He was good at basketball, he graduated from school on the top of his class, not only in sports but also in grades. He was fun, considerate and loving to me, but he was a little distant from and close to my younger brother.

My younger brother Paul was also good at sport. He was an A-student. He was joyful, naïve and incredibly good and compassionate. He loved me, cared and he was happy to have 'two coolest brothers ever'.

Let's back to the point. I made the decision, the decision to leave and never come back. To say the truth I was tired of being forgotten and left alone, scolded at and compared with others. I wanted to have my life, I wanted to be loved and happy. Well, actually I had life my family didn't know about. I had people I considered as my mum and dad. They loved me, cared for me, but it still wasn't enough. Because whether I liked it or not I had to spend more time with my biological family and little by little it was killing me.

My true family, as I called them, was very considerate and loving. They understood me without even having me talking. They knew my weak and strong points. They knew how to help me through hard times. And there were lots of them. Right now I didn't want to remember.

Some people would think why I wanted to leave today. The answer was easy. Today was my eighteenth birthday.

When I came down, nobody even acknowledged me. They were eating their breakfasts and discussing their plans for the day. None of them didn't tell me: 'Happy Birthday!'. But I was ok with it. I knew that this was the last day I suffered being unnoticed and that fact alone made me happy enough.

"Paul, don't forget to take you bag. And call me when the training is over," said Piper and she turned to me. "Chris, you are up late again. I'm tired of phone calls from school telling me that you are skipping your classes. I hope that today I wouldn't get any. And if I will, you're grounded for the day you graduate. Am I clear?"

" Yes," I hang my head. Well, that went well. Oh one more thing about myself: I graduated from high school 4 years ago. And right now I was a student at culinary school. And hell I enjoyed every moment of it. But there was no need for Piper and Leo to know that. I let them live in their imaginary perfect world.

"Now, you should hurry up," Piper's voice interrupted my thoughts. I got up, took my bag and left for 'school'.

I took my bag and left for 'school'. The reason why I was always late getting up was because lessons at culinary school began at 10.30 and not at 9.00. So I always let myself to sleep.

I chose today not only since today Piper and Leo didn't have any control anymore, but because today my exams would start and that would be great beginning for the new life.

Well I left the manor and even appeared at high school, but after the fist period which, by the way, was boring I left for my exams.
