As I breezed through my childhood with ease, I never stopped to consider the fact that I would someday live in fear. I always thought of life as something easy and fun, never as something that I would fear in the future.
My life as a child was unusually easy. My parents, although older, loved me unconditionally. Well, that's what I think. I'll never know what they think of me if they knew about the incident.
Even early that day, I never would have thought that something so small could affect my life so greatly. And to think, if it weren't for that goddamn tray, my life would go on as a carefree young teenager, breezing through life as it's supposed to be.
Yet, even with all the things I've experienced and the friends that stick by me no matter what, I'll never be the same person that I was before my dark secret came to be.
So today, I will share my story about the tray incident, how it still affects me and how I'm learning to cope with the misery of my past crimes.
