Opera House: Hey folks! It my first ever story and this is the first ever chapter. Please read it and please review! *crosses finger* And, I am a beginner in this profession. *bows lowly*
Daddy's shoulders are no longer
the highest place on Earth;
I don't know how to feel, except
I know what it's like to hurt.
I'm sorry I'm hollering but
I'd do anything for that one-last-dollar
even if I don't know it yet.
I'm not afraid to scream now,
Especially when I wonder how;
Why did I grow up?Chapter One
"Fine! I'll leave!" A 15-year old brunette shouted from the flight of stairs. "And I'll never come back! Ever! And I don't have a family starting now!" She was packing her things up with tears flowing from her hazel eyes.
Her own parents are throwing her out, at the tender age of fifteen.
"Yes! We are no family of yours! You're just a brat in our den! Now get out of here and stink outside!" Her mother announced as she was calmly drinking her morning tea.
"Leave in fifteen minutes or else you're dead." Her father said dangerously while reading his morning paper.
Yes, it was morning.
It was New Year and at the same time it was Mikan Sakura's 15th birthday.
But this has to be her worst nightmare, her worst birthday.
"Don't worry. I'll leave this hell in a minute."She said in gritted teeth. She tried to suppress her tears but failed miserably. They just kept on flowing.

She was finished packing up, all her belongings, and all the things she have. Not one single possession she left in her room.
Mikan stood up and faced her oh-so-caring parents and said, "I'm leaving." With her luggage beside her.
"Go on and never ever comeback." Her father said, reading his morning paper and sipping his tea.
Hiccup
"We are so glad that for fifteen long, exhausting years we were able to get rid of you. Shoo now!" Her mother said, gesturing that she should go out now and eyed her as if she is a disgusting being.
Hiccup
She hurriedly ran outside. Passing by a young boy whose age is nine and who was playing sand.
"Sister, where are you going?" Her little brother asked, placing his plastic shovel down and ran towards her tear-stained sister, "You are carrying a lot. You need help?" he smiled ever-so-purely as his hands reached for her bag.
And then again, tears kept on rolling down. She ran, leaving her little brother bewildered.
She ran and never even said her goodbyes to her little brother and family.
She ran and never looked back.
She ran and promised to herself that she'll never ever comeback.
**Present Time**
"Gah!" A twenty-year old brunette woke up from her frightening dream. She was panting so hard, sweating a lot and her pulse is drumming in her ears. She looked at the time and it says: 12:05 a.m.
She smiled and said to herself, "Happy Birthday to me, Mikan Sakura."
At that moment, fireworks descend in the sky and cheers from the people outside.
At that moment, she is twenty-one years old.
**6:30 in the morning, January 01, 2011**
Her condo was simple. A balcony, a twin-sized bed, a fully equipped living room and kitchen. It was enough for one person and she is living on her own. Yet, it was only the home she could afford. She thought it was better rather than having nothing at all.
Mikan Sakura has been living on her own ever since she was 15 years old. She finished studying because of her grandparents in U.S. She got a job because of her best friend, Hotaru Imai, who got her in a fancy restaurant named 'Cossette' as a waitress and a cook. She is paid well and uses her salary to pay her condo unit, whose condo's owner name is Hotaru Imai.
Note: It was one of Hotaru Imai's low class condo units. Such a best friend she is.
It was her birthday.
Ever since she separated (or kicked out from her home by her own parents), she is always celebrating her birthday on her own. Not even her best friend about her birthday; no one knew when her birthday is. It is almost that her birthday holds no significant meaning.
New Year's Day was as the same date as her birthday.
Instead of having fun (just like what normal people does during this special holiday), she always remembered that faithful day when her own parents disowned her. She always asked why? Why her parents did that, she has been a good girl, a straight A student, top of the class, the class representative. She has been a kind, understanding daughter. Every parent wants her as a daughter, she thought.
By just remembering that, tears flowed out her eyes. She was getting ready to meet Hotaru because she told her on the phone that she will be recruiting Mikan for a job, a job that only she can do.
Mikan gave Hotaru a go signal, even though she didn't know what the job is, as long as the pay is good, she'll accept it.
She wiped the tears out of her eyes, straightened up, "Forget the past and move on!" then slapped her face slightly. "Just think about happy thoughts that will happen today." She smiled.
She locked the door and placed her key on her blue sling bag. And walked towards Cossette with her skinny jeans and fitting violet top with flats.
Not knowing, that the unknown job will change everything she has worked hard for the past years.
End of Chapter One
We need to learn from our mistakes
Not make all the new ones
Please for God's sakes
Before the youth of the nation runs
Away from all the problems
We now, in present, face
Beat the evil before it blossoms
We don't know the answers we chase
Opera House: So, there you have it! *heart thumping so badly* Tell me what you think, what you feel, and its okay to criticize because hard critiques are needed in the society to perfect imperfections! *heart thumping hardly again*
( I changed something. Specifically the date. I just noticed it now. )
