[as00e]

hi..how are you all
I'm new here, i wrote a story in English
maybe there is a lot of mistakes but i wanted to share it so..
let's get started..

New York City..
C town supermarket:
A man with his son walked into the supermarket
Welcome sir
The man: hi, can I have a cigarette pack
Sure
A homeless little boy (10-13 years old) walked into the supermarket
The son: daddy can I take this?
The man: of course, take whatever you want
She was starring at the homeless boy and her mind takes her to...
A homeless little girl starring at the other kids with their parents inside the supermarket
She put her hand over her stomach
The seller: go away homeless!
She stole a piece of bread and she ran away
The seller: HEY!
His voice brought her back: excuse me?
Sorry
The man: I’ll take this too
He paid and left the place
Hey there
The homeless:…..
What’s your name?
The homeless:……
So you are not going to tell me your name?
The homeless:…..
She gave him a sandwich: here
He took the sandwich and ran outside
A sad smile loomed in her face and she let out a sigh
It was a cold night
The small girl eating the bread while crying in the street and no one care about her
*sneeze*
A voice wake her up again: thanks
!!!
It was the homeless
You’re welcome
The homeless: it’s Jason by the way
She smiled: come again Jason
..
I was like that kid once.. Homeless.. Weak.. Hungry
Some kids born in heaven and some kids born in hell
And I have lived in hell my entire life; I just can’t remember that I ever had a happy moments.
Maybe before my parents died but I was a child I can’t remember it all.
Joy, is my name
it means happiness and gladness, well I never thought I deserve it
My name should be Sorrow or pain its suits me more
Well this is me (Joy Watson)
..
Joy living in a small apartment with two bedrooms and a living room with a small kitchen, but not alone
Mike: Joy it’s your turn to clean
Joy: ok
Mike: are you ok?
Joy: yeah
Mike: do you need something?
Joy: no
Mike: I will go to my room
Vivian: do you need some help? You look tired
Joy: I’m fine
Vivian: I’ll wash the dishes
Joy: ….
Vivian: you strain yourself a lot.. Take some rest
Joy: I need to work to earn some money.. I don’t have a choice
Vivian: I know that… *yawning*
Joy: go to bed I’ll finish this
Vivian: are you sure?
Joy: yes
Vivian: ok
Joy: (they seem nice, they never did anything bad to me but still I need to but a distance between us I shouldn’t trust anyone.. I’m here because I need some place to stay not to find friends and they need me because I’m helping them with the rent and that’s it)
Mike: she is strange
Vivian: she is so poor.. She needs to work a lot to live
Mike: we all do.. but everyone needs to open up to someone
Vivian: you don’t know what she went through
Mike: we are not the bad guys she can trust us
Joy: I don’t think that you are bad guys
Mike and Vivian:!!
Joy: it’s not about you it’s about me
Vivian: look we are just trying to help you
Joy: how? You already need help
Mike: that’s the point.. we should stick together and help each other
Vivian: yeah.. We are roommate we can be good friends to each other
Joy smiled: thank you guys
(Their words made me feel a little safe, maybe I should start learn how to trust someone.. I mean I’m sure that in this dark universe there are still some good people, maybe if I share my life with some good people I will be better)
They went to sleep. There are two beds in the room, one for her and the other for Vivian
Vivian: just make sure that you can trust me
Joy:!!
Vivian: we are together in this
Joy smiled
Vivian: good night
Joy: good night
….
* Alarm*
it was 5 am
Vivian: I’m sure you just slept for three hours
Joy: did I wake you up?
Vivian: no
Joy: well I have to wake up to deliver the newspaper
Vivian: I decided to come with you today
Joy: but…
Vivian: for free.. I’ll just help you and try to act like a good friend
Joy: you don’t have to do…
Vivian: stop.. Go get ready
….
Joy: last house
Vivian sighed: are you really do this every day by yourself?
Joy: yes
Vivian: oh look at there, hot pies!!

Vivian: I went with Joy to deliver the newspaper and look what we brought for you
Mike: hot pies!!!
Joy: I’ll make the coffee
Mike: coffee and hot pies, what I’ve done to deserve this happiness?
Vivian: Joy bought them for us
Joy smiled: (happiness? Is that small things could be happiness? Eating hot pies and drinking coffee with good people can be a moment of happiness)
Joy: *chuckled*
Mike: we have to get ready for work
Vivian: yeah Mike and I work in a small restaurant so we take the train everyday to get there
Joy nodded
Mike: what you will do?
Joy: I work in a pet shop from 9 am until 5 pm
Vivian: on a pet shop?!

