Today had been a really bad day for him.
It seemed bad luck was just following him today. The day started off with his alarm clock not going off, so he ended up scrambling to get to work
I was just a child then, so small and innocent, completely oblivious to the world and the war that was burning it. I was just a child, living in a good home with kind and loving parents in the capital city, it was such a large city. I went to a very nice school and played with friends whenever I got the chance. These were the reasons why I never asked any questions about it or ever wondered if we were safe or not. The war also started about a year after I was born so I always thought the soldiers driving through our neighborhood and the fighter jets roaring through the skies to be normal. A few times I was concerned when soldiers would pass b
