…You know those days when you stop and think about something and you get really excited, but when you think about it a little bit more, you get less happy about it because you think that it can't happen?
…No? Just me?
Well, for those of you who DO have that feeling every once in a while, this is the story of what happens when you listen to that voice that tells you to go for it.
This is the story of how a boy became a DJ.
This is the story of how he traveled the world (and more).
This is the story of how he started living.
This is the story of a dude and his Friends.
It all started on April 8th, 2015.
…Well, no, that's not completely true…
If you wanna know the absolute truth about how this all started, we have to go back a ways, to December 31st, 1999. It was the turn of the millennia, and people had been both excited and terrified at the same time (Thank you, Y2K.). There were parties and fireworks that could be heard for miles at a time. And in one particular house in Los Angeles, California, a pregnant woman and her husband looked outside there window.
"It's quite exciting isn't it?" the woman asked her husband. The man appeared to not hear her, as he was looking with wonder and awe at the stars and fireworks exploding in the sky. The woman quietly chuckled at her husband's curiosity. A small shadow crept out of the corner and hugged the woman's leg as the man picked up what looked like a small, blond four-year-old girl.
"Yeah, it's beautiful…" the husband slowly replied, pausing for a few more moments before saying, "Welp, we'd better get to bed. For you and the baby's sake." The man laughed, carrying the child with him.
The woman nodded as she hugged her husband. "Happy New Year, Lloyd." she whispered softly.
"Happy New Year, Lila." The man replied.
THREE MONTHS LATER
Things had gotten quite miserable for the couple in the past few months. In addition to taking care of two children, Lloyd and Lila (Lloyd being a stock broker and Lila being an accountant) had to put in double-overtime most nights while taking care of Brittany, their oldest daughter, and Zenon, their newborn son.
One night, after Lila got home for work, she saw Lloyd waiting at the door for her, with a look of quiet shock. "What's wrong, dear?" Lila asked. Lloyd said nothing, as he merely motioned her to Zenon's room. She walked slowly to the crib while Lloyd followed.
Zenon had his father's old headphones on his head and was listening to music, while reading a Popular Mechanics magazine.
"How did the baby get to your headphones?" Lila asked Lloyd. "I didn't put the headphones on him. I don't even know HOW he got to the book. Lila looked back at her son, who was looking back at them with shining black eyes.
"Do you know what he's listening to?" Lila asked. Lloyd shrugged. "Not a clue. Didn't get a chance to check." Lila then walked back to her baby's crib and put her ear next to the headphones. She stayed there for a while, listening for the next song to play. Then the baby motioned toward replay button on the disc, as if he wanted to hear it again. Then the soft sounds of a synth keyboard and drums filled her ears as she tapped her foot in rhythm. She had almost immediately recognized the song as "Gypsy Woman" from Crystal Waters (it was Lloyd's favorite song) Zenon had begun to rock his head back and forth to the music, imitating his mother.
Lloyd stood in the distance, chuckling to himself. 'It's never gonna be normal in our family, is it?' Lloyd thought to himself.
As it turns out, Lloyd was more right than he thought. In the years that followed, Lloyd and Lila died in a fire only a few years later. Though cause of the fire was unknown, there was a rumor that Zenon put in some tin foil in the microwave when Lila was heating something up for him and, it exploded, setting the house ablaze, with Brittany and Zenon miraculously unharmed. After which, the children were sent to live with their god-parents, Terrence and Marion Hall.
This is where our story begins…
