Running down the dark street, almost out of breath, but he kept on running. He knew if he stopped he will die. All he could do was keep running, even when he couldn't feel his legs or even breath properly.
But all he can do is run.
Run the fastest he ever ran.
Let's start to the beginning.
-----------
It was another boring day and Alex had to get up again.
"Another day Another nickel ."
He did his normal routine showering, brushing his teeth, and eating all this in his crappy 175 square foot apartment.
Alex really hated his living conditions, he overpays for this apartment with what little money he earns from his convenience store job and also his small programmer job. All that and it barley covers his living.
*Ring*
*Ring*
As he was eating his small breakfast of eggs, bacon and a small sausage his phone started to go off. He picked up his phone off the table and almost dropped his phone.
"Shit!"
The name one the caller id was someone he really didn't want to talk to right now, his boss at the convience store. Yesturday he kind of walked out after his assistant manager yelled at him.
He reluctantly picked up the call, "Yes boss."
"Why did you walk out yesturday?"
The one question he doesn't want to awnser.
"Well you see my stomach started to hurt so i-"
"I'll stop you there I know why i justed needed a reason to put down on your record, just make sure you don't do it again." My boss said as he let out a soft sigh.
All Alex could think of was how much his boss named Rick has helped him over the year. From giving him a job to keeping him from getting fired by the assistant manager on many occasions. The boss and his parents were friends back in the day before...before. Well never mind.
"Thanks boss."
"Don't mention it just make sure not to piss her off again."
"Yes sir."
With that Rick hung up. Leaving Alex there thinking he is pathetic he has to rely on people to even have a job.
He just with he could have poeple rely on him, or one of his more darker fantasies. Having peoples lives in the palm of his hand.
Since his parents passed and people pushed him down for no reason, just knocking him down without reason. He wished he could knock them down a peg like they did him, to control their destiny.
