         The only thing I could ever do is gamble. My childhood was messed up. Growing up I had an abusive father and three siblings. I'm the oldest child. I had to gamble for money, since my fucking lazy son of a bitch father would rather starve us to death and beat us then get a job.
        I'm thirteen, I've been gambling since I was in diapers. The trick is to not get cocky and have a high price but don't go to low or they won't even try. My mom left us when I was only three years old. I still hate her for what she did. But I will not end up like my dad, a washed up nobody who's life needs to end
        I'm basically raising my siblings, yet I know the youngest doesn't have long. He is very ill and we don't have enough money to pay the rent let alone pay hospital bills. All I can do is hope that everything will be alright

                  Or will it?
