"Let there be light". I thought remembering how the earth was formed in the Bible. Comical,in my formation there was no light except a little shimmer from a crevice if that could be called light. I remembered how it all happened, how I became a vampire.
It was in the summer of 1970 when people were smart but the phones weren't. America was in the peak of civilization and the world trade center has just being built. My parents had insisted that I went to the trade center and check out the place. I didn't want to. I felt like an outcast among my friends thus I was a rebel. I would pick up a fight with anyone that cares to anger me,I always won. Even my best friend Sam couldn't beat me to a fight and he is a professional boxer now. I didn't have a specific race I belonged to. My maternal grandfather was black and my grandma was Arab which made my mum Afro Arab. My dad was German on his mother's side and Irish on his father's side. Usually I had an identity crises. I was born on the 22nd of March 1953 in Provident hospital in Chicago. I was born a twin. My parents named me Aodh Scarlett Flynn,all names meaning red because I was red haired like my dad and grandfather. My sister's name Ambrosia also meant red but she wasn't red haired,she had black hair like my mum. Our parents wanted us to have twin names. Tuesday,as she was usually called was loved by our parents. She had so many friends and she was special. She hung out with the coolest kids and got invited to the dopest parties. I on the other hand hated parties and friends so I had none except Sam. Sam lived next door and I broke as many bones as I could but he kept coming back. He valued our friendship and I respected that,I stopped fighting with him at a time.
We moved to Los Angeles and I never saw Sam again. Los Angeles meant new school,new friends and a new house. It was fun for Tuesday but boring for me. I lost my only friend and felt even more lonely. I was weird,I would hang out at a cemetery in Los Angeles till midnight whenever our parents were away and Tuesday threw a party. I loved red and always wore that color. Red school bag, shoes,clothes and even make up. Halloween was my best holiday. I read horror books and watched horror movies. It was all I did when I was alone,I would read in the cemetery or at our dark basement at night. I had planned to seek out a vampire sometime in eighth grade to change to one. I had even wished it on a shooting star when I was fifteen. Looking back now,I realized it was my worst wish.
Boys were a different story for me,I was. interested in none of them except one. His name was Ian. Ian Abram.
