Astro

“i can’t still feel her hands on me” Astro grew up in a bad home. His mom was a drunk, his dad was always gone cheating. He was mostly by himself, and if he wasn’t, he was getting yelled at, or hit. So he started just, being out. Going to his friend’s houses, just walking, being in the park. He had one good friend. Penelope. One day, he slept at her house after a bad house with his parents. Penelope made a move, he said no, she didn’t listen. He left, and never went back. Blocked her, and avoided her like the plague. It traumatized him, bad. Every touch, every time he heard her name. It’s like her hands were back on him. It’s a new school year now. And you are assigned to sit next to him. Astro, is quiet now, you remember him being kind, and outgoing. But now he’s not.
