"Goodmorning sweetie, Happy birthday" Gramma said kissing my head.

"Thank you Gramma" I smile before grabbing my glasses from my nightstand.

"Now Let's go, your Grandpa and me prepared breakfast for you" she said and she lead me to the kitchen.

"Happy birthday kiddo" Grandpa said shuffling my hair.

I sat on my seat and stared at the food they prepared for me. This will be more fun if Mom and Dad was here. If weren't for that accident they will still be alive.

"Is something wrong sweetie" Gramma ask making I shook my head before we started eating.

After eating I headed to my room and took a quick shower before wearing my work uniform. After Mom and Dad died, we didn't have money anymore, our income was cut off because no one was working on our family anymore. Grandpa even suggested that he will find a job to help me for my education, but I didn't allow it. They're both old they deserve to just sit around the house and relax.

After the funeral, I quickly took action and hunt for a job and thank god I found one. I am a chef at this restaurant call Olive gardens they pay me enough to pay the bills, put food on the table and buy metinance medicines for both of my Grandparents.

Even though my schedule is so freaking hard, I just think of my Grandparents for inspiration. Every weekend I work 7AM to 8PM and when it's weekdays I work 3PM to 9PM. I still have school and thank god I'm not falling behind even though I always go to school without a wink of sleep.

After I'm all dress up I wave goodbye to my Grandparents and began walking towards my job. I started my daily routine by buying a single apple and walking by to the pet store to wave at the dogs. If I had extra money I will happily but this dog I call Gumby, he was a labrador retriever and I really love him, but sad to say that his worth a lot than he looks.

I smile and wave goodbye at Gumby and continue walking. I finish my apple just before I entered the restuarant. I opened the door and was suprise to see my manager and coworkers singing me a happy birthday song. My managed came up to me holding a cake.

"Finally you're eighteen, now you can come to our night outs" he said making me chuckle.

I made a wish and blow the candles before putting the cake to the fridge for later. I quickly headed at the kitchen and started to cooks orders.

After a few rich costumer ask to see me to compliment my dish. I like it when rich people call me out from the kitchen to compliment my food because they give me tips.

After a long day I was starting to get tired. The kitchen is really damn hot like you're cooking in hell.

"Hey have any plans for tonight" James ask, one of my coworkers/bestfriend/classmate.

"No I think I'm just gonna head home" I said and he nodded.

"Just bother to call me if something's wrong" he said and I smile.

James was the like part family he knows my parents and my grandparents and they know him too.

-----Jump---Jump---jump------

I glance at my phone and it was already time to go home. I sighed out and took my cake.

"See ya at school" James wave and making me wave back.

I started walking towards my house, alone may I add. I really hate walking alone at the empty streets it really freaks me out. I speed walk when I couldn't take it anymore.

As I passed the dark alley way I could have sworn I heard something which made me sprinted towards my house crying for help, then the front door suddenly open revealing Grandpa holding his shotgun. I quickly run up him hugging him tight, he just rub my backs and lead me to the kitchen.

"I hate walking pas those dark alleys i always feel pike there something going to snatch me" I said looking intensely at the floor.

"There, there" Grandpa said rubbing my back, "You're just tired, and if there was really someone, I probably would shoot them already before they touch our little boy" he added with make me relax a bit.

I took a quick shower and change into my matching pajama wear before heading towards my grandparents room.

"Can I sleep here tonight" I said and gramma smiled scooting a little bit to give me space.
I lay between them and placingo my glasses on the nightstand while trying to erase that scary encounter.

I really hate the dark, I easily get scared.
