Betrayal of Freedom Here I am again; working for another rich family to do their labour. I hate having no freedom. I have been owned by different rich families ever since I was born. I am now 16‚ 17 in a month‚ I think. I kind of lose track. I never met my parents. They were slaves for other folks so I guess I won’t ever get to meet them. I don’t get jealous of the rich families though. They got no respect; the young spoilt‚ spiteful children treat me like a piece of shit on their shoe. I can’t do

That summer afternoon‚ as I remember it‚ was doubtlessly a commemorable one. Breezy‚ yet humid. Bright yet shadowed by the monsters that the afternoon sun cast upon all things animate and inanimate. Even though my generation belongs to one of technology‚ I will always be gratified to be able to claim that my youth was still filled with sweaty foreheads and rusty old bikes. I was only twelve when my great adventure took place. Keelan and Matthew Daniel‚ known to many as the definition of rednecks
