Reilly has never been able to socialize with others and it made him a outcast amongst his peers. In Mayflower middle school students are encouraged to have specified skills in certain areas to see where they will eventually fit into society. Reilly however was an exception to this do to his circumstances. The bell for day had rung and students all rushed to leave do to this being the last time they were going to hear it. Reilly not in a hurry let the mass crowd of teens push one another in a hurry to leave. Everyone has now gone outside Reilly now descending the stone steps started his trek to his not so happy place that most call home. Walking down the pavement Reilly was now more afraid unconsciously grabbed his arm were his bruises are hidden under his jacket. Stopped at a crosswalk after waiting about 15 seconds to the light deemed it safe to cross, not noticing a truck coming full speed ahead Reilly's body was flung like a ragdoll." OH MY GOD CALL AN AMBULANCE SOMEONE" a man yelled witnessing the horror. Reilly however was strangely happy ' I don't have to go home ever again' feeling the darkness take hold he closed his eyes never to open them again or at least he thought so.
