Diamond Sykes

Chapter One: In the Beginning

For a fourteen-year-old boy life was hard. I had no life before I became Diamond Brett Healey, but what I did have was hell. The story of me becoming Diamond Brett Healey began when I was just fourteen and this is my take.

I lay hear just like every night, it’s the only place I can get away from the yelling of my parents. I lay hear on top of my bedroom roof, nobody knows about this place but me. I look up at the night sky and wonder what the stars really are, I think to my self, there diamonds, thousands of them, shinning down on the world, and each individual diamond is shinning on one person, making everybody equal and live in peace.

The next day I woke up and went into the kitchen where for some reason I thought that there may be breakfast waiting for me, but as usual their wasn’t. My mother is usually drunk in the morning and I never new where my dad was at this time. So I left for school without breakfast once again. School is no safer than home, we live in a bad neighbor hood, on the east side of Perth, I guess I’m lucky to be just about the only one in my school who wasn’t already on drug’s. At school I get beaten, and I never know why, but I guess I’ve gotten use to it over the years. I am a really passive person so I can never win arguments with anyone, not my parents, not the guys at school, not even my teachers.

I sometimes wonder, that if each diamond up there is shinning on one person, witch is mine? Or is mine just a black hole that draws every other star in like a spiral of death.

I cant sleep most nights listening to the noise of my parents arguing, and I wonder where I get my passiveness from. Every night I have the same dream, its like I’m watching my self from above, and that the Brett Healey I can see below is some sort of an ego maniac, he looks a bit older than me, about 15-16 I suppose, but all he does is show off his clothes, and his attitude witch I cant stand. This time the dream was a bit different, the other Brett Healey is strutting around as usual, but then he stops and looks up at me and smiles in the strangest way, he then gestures for me to come down to him or something, then I woke up at that point to the sound of my mum cooking bacon on the fry pan. I ran into the kitchen with a huge smile on my face, finally I have breakfast! But when I got to the kitchen, I saw the TV on and a cooking show was making some sort of bacon meal, I could have screamed then, but I just went on like any other normal day.

There was a house next door to us witch nobody was living in, as long as I’ve been alive anyway. Today I saw a car pull up to the driveway along side the house, and I saw an elderly looking Asian man step out of the car. I walked over to say g’day, but he ignored me and went inside, I guess he couldn’t speak English or something. I waited near the fence witch boarded our drive way and his, then he came out of the house and walked towards me with wide eye’s, well wide for an Asian anyway. I was backing off scared as hell, then he jumped the fence with incredible agility, and ran me down, he tackled me to the ground, and yelled to me
“You shouldn’t be hear Brett Healey!” Well he must have herd my mum yelling my name, that’s how he new who I am, but what is he talking about?
