The day it started was a day to be remembered. That day indescribable awakening happened to that poor boy. That day is today. 

It was the modern-day, early in the morning, it was the weekend. And now a person of interest was just about to start his ritual. He woke up and it was done, he had no school and had time to waste his time on things that interest him. That being, nothing productive in particular. His mother called for breakfast, as per tradition, he ate the modern breakfast that was to his fitting for that time. In this house, there was his father's workplace; in this work, there is a desk and a computer that dated the early two-thousands. Sleek in its design, gray, and inside is state-of-the-art computer parts that allow the highest input without any delay. A keyboard that is withered over time, leaving a yellow tone to the surface. The computer mouse consisted of a trackpad with the little red ball in the middle made for easy scrolling.

Our boy's father is not in the house, he is off to run errands that his wife had given him the day before. Now the boy had free reign over his father's computer, considering that his mother was relaxing at the couch and watching a Soap Opera.  As it turns out the main character of forbedden love, who is in love with a bedridden retiree happens to be the grandmother of his nemesis who burned down his house and had his entire family killed by premeditated telepathic manslaughter. The main character of this Soap Opera plans to kill the retiree, but he has a dilemma of love; he could get revenge for his family or start a new life. Quite a conundrum! 

Beyond that, the boy had reached a threshold that would decide whether or not he would be capable of function as an ordinary human being for the rest of his life. Unrestricted computer access at an early age. And he was at his father's computer, and he turned it on, and he clicked on internet explorer. He was reminded of the funny pointy animal that he could not recall. His friend said something among the words of. 

"pork cu pine" 

That was the word, the small animal that has the looks of a beaver but punishes anything that comes near it. And so, the boy typed in P O R and hoped that the autofill would aid him in finding a picture of the cute little thing. 

And he was wrong. 

Oh so horribly wrong. 

His father forgot to clear his history when he was "Working." What came up in previous searches was enough to scare a grown man who had the knowledge of the "forbidden," stuff of the internet. But he had a chance, the boy had a chance to change his path and not click on to hot raw dog doggy style hotdog in the hallway with feature guest Snoop Dog on the auto search. He was confused on what kind of website would have an orange icon and many X's to complement the title. In addition, he did not know what the title means either. Now, reader, this is a great metaphor or even a lesson that each step you take could be your downfall. Some might say that your smallest actions will lead to bigger consequences that will topple over you, and from that day forward nothing will be the same. 

Now let us see- 

Oh no. 

He clicked on it.