Joy: it’s a good place
Vivian: and then you go to the supermarket
Joy: yeah
Mike: you are very strong Joy.. Like seriously I have no idea how you do it
Joy: I have to be strong
Mike smiled: just take care of yourself more, ok?
Joy: ok

At the pet shop

Buster: *barking*
Joy: good dog

Joy:!!!!
This reminds her of
She stole from the supermarket again and ran away
While she was crossing the street a car hit her and her leg has been hurt.. She fell down in pain and cried
The driver got out of the car: what are you doing?! Don’t you see! Be careful!
Joy cried: my leg!!!
The driver:!!!
He got back in the car and escape
The seller: see it’s your punishment.. Steal from me again and I will kill you
Joy: help me.. My leg
The seller: stop acting and get up.. he didn’t hit you that bad
Joy: I’m not lying
He helped her to stand up and sit on the pavement
Joy was crying
The seller: now stop crying.. it will get better.. it’s not that bad
Joy: it’s bleeding!
The seller: and what? You want me to leave the supermarket and take you to the hospital? You don’t even deserve it.. Thief

Ethan: do you remember me?
Joy: no
Ethan: you are lying
Joy:!!!?
Ethan: you didn’t make an eyes contact with me
Joy: what do you mean?
Ethan: and you put your finger behind your ear.. that’s enough to know that you’re lying
Joy: who are you?!!!
Ethan: you don’t know me?
Joy: should I know you?
Ethan: I didn’t mean that.. I’m just kinda popular
Joy: !!
Ethan: I’m a psychologist, Dr. Ethan Wesley
Joy: I don’t know you
Ethan: now you know me, why do you feel uncomfortable?
Joy: do you need something?!
Ethan: relax! Its ok you can trust me
Joy: (it’s annoying; he knows everything I think of)
Ethan: I came to take some stuff for the dog
Joy:…..

She was putting some stuff in a bag for him.
He noticed a burn’s marks in her hand: how did you get that?!
Joy: when I was a little
Ethan: how?!

He burned her hand using a hot stick
Joy was screaming in pain and the other kids staring
…: next time I will burn your face
Joy crying
..: IS IT CLEAR?!
Joy nodded as yes
Ethan: hello!!
Joy: do you need something else?
Ethan:!!
Joy was about to cry and she covered up her hand
Ethan: you won’t forget it by cover it up or hide it from the others
Joy: !!!
Ethan: I can see that you need my help
Joy: I don’t need your help
Ethan: I can help you
Joy: I said I don’t need your help!
Ethan: I decide it.. if you need or not
Joy: I don’t want your help and I’m not a crazy to have a psychologist
Ethan: you have the wrong very old thoughts about the psychologist
Joy: whatever.. you don’t even know me!
Ethan: I can see if someone needs my help, it’s kinda my job
Joy: what you know?
Ethan: you went throw a lot… your eyes can talk
Joy:!!!
Ethan: things you want to forget but it hunts you
Joy: can you leave?! Please
Ethan: why? You feel like I’m exposing you?
Joy: what are you talking about?!
Ethan: I will help you for free if it’s about money
Joy: I will tell you for the last time.. I don’t need help! leave me alone!!
Ethan: I know it’s weird, I am a stranger to you now, you feel like you can’t trust me but I’m not the bad guy
Joy: please!
Ethan: I found someone who needs my help, I can’t leave you behind
Joy: well I told you, I don’t want your help so please, would you leave?
Ethan: but I will come again
Joy: don’t
Ethan:…
Joy: what’s wrong with you! You came here with all this shits.. you don’t even know me!!! So just take your damn stuff and leave!!
Ethan: look, that’s what I’m talking about… all this rage it’s inside you and it will kill you!
Joy: got it , I got it
Ethan: what?
Joy: please stop pretends that you care about me or the people like me… you just want to be more popular or whatever the hell you want
Ethan: I’m not going to say anything more… you don’t know me so don’t judge me
Joy: you have all the right to judge me but I don’t?
Ethan gave her his card: in case you change your mind
Joy: that’s not gonna happen
Ethan left
Joy let out big sigh!!
…………………….
I’m tired..
This life is very difficult to live.. it never stops teaching you lessons.
All my life I’ve waited for someone.. Anyone to help me, to take my hand to walk with me in the same road
But no one did
So I learned to not trust anyone!
I’m not crazy, but I’m cautious..
……
C town supermarket:
Joy: thank you, come again
She took the remote control and changed the channel
*today we are with our special guest Dr. Ethan Wesley
Clapping…
The interviewer: it’s an honor to have you here with us Doctor
Joy: oh!!
Dr. Ethan: I’m glad to be here today and I hope that everyone will benefit.
The interviewer: so Dr. Ethan tell us about your expertise
Dr. Ethan: I studied behavior and mental processes, it’s a very series field.. now a lot of people still think that the psychologist is for the crazy mad people.. but I think everyone have fears that can’t face or a past that can’t escape of needs a psychologist.
The interviewer: why you think they still believe that?
Dr. Ethan: it’s just because they choose to follow the old thoughts and they don’t want to have the right point about all this.. Because our society judged rashly that’s the problem
Joy: (I guess)
The interviewer: nice, now we heard about all your successes
Dr, Ethan: yes
The interviewer: what’s the secret?
Dr. Ethan: I think all the patients need to talk with someone who they feel they can trust, and there should be no barriers between the doctor and his patients.. So it’s all about the relationships and how you deal with the others.
The interviewer: so your secret is how you deal with your patients, that how you get in their heart
Dr. Ethan: exactly
The interviewer: but now with this excellent reputation I think it’s much easier
Dr. Ethan: it will never be easy.. We should fight for it to get what we aspires, and the most important thing is to put a goal that we want to achieve
Joy: (he is so good!)
The interviewer: well let’s talk about your personal life
Dr, Ethan smiled..
The interviewer: well a lot of girls want to know if you have someone in your life
Dr. Ethan: no there is no one right now
The interviewer: it’s good news for the girls
Dr. Ethan laughed
The interviewer: tell us about the fans
Dr. Ethan: well there are a lot of girls who came to my office pretending that they needs help
The interviewer laughed: but it’s not that bad to have this number of fans
Dr. Ethan smiled: I guess
Joy: such a womanizer, I bet he enjoys it
...: can I have (…..)
Joy: sure!
She turns off the TV

