When I woke up today I already knew it was going to suck like hell I just didn't know how until I was told with the other campers

Parents Day

Although I knew my parents wouldn't bother showing up I got nervous. What if this was like carnival like 2 years ago the 2 showed up with out telling me without doing it again

It was random it scared me

"Well while you guys have fun with that im going to be over here hey david can we order a pizza"

"Your parents are going to show up max they might just be late"

"Sure"

Throughout the day we learned more and more about the other kids and their family lives.

When it was time for the finishing show to tell everyone what we were here for David asked me why I was there

"My parents didn't want me"

"Oh"

When the overly move councilor found out he and Gwen took me out to a pizza place while there I got hot and pulled off my hoodie when I did that my shirt came up a bit as well showing off an array of bruises and scars and even his arms were littered with a gallery of scars self caused or otherwise.

"What do they do to you Max?"

"Isn't it obvious they hate me"
