May 15th 19xx.
Buddy had just turned 8 years, but it was not a joyful time.
His mother sat in his parent's bedroom, muttering to herself. Dad was working.
"8 years since I ruined my life. I wish I never married that bastard, but no, I had to because I had that boy."
Buddy wondered if he was meant to hear that. It could go either way.
He wished Grandpa wasn't dead. He was a total alcoholic, but he seemed glad that Buddy existed.
2 more years, then he would be the legal age for a sidekick. He couldn't wait.
