Before my time I woke up slowly that morning as if there was an absence of meaning in the day. as I turned over as I opened my eyes and looked at the clock flashing red in my face 6:23, 6:23, 6:23 I rolled over so I was staring at the cracks in the snow white ceiling. Suddenly I felt empty, deflated like a toy balloon. I looked back at the clock 6:24. I decided to get up; I went down stairs and got myself a glass of water trying not to wake anyone else in the house. The rest of the morning carried on as normal, watched morning TV, Saturday morning cartoons. People said I was too old but the cartoons were kind of the last grip I had on being a kid. Merissa came round about 10:30. She did every weekend. I remember the day she moved in next door...
