One Shot

I am ordinary but I am different. I don't know but my sense of smell is just so sensitive, I can't identify the origin or it's name but something is strange something is fishy and this time I know something is going on here.

I came from a poor household, so fine. Lacking yet satisfied. I can't wish for more for I was raised to never fill my heart with desire. I never felt so jealous with anyone but there's something within me so unexplainable and not so ordinary. What could this be. What emotions am I feeling or what do people call this thing.

I am unable to know what some of my emotions are but I know that they are so different and not so right.

One time I was passing walking trough the alleyway. Same as usual I needed to walk passed trough it towards our home. As I walk and continue my track, I smell the most disgusting smell I've ever smelled before. A smell so aromatic yet so dangerously piercing. It's a drug no its not, it's a fresh music to my nostrils. No it's dangerous but so addicting.

There I saw people burning something and sniffing things I don't even know what they call that.

I walked and pass trough them I was glad they didn't pick a fight with me and I smiled knowing I get trough them.

I continued walking but I saw shadows following me from behind and as I turn around I saw their faces and I saw how evil some there auras are.

They tap my shoulders and asked if I can accompany them. I know my limits and I know that I can't handle them.

I followed them and ask why or what are we doing in this dark suburbs. They offer something strange they let me tried it but I refused. They said they knew all along that I was into it the moment I smelled it.

Their eyes are so dangerous and I know if I refuse one more, they'll do something against my will.

I tried sniffing but damn how I went to paradise in an instant, the aroma is so good and I want to ask for more.

I felt the very top of the summit the cloud nine the glee and bliss a person could never imagined.

Then I saw how their smiles went so wide.

I run for my life but as I started running, I saw how flowers blooms, I saw how things are flying. And at the end of the suburbs I saw a bright light I wanted to find out where that light is coming from. I followed, I walked, I hurried and before I knew death is what I saw.

I suddenly felt the touch of reality but too late to step back from the ending I've never wanted to have.

I felt how warm my blood is. I felt no pain but I hear nothing. I saw a man running towards me with a worried eyes and yeah…

I was hit by a truck whom I thought a bright light where paradise reside. And everything went black.

This is a reminder, a lesson in one shot that do not take anything what people are trying to offer you. May it be drugs or anything bad, learn to avoid and learn to choose reality even if illusionary joy is worth more than what life is.
