A/N:

This is just something I whipped up when I was bored as hell. Yeah, it's short, I know. But I sort of like it, and…it's the thought that counts right?

-Important-!-

I'm spending a year abroad in the United States right now as an exchange student. So, I'll be quite busy with a lot of stuff, and it will hardly leave any time for updating my stories or writing at all. Besides, the host family I'm staying with this coming school year has only one computer with access to the internet AND I have to share it with four other people who want some quality time on the internet too. Thus my computer time is limited to 45 minutes a day. Too bad, so sad. However, there's nothing I can do about it. Let's just hope I can sneak in a story or a chapter here and there. But I'm not promising you guys anything. Be patient with me, okay? And don't you worry, I'll be back!

If you're going my way

Don't think I'll bend

'Cause this is where I'll stay

- Celine Dion-

There is always a reason – a motive- as to why people act a certain way.

I have my own reasons as to why I am the way I am. But those reasons are mine and mine alone. A prying finger that belongs to anybody but my little brother is not welcome.

There are many regrets left unsaid; like hushed little whispers at the back of my mind.

I feel the pain, but feel no shame. Because everything I did ultimately led to an outcome I planned far in advance. Or at least that's what I tell myself; repeating it over and over in my mind; a silent mantra.

For if I do not doubt will wrap its ravenous tendrils around me. And the second I grant the footprints of shame solid ground, everything will be lost.

My security is built around certainty and it will forever stay that way.
