Returning To An Old Home
It had been many years since I moved away from Tree Town. I don't even remember why I had left, in fact, I don't remember anything from this place. Except for a few bits and pieces. Though they are really fuzzy.
I guess I should explain who I am. My names Weird, yeah i know it's a weird name. I don't remember who decided that was my name, in fact, I don't even remember who my parents are.
When I last lived here, I was about thriteen years old I think. I lived in a big house here with a lot of other people, but who were they? Family members? Friends of my family? I can't remember, but hopefully I can get some answers here.
Let me try and remember why I had left this place, I think someone or someone's had sent me away, on a bus, all by myself and I ended up in the city far, far away. I can't remember much before that because it gives me a headache, but I can remember what happened after that.
When I was there, I was always felt that I was different from everyone else. I seemed to be getting into more accidents and once I got hit by a pick up truck, but I was fine the next day. The doctors didn't know what was wrong with me.
Then came all the tests and experiments, they were trying to see if I could give them a cure of some kind with my blood, but it was just normal human blood and after more painful tests, I ran away, back to the town who's name kepts on sticking to the back of my head.
Tree Town.
Seems like a weird name, I wasn't even sure if the town existed, but it apparently did and for some reason I moved back here. I convinced myself that it was just to get away from all of those doctors and texts, but I think it was because I wanted to figure out my past.
I waved to the moving truck driver as I took out the last of the boxes. He waved back and quickly drove away, seeming like he wanted to get out of here.
Sighing, I looked up at my new home. It was one of the newly built houses, I could tell because I have absolutely no memory of it ever being here. As for the house I stayed in before it was probably somewhere on the other side of town. It seemed pretty active over there.
Although, it was very quiet on this side of town, I guess all of these houses were newly built, but even though I had no idea what this place was or anyone in it, I had a strange feeling that I was home.
I shook the feeling away and picked up one of the many boxes and carried it inside, repeating the same procedure until the only thing I need left to be inside is the furniture and the appliances.
"I guess I'll have to go get some help," I said to myself. I looked around and realized, I have no fucking idea where anyone lives. Sighing, I moved my black shaggy hair out of my face and started walking, since I didn't have a car and all.
There was a park nearby, maybe someone was there that could help me.
When I was there, I sighed. It was completely empty. No one in sight. This place was like a freaking ghost town.
Well, since no one was here, I might as well take a seat and rest for a bit because this park felt like it was miles away from my house or at least it felt like it. I was never the type of person that enjoyed walking.
I sat on the see saw, I always wanted to play with someone on these, but everyone thought I was weird since I apparently couldn't die. That's impossible though, everyone dies, I was just one of the lucky ones is all. They're just too stupid to see that.
I closed my eyes, I was that exhausted from walking, but when I opened them again, it appeared that I was suddenly up in the air, my feet no longer touching the ground.
"Woah!" I exclaimed, jumping in surprise, it almost caused me to fall backwards off of the see saw, but I had quickly grabbed onto the handle before that could happen.
There was a quiet small laugh and I looked down to see where it had came from, sitting on the other seat was this girl.
She had short wavy purple hair, and bright purple eyes. She wore this wool hat along with a wool swaeter, blue long skirt, stockings, and some sort of boots. She smiled at me, like she knew who I was, but I had no idea who she was...or at least I think so.
"Hello Weird. It's nice to see you again," she said, confirming the fact that she actually did know me.
"W-Who are you?" I asked, although I felt stupid for asking it. The girl looked a little surprised that I had asked that question, her eyes slightly widen and her smile fading away.
"So, you really don't remember me?" she asked, I answered with a nod, but the smile came back onto her face, "I figured that would happen, so let me introduce myself. My name is Lammy, we were friends when we were kids."
A memory flashed into my eyes. Lammy and I were sitting near the lake, taking out some colorful rocks and what now, you know, what kids do, when suddenly my head was pushed under water, I couldn't breathe. I was twisting and turning trying to get out, I caught a glimpse of Lammy, it looked like she was the one pushing my head under water, but the wasn't it. It was someone else.
As if by magic, a man with long green hair, a top hat, and a strange smile was infront of me, he was the one pushing me under water, Lammy was trying to get him to stop, but then everything went dark and I couldn't see anything.
Did I die? Was that an actual memory or was it just a figment of my imagination and was Lammy really my friend in the past?
I feel another headache coming...
