I'd never really been one to be depressed about the past, but I was at the moment.
It'd had been exactly 18 months ago today since my family had been taken from me.
I never really thought about it while working, just every now and again, while out drinking, alone as usual.
I tip the bottle of firewhiskey to my lips taking a miserable swig, then return my attention to the wood of the table, sighing slightly.

"If you keep sighing people will begin to think you're depressed"

"Good job I don't care what people think of me then isn't it?" I say, glancing up briefly.

"No problem and nothing new. Don't worry about it." I smile slightly, then extend a hand to her, "Charlie Owens."

"yeah, after I left I kinda just drifted off from my old friends. There was nothing wrong with them...I just changed." I sighed,"Too bad about her brothers though. They deserved so much better."
