Chapter 3 - Chapter 2

 I pack the little stuff I have with me....nothing actually.

Just myself and the clothes I have on.

I was going to move into NewYork City tonight and make a living.

At night, I got ready to leave the alley and find my way to NewYork City.

There were night buses that were free so I didn't have to worry about paying for bus fare.

 The people on this bus were just few, I noticed and turned to the window.

"I hate my life", I murmur to myself, watching the tall and amazing buildings as the bus drove by.

The bus stopped at a bus stop and I got down and made my way to my destination even though I didn't really know where I was going to.

 I considered spending the night at an alley nearby but it was already occupied and it stank.

There was a deranged man sitting down on the floor beside a dumpster so I didn't notice him on time.

 The next second, a small pen knife flew towards me and I gasped, only managing to dodge it but it still cut my cheek.

It would've landed in my left eye if I wasn't fast enough and I wasn't ready to lose one eye, just yet.

"This is my spot, lad!...I ain't in the mood for no competition" the man said and I gulped.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were here....I was just looking for a place to spend the night" I answered.

 "This alley's dangerous and I don't share but I'll let you off, just for tonight" He said and I was glad

I thanked him and moved towards the other side so I could settle down and sleep because I was exhausted and I didn't miss the fact that he was watching me closely....he was being wary of me actually.

 And that didn't make any sense because he was armed and I wasn't.

He literally sliced a small cut in my cheek!

 Immediately I laid down on some torn cartons from packages, I dozed off.

I was pretty tired.
