*Kim*
It's a Friday night. I'm ready to perform for many people that showed up at the basketball championship game. I'm so proud of Jack. A few months ago he couldn't even throw clothes into a laundry basket. But now with all the training he's been doing over the summer, he's gotten really good at basketball. He's now one of the best on the team and one of the strongest.
I sighed. Jack is so perfect. He's got everything he wants and needs in his life. I just wish I had a life like that. I want the type of life where everyone adores and loves you.
Lindsay: Kim.
I turned around and saw her. She just aggravates me.
Kim: WTF you want Lindsay?
Lindsay: Ooh. O girl getting feisty because now she has Jack all to herself.
Kim: What do you mean? You're dating him anyways.
Lindsay: Oh he didn't tell you the news? Well either way you're probably happy anyways. I didn't want an asshole like him in my life.
Kim: Jack's not an asshole and you're just mad that a nice guy like that dumped you because you're a slut. Bah bye Lindsay.
I walked away smiling. Man if only I did karate I would've beaten her ass already. I saw Jack and I immediately run over to him
Jack: Aye. You ready for the game?
Kim: Yeah you?
Jack: No. I'm so scared. There's a guy here from Georgia who is gonna see me play and if I do well then he's gonna let me go to one of the most awesome basketball training schools in the U.S.
Kim: You'll be great, don't worry. And oh, why didn't you tell me you and Lindsay broke up.
Jack: I forgot to tell you I'm sorry. How you found out anyway?
Kim: She told. Oh well Good luck.
Kim: YOU'RE WHAT?!
Jack: IKR! I'm moving to Georgia
Jack calls me in the middle of the night telling me that he is gonna move to Atlanta like what? See I love Jack but he is stupid. He doesn't hear the devastation in my voice. Call me selfish but I don't want him to leave me. I want my best friend.
Kim: He made his decision already?
Jack: Yeah. He told me I did great and that I was eligible to go to Atlanta.
I don't know what to do. I wanna be happy for him but I also wanna cry right now. I mean do you know what it feels like for your best friend to leave you alone and might never come back?
Kim: Well I'm happy my big bro got in. One question though. When are you moving?
Jack: In about a month. We'll have time to hang out I promise.
Kim: Alright. I'll talk to you tomorrow.
I hanged up the phone, laid in bed, and looked at the ceiling. For some reason I started to fall asleep and dream about the day when Jack saved me.
*Beginning of flashback/dream*
I was walking with this guy that happened to be the one that saved me. It was bizarre but I was very thankful. We kept walking to his house and not saying anything to each other until he broke the silence.
Jack: You know it's a little risky to be walking on the streets of Seaford alone at night right?
Kim: Like I even have a choice. Family abandoned me. People starting rumors and messing with me. Back at home, my dad was always drunk and abusive and all my mom did was gamble. My sister got tired of my parents so she left and went off to college. I wish she could've taken me with her.
Jack: Damn that must be tough. My life is not the same but it's still bad. Parents are divorced. My mom is never around but at least she try. My father left us and then later died in a car accident. But my mom on the other hand is great. She's caring, nice, and she's got a good heart.
I don't understand why this guy is telling me all this stuff. People would usually keep that stuff to themselves but not him. I guess that's what makes him special. He doesn't care what people think.
Kim: Well I guess we both got crappy lives. Look Jack thanks for saving me I don't know how I'm gonna pay you but I promise I will.
Jack: Nah its fine. I save people all the time. It's ok.
Kim: Alright but are you sure your mom is gonna let me stay at your house?
Jack: Don't worry. We got yah.
