Chapter 1Everything must go!

I can't keep going like this. Since years and years ago I've been collecting every object that has been important in my past (videogames, books, CD's, cassette tapes, Vinyls, collectible figures, VHS's, DVD's, Blu-rays, documents, old coins, bicycles, motorcycles, TV's, stereos, workout machines, clothes and even phonographs), and now my house's full. I can barely walk without stepping on somethig. There's no sunlight. I can't enter some of the rooms because of everything that's piled on the floor. I can't even get close to any closet because everything that surrounds it, and, even if I could, I can't open it because everything's inside barely fits there, and it would fall on me. Besides, every day I have to eat somewhere else because I don't have enough space for a fridge or even a cupboard.

I'm suffocating between so much dust and nostalgia.

That's why I've decided to sell everything on the internet. I just need lots of time to take pictures and upload them, but I don't have anything better to do.

It's been amazing: in just a couple weeks I've gained more than six months of my salary, and I have more space to myself. I can finally walk without stepping or dropping anything, I've taken away some of the piles that were blocking the windows, And I've already have a small cupboard.

But the best of all is I've found lots of stuff I didn't ever remember I had in the first place.

About a week ago, I've started selling everything I had collecting dust in some room, y little by little I've been emptying it until I found a cradle in a corner. I remember we bought it a long time ago for Valeria. She was my princess, but she grew up so fast. I bought her lots and lots of dolls and stuffed animals; they must be here somewhere. But anyway, back to the cradle, I remember Felipe used it next. I barely remember him. He must be now in fourth or fifth grade.

Do you think they still both remember me?

I can't keep going like this. I've already sold almost everything I have, and now I think my house is too big: the hallways are too wide, there's lots of room I never use, there's sunlight everywhere, I don't need a kitchen that big, and I barely have any furniture. And there's no one left.

Sometimes I go to some flea markets and pawn shops to relax, and end up buying more and more of the same garbage I've been selling, and I don't want it anymore, but what else can I do? I've been doing this all my life, and what will happen if I sell everything? What will be left?

I can't even recognize myself anymore.

Orphaned in the old world after taking care of his irresponsible and sick mother for years on end, Kyle finds his life turned upside down. His already dim world turns even gloomier and coupled with his trauma from losing her, Kyle felt like he had lost his purpose in life. Living day by day, akin to a soulless puppet, he struggled to keep his suicidal thoughts in check, all whilst trying to make ends meet as a cabbie. During those dark times, Kyle slowly begins to find solace in the world of music and movies. Even though it had always been there, it truly became something as a bloodline of sorts for him because, individually, both pieces of media, transported him to another world, one where he could feel happy, if even for a fleeting moment. And, as if the universe wanted even more for him, Kyle met some lovely old people, all of whom treated him as the son they never had, making him feel like he had a family after so long. This eventually, helped him let go of his trauma and turned him into the lovely soul he was always meant to be. But as fate would have it, these same people, wanted for Kyle to pursue his dreams because they saw the potential for greatness in him and the wonderous things he could go on to do, even if Kyle himself was oblivious to it. So, in an effort to make his dreams come true, they ended up gifting him a brand new chance, one that Kyle himself would only go on to realize after his untimely death in a fatal car accident. Now awake in the new world, still orphaned but with a brighter perspective on life, Kyle, armed with a System, another gift from his loved ones in the previous world, decides to take the chance to pursue his dreams of being a star, one that he was unable to pursue in his previous life due to his lack of talent. This is the story of a man who will go on to become the most versatile and renowned superstar all over the world... and it starts, just as he takes his first step into the cutthroat world of fame and fortune by registering for the popular singing reality TV competition, 'Rising Voices'. Known to be a fiercely competitive TV show, Kyle will meet with top contestants from around the world, go up against them, level up and become better, and ultimately, battle with them for the number one spot in the show as a dark horse! --- |AUTHOR NOTE| Just wanted to make it clear, that the singing competition which will be the first arc of the novel, will end around the late twenty-ish or early thirty-ish chapters. After that, you can expect so much more from the story so look forward to it! Also, although the setting is in a parallel world, all the songs, scripts and movies (although I will draw inspiration here and there), will be originals penned by yours truly (-‿◦).
