Caretaker and the Child Ep2
Gene walked towards them and he wanted to choose the angel but for some reason, he couldn't. The angel started to morph into unrecognizable being. All luster and hope were gone; the holy grail was taken away from him. He grabbed tightly onto himself , almost screaming. The devil chose him.
"Gene, what's wrong?"that voice embraced him with its warm arms and he threw himself towards his parents behind him.
"Monsters.... the.. there are monsters. They ar...re behind me." He squeezed those tears out of his eyes, refusing to open them.
"What monsters? Your creativity is running wildly these days, isn't it?" His parents patted Gene but fear clung on fiercely.
The devil was gone.
Gene was brought home after he bought a cup of ice cream to calm his nerves. That horrendous look was ingrained in his memory, refusing to be erased. He tried to assure himself that these things don't exist but no avail. Fear crept up his back. He asserted all his might and threw himself onto the bed. Crawling under the sheets, he forced himself to sleep.
A tunnel of light beckoned him. He followed. Stopped.
"Gene! Wait for me!"
Who was the guy calling out to him?
14th April
Today is a Sunday. Don't feel like going to school tomorrow. Who would? Relatively boring day. Nothing to do...downloaded osu! And play for a while before starting revision for Tuesdays math test. Cousin got into a car accident but thankfully they were okay. Ya.... dont feel like writing much today.

The Caretaker and the Child
It was an exceptionally warm day and the sun gleamed brilliantly at the earthlings. Gene was bolting across the bustle streets of California and his parents trailed behind, discussing something discreetly. Gene disregarded his parents and continued flying his kite. The red piece of plastic flew freely like how Gene had always wanted to. His parents kept him in his room all day flooding him with loads of homework and this is the closest he got to freedom. The red blob in the bright sky grew smaller and smaller. Gene realized that the string of his kite snapped and chased after it.
"Yes! I will chase you and get away from my parents!" Gene giggled and was happy with the little diabolical plan he had hatched. Gene ran across the road to continue his pursuit and conveniently, the traffic light turned green and a river of cars separated the family. He looked at the vanishing red kite and gave up. "Hmm...now that I'm alone, I think I will go to that game shop round the corner."
Out of the sudden, his head was pounding, as if an arrow had impaled his tiny head. He bent down and squinted his eyes so hard that tears went rolling down his cheeks. Looking up, he saw 2 faint figures in front of him resembling the illustrations he saw in his book, "Bible for children". Angel and Devil. He was so appalled he fell back on his bottom. He rubbed his eyes naively thinking this would be the way to get rid of the 2 out-of-place beings in front of him. His pounding head was no help to his attempt to comprehend the situation. The 2 figures were still there.
"Gene, I have been watching you ever since you were born. I know you have a kind soul. Follow me and we can help the people who need help."said the angel.
"Gene, come on. You seriously think that the halo-hat being can do anything. Kindness is for wimps. Come with me and I will give you power and immortality."the devil said with a raspy voice.
Who would he choose?

Rainy Saturday
I didn’t write a post yesterday because I fell asleep watching . Yesterday’s CO session was different because 张老 came up during 大组合 and criticized us very badly but I think his criticisms are very valid. Kinda disappointed how some 二胡 guys are slouching and using their phones even when 张老 is scolding us. Before that, 刘老师 was especially kind to us probably because the 3 of us were playing very well as Jedd and Wei Cong are busy with SMOPS organization. During the day, we had a briefing by Mr Tommie on the Prelim Round for Project Competition. Enough of yesterday, moving on to the present. It’s 10.45 now and I’m considering whether to buy Sean Beeson’s Ivory Dreams. It’s S$11.98 but I think it is worth it. This morning I went to the dentist and changed the wire for my braces, it was tight but still have to persevere. 9 months to go! After that, I went to NTUC and bought things. I did some homework and finished the first prototype of the comics that would be in the final product for our project. But Xin Kai was rushing me and I was really angry. He didn’t really do much(at least that is what I thought) and only attended 1 meeting with Ms Liew out of 3. My hand was shivering as I drew the comic, probably due to hunger, and luckily Jiping stood up for me and explained it to Xin Kai. Thanks:D That should be about everything…off to drink my 汤药！

Rainy Wednesday
This is my first journal post and I wanted to have this page for a very long time due to damn procrastination. Yup, today was okay overall. Jiping , Zi Ding and Hwank were fighting with the glitter on the Chinese New Year decorations and Hwank became ‘glitter man” . Mr Low went through the basics of Principle Quantum Shells and Mr Tan went through free fall. During the biology lesson, I went to library with Elton and Zi Ding, they played Chinese and International Chess while I worked on the project presentation slides because the Project Preliminary Round is round the corner on 9th April. I planned to work on the slides with him but he would rather sit through Mr Low’s remedial even though he got an A1 for Chem last term. I just don’t get it. I just think he is very afraid to lose out. It is 8.47pm now and I’m finishing off. Tee hee.
