A Visit From Link Chapter 1: The Birthday

Bruce woke up one morning and realized it was his birthday. He hoped it would be a lot better than the previous year. The year before he had been grounded by his mean uncle Stanley when he had done nothing at al. It was all his cousin's fault. He wanted ever so badly to have a party but because he was grounded all he could do was sit in his room and read Sailer Moon comics that he had gotten that day from his aunt.

This year he had planned to invite his girlfriend Kristen over to his house but at about lunch time she called to tell him she couldn't go anywhere that day because her cat was about to have kittens. He was very disappointed so he ended up inviting Natasha over to his house. It wasn't long before she had convinced him to cheat on Kristen with her.

Later when Kristen called him, his cousin answered the phone and told her everything so she dumped him. It was right then that he realized his birthday was going to be the worst one he had ever had. He was so disappointed that he stole his uncles so called secret stash of weed and got high. That night when his uncle found out he got a good beating and he was grounded for a year.

He went to bed early that night hoping that he wouldn't wake up the next morning. That he'd overdose and die. Of course he did wake up the next morning but life didn't matter to him anymore. All that mattered to him was running away from his uncle's and finding a new place to live.
