My life has been neither miserable nor amazing, if you were to ask me what I think of the world I would describe it in 2 words "Bullshit". I may sound pessimistic or negative but at the end of the day humanity is still searching for freedom as in the past.
In my opinion, even if we try to do the impossible to achieve it, we will never get it, because in the end we do not deserve it, because of the mistakes of characters that marked events in history as Julius Caesar, Caligula or other character that was known in the history of mankind that only showed tyranny to the world.
Let's leave aside the philosophical, I am currently hanging from a tree upside down and at any moment I will die with a single mistake and why the hell am I like this, well even I don't know the truth, I just wanted to do it and I did it. I have always been interested in the unknown so this is the first time I try this, probably being like this is the reason why I am thinking about stupid things at this moment.
"I´m bored"
Just at that moment I remembered a fragment of the past, it was strange not the event but the cause, I have been dreaming for a while now or having memories that I don't remember or that have happened. 12 years ago when I was 6 years old I somehow lost my memory, kind of cliché if you ask me, it would be funny if it turned out that at that age I was doing crazy witty things or things out of the ordinary.
And that's because people usually say I'm a genius, a true prodigy for humanity, I was able to process every information at a speed 10 times faster than average, I remembered even insignificant things even if years went by, I was able to learn new subjects and apply them just by being taught once and not only mentally but also physically, I broke the supposed speed limit that someone my age should have, I was able to lift up to 325kg with great effort, I even won 5 times a MMA tournament and all that at the age of 14.
In the past I thought that was weird, I just thought << It's really impressive?>> yes I know I was very ignorant.
My mother always said I was like that since I was 2 years old, although she was impressed by my achievements and my incredible capabilities, she never in life overwhelmed me or tried to overexploit me, she just let me be whatever I wanted since she knew that even geniuses get tired of things, after all they were human too if I had to describe her without a doubt it would be as: Kind, social, empathetic, strong, intelligent and too innocent.
She had a very fragile appearance as if she were a porcelain doll, her straight and light brown hair that shone every moment the sun bathed her with its shining light, light blue eyes as if you could see the ocean in them. The truth was she was very attractive, too much to the point that if I left her they would be flirting with her and that really worried me a lot.
It would be better for me to look for a partner for her? not that I doubt her choices but it is better to be safe than sorry, right?
"Einar?"
The moment I finished thinking about it I just heard a voice as pleasant as a melody of the birds and that voice was my mother's voice.
"Speaking of the king of Rome"
"Hurry up or you'll miss your ride"
"Got it"
Very well I can, if I manage to stay in this position in so long I should manage to get down from here logically.
**
"Son you have to be more careful, you should be thankful that it was just a few bruises"
Yes as you are thinking the incredible genius fell out of the tree and in the most stupid way possible.
"Damn birds"
When I was about to get down from the tree after having grabbed the trunk a little bird got on me and began to peck me, I did not take it seriously and continued down little by little and just out of nowhere as if the bird hated me let out a beautiful sound that who would say it would be a declaration of war and appeared all his family attacking me as if it depended on their lives. And for a change the two little ones threw their shit on my head. Life is unfair and cruel even the most innocent is the most dangerous.
"You should take a shower before leaving, I don't think it would be very pleasant to present yourself with a unique smell, don't you think?"
Shame, anger and hatred. This moment I declare war to all flying beings and they will understand that their biggest mistake was to have challenged me and never to have finished off the last attack.
After she told me that, my mother covers her mouth with her hand to try not to laugh. Yes, I will certainly wipe those demons from hell out of existence. I decide to get up with a pain in my back and head straight to the bathroom to have a cold shower and refresh my body after having suffered such humiliation.
Looking in the mirror, I saw a very attractive young man with somewhat pale skin. His hair was as dark as obsidian and his eyes were as blue as the river. He had a very defined body for someone his age, and his height far surpassed the average height for his gender.
"What a handsome man!"
***
"All right I'm leaving now mom"
"Have a good school trip and say hi to Lucia for me"
"Yes I know, I love you"
"Me too, take care of yourself and don't do anything crazy"
The truth is that I feel bad leaving her alone and the reason was because my father died years ago, I don't remember much about him I only knew that he was a well known businessman in the trade selling very advanced technologies that had not been released internationally until 4 years ago.
The other reason was because my mother is now in charge of the company, the truth as I expected from my mother is doing very well and even with the passage of time improved the company, both my parents named it "ROF" which means rewriting our fate.
Something special the name really, leaving all that aside right now I am taking the bus to go to school and get ready to go to the school trip. This is my last year so my class decided to take a trip as a souvenir and enjoy our youth, if I'm honest the only reason I got excited about this was because I go with everyone I know, I swore that when I entered this school I wouldn't have many friends who would say I'd be completely wrong.
***
After 10 minutes of travel when I got off the bus and entered the school, the first thing I heard was a shout of my name that resounded throughout the sector.
"Einar!!!"
There's only one person who would scream my name that way and that's my best friend Lucia, I have known her since I was 10 years old and she has been the only one who accompanied me for so long. If I had to summarize his appearance it would be "Idol" and his personality "Childish" Yeah, well the truth is that regardless of her attitude I still appreciate her.
She draws too much attention to the point where even some of her gender blush just by looking at her and that attention is somewhat annoying since she spends most of her time with me to the point where others think we are dating, when the truth is that I am not very interested in love and not only me but Lucia also thinks the same or that is what I think, it could be that she has really fallen in love with me, it is not that it bothers me but I really would not know what to do if that really were the case.
"Lucia, how many times do I have to tell you not to shout my name like that, especially in public places? Have some decency."
"Hehe, I'm sorry, but it's so funny to see your annoyed face when you get so much attention, much more than you get."
Who would have thought that behind that beauty hides a little devil who likes to annoy his best friend a lot.
Her appearance is something special: her long, onyx-black hair, golden eyes as if you were seeing the shine of a star, a figure that even many actresses would envy, a height that's much taller than average, and a very striking attitude.
It's no surprise that several people are attracted to her. Thank God she doesn't have a nickname like "The Goddess." And something else to fill that nickname, it would be too repetitive, literally straight out of a manga or webtoon.
I read that stuff!! What's the problem?
"I'm very excited for the trip. Who would have thought we'd go to France, the country of love?"
"I think it would be better to say Paris the city of love than the country, although, well, that's a personal preference."
"Yes, yes, yes, whatever you're saying, old man, I'm listening to you veryyyyy well, lalalala."
WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD FALL IN LOVE WITH THIS WOMAN!!!!
"Einar, look, it seems the director is going to speak. Let's go quickly."
"Mmmm?"
Great, now comes the typical speech. I wish I could skip this scene like in the games.
"Okay, dear seniors. This will be your longest and most fun trip to finish your semester. The bus will arrive soon to take us to the airport. In the meantime, wait patiently. After all, we still have time. It's not as if the end of the world is coming."
Who the hell would say that during a class discussion? I think this man lacks a bit of a sense of timing.
***
I wish those words had never come out of his mouth.
Would it have been a coincidence?
Did fate take those words seriously?
I wish I could reset time. If only I'd known ahead of time, I would have become stronger and smarter. The world that seemed like shit to me now seems like paradise compared to the one I have now.
But now it's no longer worth backing down. I have to be strong for today, for the people I love, and for humanity.
Or what's left of it.
