Well remember what I said before on my birthday. I will listen when you want to talk about it.

I was going to become 'cool' regardless of what happened to me. And like I said, it hasn't been all bad. I have friends. My parents did love me. And when he's around, my Uncle is a good guardian. And I like my school life. for the most part. So it's nothing to worry about.

So it's not so sad. Just... a little more complicated than most people's lives.
