Chapter 2: Should I?

Rei was sitting by the window again, waiting for his parent's, and his brothers to come back from Church. Ryuji had gone to sleep again, seeing that there wasn't anything else to do. He suddenly had an idea. He quietly rushed downstairs, then stood by the door, his hand on the knob. He turned the knob, but then let go as if it had burned his hand. He sat on the ground, thinking. (What the heck am I thinking? I can't go outside…but the curiosity is killing me! Ever since I was 5…I wanted to know…but I've always been so chicken about it…I'll never get to go outside…) Rei trailed off in thought, then headed back upstairs. Halfway up, he turned around, and headed back downstairs, and toward the back door. He had never thought of the back door. It was always locked with four locks. (Which Rei could easily open) He slowly unlocked the locks, beads of sweat running down his face. (Am I doing the right thing?) He thought nervously as he unlocked the fourth lock. (Oh, God…) He tried to swallow a knot in his throat, but it only seemed to grow bigger. His hand rested on the door knob for about ten minutes before he finally decided to turn it. He opened it slightly. He could feel the fresh air come into the house. It felt almost relaxing. He opened it a little more, taking in the cold air from outside. It was something he'd never done before…it was like smelling freshly cut flowers…he'd done that, but this was even better. He finally managed to open it just enough so he could get out. He crawled onto the neat, green grass. He felt so…relaxed.

"So…this is how it feels…" Rei murmbled in a barely audible tone. He lay there, on the back yard, so relaxed that he lost track of the time, just laying there, looking up at the morning sky. The sun was more visible now, the clouds covered it now and then, just like in the movies he had seen. (All this time…I could've done this every Sunday they went to church…surely, everyone else is at church, too…so is there any risk?) Rei thought to himself. He suddenly looked at his watch, and realized that is parent's would get there in a few minutes.

"12:24…" Rei got up slowly, and headed to the door, which was still slightly opened, and crawled inside, shutting it carefully. He locked it quickly, then headed upstairs to the room he shared with Ryuji. He found Ryuji still sleeping peacefully. Rei sighed with relief…He was glad that Ryuji didn't know about him sneaking out, or he would've copied him-he was sure Ryuji would get caught. He sat on the bed, and opened the book Zak had given him, and began to read.

When Rei's parent's and brothers arrived, they opened the door to their room, and looked inside. Ryuji awakened at the noise of footsteps.

"Mom!" Ryuji hugged her, then their father came over, and sat on the bed. Rei smiled at the scene of Ryuji and his mother.

"Rei, honey, why don't you go downstairs with your brothers, and eat." Rei's mother instructed him. Rei's father just smiled, then focused on Ryuji while Rei headed downstairs. He smelled pizza, something that their parent's would rarely buy, but at least it filled them up. Rei took a slice, and frowned. He began to take off the hamburger meat. His parent's knew that he didn't like it, but when they ordered, they'd usually get hamburger meat, and pepperoni meat. It was unusual that they'd buy one without it. They'd get suspicious because they knew that everyone in the family liked hamburger meat.

"Isn't American food great?" Zak suddenly said, taking another slice of pizza into his hand.

"Um..I guess so." Rei replied, then Sysuke plopped down on the seat next to Rei's.

"I think it is. I wonder who invented it."

"The Italians, you dork. Don't you learn anything at school? Oh, wait. You learn everything, but you can't remember the small things?" Zak taunted. Sysuke just ignored him. Rei knew that Zak was just jealous of Sysuke because he was smarter, and more determined to go to school than he was. Rei sighed, then went upstairs again. He saw that his parent's were coming down with Ryuji following closely behind them.

"Rei, aren't you going to eat?" Rei's father asked, but Rei smiled, holding up the slice of pizza in his hand.

"I've got one. I just have to go read some more of my book, it's actually pretty good." Rei replied, then headed back into the room. Once inside, he shut the door, and decided to go to the window again. He looked out, then thought about when he had been outside earlier. (It doesn't hurt anyone if I go outside...and besides, no one will ever see me) Rei thought with a small smile on his face. Now he had a plan. Go out when no one else was home, but have a time limit as well. (Why didn't I think of this before?) Rei thought, shaking his head. He headed over to his bed reaching over to pick up the book when something else caught is eye. It was another book. He picked it up slowly, then read the cover.

"I guess I'm Part of the Problem." Rei looked at the back cover, and read what other people thought of the book. "An excellent book for young adults…This will keep you gripped-from start to finish." Rei turned it over, then opened it to the first page.

"Chapter one…"
