Big Brothers

Torn

Alex's P.O.V

The construction workers are here. It's been a week the park has to be covered in barriers. I secretly ditched school to pay my last respects to the playground. It may sound crazy but this was the playground that kept making me happy all these years. You see, my parents are always fighting and ignoring me and my brother, Mitch Oliver Jack West. I call him Mitch. Maddy used to have a small crush on him but I lied to her that he has already have a girlfriend. She got jealous and ignored him for a whole month. She and him are best friends but after I lied to her, she completely forgotten about him. And that was when she met Luke. Major crush. And my brother worked for the army in U.S.... Far away from where I am.. But he sends me half of his salary every month so it's okay. Anyway, I sneak to the barriers and took a peak at the beautiful park. All the birds sang peacefully in their nests. Butterflies flutter around the bushes. Bees buzzing for honey. The sweet smell of flowers filled my nostrils. I had to something. I couldn't let them tear this park down without a fight!!! I got my bag and jumped over the barrier.
