Sometimes people say that there is someone for you somewhere. That God had created a person, someone that was born just for you, out there. I wish I could still believe in that, but after telling myself that over and over, I can't seem to find the one after what I did. I screwed up, and I messed up a life I could have had. My name is Vio Hendaz, and I'm 24. I live in New York City, on Main Street. My apartment number is 666, funny enough, and I'm going to college, studying to become a professional photographer. And this is my screwed up happily never after.

It was like as if no one knew how to be kind and respectful of one another. The sidewalks were crowded, full of pedestrians; the street weren't any better. Cars honking, trying to get by. The traffic was horrific, everyone wanting to go home after a long day after work. They shouted out of their car windows, and flipping people the bird when they got upset enough. People would fight over parking spaces against the sidewalk. It was all a mess. It was like as if the world was ending or something with all this commotion.

After what seemed like eternity, I was able to get to the front of my apartment building. Seeing the doorman up in front have me relief. 'Finally, I'm almost home'. My eyes rolled, as I walked up to the doorman, whose name was Green. He had blond hair, and a cowlick to his right, and bright blue eyes to compliment it. He wore the uniform of the building, which consisted of a white long sleeve shirt and black pants. A green blazer hung off his shoulders and a black bow tie to add to the look. His black dress shoes looked a bit worn, but it didn't take away from his appearance.

"Have a nice day?" Green asked as I started to walk towards the two glass doors. He seemed tired, and maybe a bit hot from the sun hitting him all day. Poor guy.

His question game me a chuckle "no better then yesterday." Before walking though the opened door that was held for me, I flicked him a quarter. "Fix your bow tie, it's a bit off to the side." I chuckled as he looked down and let the door go quickly to fix his bow tie. He was the man for perfection.

Everything that I was possibly carrying was thrown off onto my couch, my shoulder hurting from carrying my messenger bag that was already heavy with books and my laptop. Though, I was carful to put down the bag that contained my camera and all the lenses. The camera bag itself weight six pounds. Your thinking 'nonsense!', but this shit weighs quite a bit. Professional camera lenses weigh maybe a pound each, and it's due to all the gadgets inside that make the lens better than all the other normal camera lenses. The added battery is almost a pound and a half, because not only is it a battery, but it absorbs light to use it on flash to make the flash look natural. I don't even have a tripod in there, I had to carry that separate.

"I'm home!" I cried out. I'm sure even if I haven't made my presence, she would have already known. A cat came running downstairs, eyes all sparkly knowing that it's master was back. Her name is Zelda, and she is a Savanna cat. She was grey with dark spots, and large ears, and she always seemed to have her head and tail held up high, just like a royal would. But she is a very sweet cat, despite the way she , Zelda was a very expensive breed of cat, but I didn't buy her. I got her from a friend of mine who's care had many kittens, and he said it was too much for him, so he starts giving them away, and j was one of those people he gave one to. His names Red, and I wasn't so thrilled about cats until he showed me Zelda. In fact, I never liked cats before Red, and I'm glad he changed my mind. Dogs are too messy and birds are too loud.

Zelda pounced onto the baby blue couch, extending her head into my hand for me to pet. I lightly scratched the areas behind her ears and lightly brushed her fur down a bit, seeming that she was rolling on something to make it look puffy. "I'm sorry I had to leave you alone again. I don't have to go tomorrow, so I'll be spending my day with you, okay?" Zelda just messed in response, as if knowing what I had just told her. I chuckled, grabbing her and carrying her with me to the kitchen, and setting her down by her bowl. Taking out her food, I get her a cup and a half and refilled her water bowl. With a satisfied 'humph', I walked over to my messenger and opened it up to pull out my laptop, opening it, and turning it one.

I was transferring the pictures I had took today onto my laptop, when Zelda hopped onto the couch back bored and settled around the back of my neck. After a while, she seemed to want my attention, because she started to paw my ear, and taking my earlobe and biting it softly. "Don't do that! Your distracting me." Zelda seemed to like my reaction, and stood up, trying to climb onto my head and once accomplished, started reaching down and putting her two front paws over my left eye. Sighing, I closed my laptop and pushed it away, picking her off my head and setting her down on my lap. "Your unbelievable."

Her pink yarn ball was across from where I was sitting, so I reached over to grab it and started to play with her, teasing her with the yarn above her head, as she tried to jump and grab it. Eventually she did, and she scampered off with the ball, somewhere towards my room. I rolled my eyes, getting up too tired to make dinner and eat, so I went to take a quick showed before going to bed. It looked like Zelda had beat me to it, because she was already sleeping on my side, on my pillows. "Nice."

Lightly, I moved Zelda to the empty pillow beside mine, and buried myself in the covers. The warmth from Zelda's little body on my pillow just a few moments ago warned it up, heating up my slightly shivering form.

Although I had felt exhaustion when I came home, I couldn't seem to sleep. The air in my room was warm. A bit too warm. I forced myself up, and walked over to a window I had in my room, just across from my small room. The white windowpane border was cool to the touch, comforting. With one swift up motion, I pulled the window open. The cool city air over came me, and a sigh of relief spilled from my lips. The honking of cars had reduced, and soft music replaced it. The lights in the city where bright, advertisements of anime and clubs and bars. My ears soon focused into the music that was coming from behind me. Another window in my room -facing another apartment building-, sounded like the source, but really, it was the neighbor. Their apartment was brightly lit, and a few voices could be heard. Great, they was having a party.

Just a few days ago, did I realize that there was someone living in the apartment across from mine. There was just a narrow alley separating both buildings, and to say the truth, they weren't loud, but sometimes they have parties, and it usually takes a while for me to fall a sleep with all their commotion. After a few hours, they leave, but by then, it's no use, because I either can't sleep, or I was too exhausted that I still fell asleep with all the noises they were making.

Groaning, I walked away from the open window, and returned to my bed, stuffing my head between two pillows, trying to drowning the music. How was nobody complaining about the music? Or was it just me because I live right across from their room? At least Zelda warning wailing up, or she would make me go set her free onto the balcony for a few minutes, and I really had no time to watch over her. After what seemed like forever, a few voices left, leaving about two (three?) people left in their apartment. It wasn't much later when all the noise was completely quiet, apart from the sounds coming from out in the streets. But that didn't seem to matter, I was already drifting off, closing my eyes, hoping for a dreamless night.

The darkness behind my eyelids was never ending. Dark as coal, and it was soundless; it was lonely. When that feeling became known, I yearned for something. Someone.
