Hi my name is Jack Campbell and this is my life. When my life began my parents weren’t with me. I remember only a nurse and a strange man looking at me with a lot of hate. Since that moment I realized that my life would be a disaster, and I wasn’t wrong… Minutes later, the hospital where I was born was shot at. My nurse decided to take care of me because I didn’t have a family, and we started running to the stairs to protect us. While we were trying to escape, the nurse was killed, and the strange man took me out and to a restaurant near the hospital where he wanted to sell me.

Luckily, a sweet old woman didn’t allow that and took me with her. She had an orphan to whom she dedicated all her life. She was very patient, tolerant and lovely, especially with me, I don’t know why. She spent almost all her time teaching me how to be a good person, but I was very restless and a rebel, so I always did what I wanted.

The only thing that I didn’t have was a family; in some aspects I had it, but not a normal one like other people. I really wished it. I always thought about what a family was. Only sometimes I felt complete, my adoptive mom made me feel so good. She taught me a lot of things, even to cook. I appreciated it and liked it very much, especially when I helped her to made desserts. I was growing up and my adoptive mom become more and more annoying: “Do that!”, “Don’t play with fire!” – aarrrgggghhhh - I hated that. One day I was discussing with her and she was starting to make me crazy. I remember that discussion: I want to go to the city. No, sweetheart. Why do you never let me have fun? That’s because I love you… If you love me, you will let me do what I want!

Then I punched her, I don’t know what made me do that - I felt so angry inside. Seconds later, I saw her on the ground, holding on to a small thread of life. If she recovered, I would be in big trouble, so I finished her off. I dug a hole in the back yard and put her there; it only took me a few minutes to make it look as if nothing had happened. I decided to go to the city and no one and nothing would stop me. Days later I took a bus and got to the big city. Everything was so confusing, I didn’t recognize anyone.

After walking through the streets for some time, I walked into an office where I saw a very strange man - he reminded me of the one who had saved me at the hospital. I got closer to him and he invited me to eat. We went to a restaurant and all the people behaved like retards. I started to believe that I was the only person in this life who was out of place. I left the restaurant and entered a hospital.

I sat down and started thinking about my life while sick people all around me were crying. I was very sad and felt stupid, so I decided to commit suicide and die like a pig. I took a cord and put it around my neck. Seconds later I died, and that was my terrible and crazy life.