………….
I can’t go back to have this nightmares..
I don’t want to feel it all over again..
it stopped because I stopped looking into this.. into the past… into my past
all what I ever want is to escape!
What if it’s really hunting me?
What if he is right?!
I stopped looking for the truth because I couldn’t handle the pain.. but what if it’s the only way to escape? to be free?
It’s confusing!
The day has end.. I didn’t met him today… it’s not that I was waiting for him to shown up
Maybe I did!
He didn’t come in the end..
………….
At home..
She came home early today.. Because she didn’t go to the supermarket.. she brought some vegetables and things on her way
Joy: they will come after two hours
She looked at her phone: they didn’t send me anything.. I think I didn’t get the job
She decided to cook something so she started to wash the vegetables..

Ethan: you said you thought about that in the beginning?
Joy: I took that as an excuse but then I kept thinking about what you said
Ethan: and?
Joy: I accept your offer
Ethan: really?
Joy: let’s make a deal
Ethan: what deal?
Joy: you need me to be more popular.. to be Doctor hero
Ethan: is that what you think of me? That I want to use you?
Joy: ………
Ethan: huh..
Joy: no one do something for free…. There must be interest for you
Ethan: no one is an angle Joy… so you
Joy: you are right
Ethan: but there are good people around… I’m not an angle but I like to help people like you.. it’s my job
Joy: I did some research about you, you helped a lot people like me for free… I understand how good you are in this but that’s made you who you are today… a popular, isn’t what you want?
Ethan: It is… but what’s wrong about being so good at your career? Yes that’s made me who I am today but what’s wrong about that?
Joy: I’m not saying it’s wrong I’m just saying you don’t do this for me you do this for yourself
Ethan: I told you don’t judge me if you don’t know me
Joy:…….
Ethan: you did a research, but there is a part of me that it’s so private and I never shared it with anyone
Joy: what’s that?
Ethan: my real story, why I wanted to do this
Joy: if I asked you, would you tell me?
Ethan: I’m not going to open up to someone who don’t trust me and judge me
Joy: then don’t
She was about to leave
He stopped her: wait!
Joy: let go of me
Ethan: what’s the deal?
Joy: forget about it.. I take what I said back
Ethan: why?
Joy: I don’t want to get you wrong.. I don’t know you… I can’t trust you.. I don’t know how I will do this
Ethan gave her his address: then figure out how you will do all this…. I’ll wait for you
Joy:…..
Ethan: good night
