They call me Mo, I'm the type of guy to avoid. Very anti social, very emotionless. I wasn't always this way, I've been thru...stuff. like everyone in this world. For me it all started at a very young age.
7.00 AM
I wake up early. Not to go to school or to go working. I just sit by the window staring at people going to their jobs or classes, basically doing things I'm not able to do because of my bad decisions. I still blame myself for them,even though I was young and dumb when I made such decisions.
"Okay, enough" I said to myself. "Enough feeling sorry for myself" I closed the window and made my way to the bathroom, where I toke a quick shower. I put a towel around myself and went to my room for some clothes. My room was a mess. I picked out the first shirt and pair of pants I saw on the floor and put them on.
I made my way down the stairs and went to the kitchen to eat some serial, basically the only thing I can make for myself. I started eating when my phone began to rang. "Hello?" A deep voice said to me. I looked at the number and it wasn't a number familiar to me. I wrote it down. "HELLO?" the voice said again but this time in an angrier tone. "Hello. Who's this?" I answered it a dry tone. "I have a job for you Mo". Mo? How does he know my name? "Talk" I said irritated. "This isn't something we can talk about thru the phone. Let's set up a place to meet." The men hung up the phone. WTF is his deal. *ping* I got a text from the weird guy.

********** 1 AM, today
This was weird, any other person would avoid this meeting. But someone like me had no other choice. I had to take this job. I have no one to depend on, it's just me, myself and I. I finished my serial and went to put my shoes and jacket on.
I walked outside into my neighbourhood, full of criminals, and bad people. Our neighbourhood is so bad that even the government gave up on us. Sometimes we don't have water for a month because a lot of us refuse or just can't pay the bills.
I walked towards the big shopping center that was about 5 miles away, that's where I park my car because parking it here means you want it to be stolen or vandalised.
I was checking my phone when I heard a girl yelling "heyyyyy, do you need a ride?" I didn't bother to look since I'm not befriended with anyone around here. Or anyone anywhere honestly..."hellooo, guy with the yellow shoes!!" I finally turned around and she stopped her car. She must be from here because regular people don't ever come near my neighbourhood. But I never seen her before. I went up to her. "Yes?" I said very bothered. She quickly turned red and opened her window. "I just saw you walking and I thought you might want a lift home? Or to wherever you're going." I totally ignored what she just said and started looking at her car, a very nice car. "You're not from here, what are you doing here. Does this look like a place for a car like yours?" She again blushed and looked down. "Why? Is this not a place to be around? I'm actually from Spain. We just moved to New York for my dad's job" I rolled my eyes at how naive she was. "I don't care to know anything about you. Just get the fuck out of here. Lots of people here would kill for your car." I looked at her once more and left. "So you don't need a lift?!" She screamed.
Dumb bitch really thinks this is all a game. I ignored her and continued my walk towards my car. When I suddenly heard the same girl scream again. "SOMEONE HELP" I turned around and wasn't surprised at all. My neighbour was trying to rob her car and other belongings. I slowly walked towards them and stood behind him. "Leave her alone and put that fucking knife down. You're not scaring anyone with that." I grabbed the nice and threw it on the ground. The neighbour gave me a dirty look and walked back into his house. "Thank you, I should've listened to you" the girl said. "Why are you even still talking, just go the fuck home and don't come back here" her smile quickly disappeared and she got inside her car. "Are you sur-" "NOW" I said with an angry tone. She started her car and sped off into the safe area.
