Just getting through
Hey, the author here. It's gonna be a dark story, but like life, there is some good stuff too.
I hope you all think it's interesting
Sam
*It's very late. They look at the time. It's 3 AM, and it's their birthday tomorrow* 15 years old *They whisper to themselves* I still can't believe it. *They look around, making sure he can't hear them. He's asleep luckily, so should they be.*
Dad
*he's sleeping on the couch, tired after one of his meetings. Snoring loudly*
Sam
*They look at him in the other room, but lay back down again to get some sleep*
Some days have passed, they are 15 now. The birthday wasn't worth remembering, so they just tried to get through the days, one by one
Sam
*They start talking with this girl. She's so nice, but nothing else than a friendship.* I'm home *They said as they walked in*
Dad
Come here. *he says nicely from the living room*
Sam
*They knew something was off, it wasn't him being nice and they knew it* yeah? *They said as they take their shoes and jacket off* what is it? *They ask*
Dad
Just come in *He says, still trying to act nice*
Sam
*They nod* okay.. *They got inside of the living room and see him on his favorite chair* yeah?
Dad
Sit. *he says slightly cold*
Sam
*They nod and sat down on the floor, waiting for him to continue*
Dad
*He started talking more sternly* I heard from the school, something you wanna tell me?
Sam
*They just looked at him* like what?
Dad
*He started getting annoyed*
Sam
*They just shut off, waiting for it to be over*
Sam
*They just fidget with their hands*
Dad
Are you even listening!? *He says angrily* listen when I talk to you!! *his voice was like a knife in the air, cutting directly through the eardrums*
Sam
*Their thought process was lost* yeah. I'm listening
He went on and on until they finally got to go into their part of the apartment.
They text the group chat to meet up
Sam
*In the group chat* So is anyone up for a session?
Max
*in the group chat* Can't, sorry
Alex
*in the group chat* I will be there, no worries my guy
Sam
*in the group chat* That's so fair
Sam
*in the group chat* Hell yeah!!
Jolee
*in the group chat* Is it alright I'm there?
Sam
*in the group chat* Yeah! Sure!
Alex
*in the group chat* Why not.
Peter
*in the group chat* gotta eat first, then I'm there
Sam
*They packed down the bass and got ready*
Dad
Another music session? What about school? *he said sternly*
Sam
I know, I know. I got it *They left fast, and almost ran to our meetup place*
They arrived too early and as time went on as they waited, it got a bit boring
Sam
*They opened up a can of beer as they waited. Working a bit on their notes*
Jolee
Hey *a sweet voice came from the back*
Sam
*They looked up* Hey *They smiled*
Jolee
can I? *She pointed at the beers*
Sam
Go for it *They smiled and drank theirs*
Jolee
*She nodded with a smile* Thanks
Alex
Heeey!!! *A loud voice came from the back* see who's also here!!
Peter
Wassup *he smiled gently*
Sam

Alex
Yeah yeah! *he took a beer and got ready, the drums were all set*
Peter
*he packed out his guitar*
Sam
*They got their bass fully ready and set it up.*
