...So, the system started to stimulate my growth...I don't know to much about that yet, but I will be able to learn...I am pretty sure about that much...
...Soon, I will be able to protect my family...even if it is from themselves...
...Ahhhh...hmhmm, I think Howard is here to play with me again...
--- --- ---
(...SHIK-SHIK-SHIK-SHIK-SHIK-...)-Sewing Machine-
[Howard]...Good morning brother, I hoped you slept well...despite all the noise mother and father makes, yelling and all...
...It has been about a year since the system started to stimulate my growth...true to its words, my wisdom and intelligence attributes went up...while my charisma went down...it really has become hard to even think of how to approach anyone, it confuses me thinking about it...I know more things than I use to...I remember more things than I did before, it even has been easier to be more aware of my surroundings...but I can't really talk to anyone, not that I really mind that to much...as long as I have my family, that is all I need...
[Billy]...Good Morning, B-Brother...
...I even became able to say words again to, I am really happy about that...I can finally ask my brother questions that I have...he is so smart...
[Howard]...Since mother is sewing right now, how about me and you go for a walk. I know how that makes you feel better...
[Billy]...I would like that, very much so...
...it is still hard to talk to him, even though he is my brother...it really is...
[Howard]...Well, okay then. Come on, the faster the better...
[Billy]...The Faster The B-Better...coming Howard...
...Howard and I have become the best of friends...I see him talking to other people all the time, they never become friends though...when I asked him why, he said they are a "Means to an End"...he said he never wanted to be friends with those type of folk, the ones with those clubs in their hand...I can understand why, they don't seem like nice people...it has become easier to 'read' my family, figure out how they are feeling and if they are being truthful and all...it helps me figure out which are the good people, those Howard talks to...
-Howard and Bill walk out their front door-
...It is a cloudy day today, it is easier for me to see on these kinds of days...the ones where the sun is mostly blocked, it is too bright for me if it isn't...Howard says he is still figuring out why I am so sensitive to things like that...I guess he isn't for some reason, which I am happy for...he doesn't need to have these pains that I do...
[Billy]...So B-Brother, where are we going today?...to see some of your 'friends'...
[Howard]...Hmmm...sadly, yes...we will be seeing some of my 'friends' again today. With their help, I am gaining access to many different things...things that will help us in the future.
[Billy]...It is okay, I don't mind that too much...I just don't like seeing you...well, not YOU...
[Howard]...I know brother, I know...I don't like being 'not me' either, especially around you...but, I have to be like that to get some of my plans moving along. These types of people, are not easy to deal with. They are...bullies, I have to talk to them in a way that makes them feel better about themselves...otherwise, they can't be reasoned with...do you understand what I am saying, brother?
[Billy]...Yes, I understand...to get things done in life, you and I can't...b-be us. Otherwise, we can't get the things we want done...done.
[Howard]...Yes! That is exactly it brother, exactly! You know, despite what others may think of you, you are actually smarter than most people...you just can't seem to understand them...or talk to them.
[Billy]...I know, it is just so hard to do it...it is even hard to talk to you most of the time...b-but, I try my b-best, I really do...
[Howard]...Which is just fine, brother. So what if you have trouble talking with people who don't and won't understand you, you still have me and I understand you just fine. With us together, we can do anything. I mean, look at you!...You are almost three years old, You are smarter than the average person, and You are almost as tall as me! I can only imagine what you will be like when we are older...
[Billy]...Yeah, yeah I know. You do always know how to cheer me up, B-Brother. Thank you...
[Howard]...Okay, lets change the subject...brother, I know you don't like to...but can you please tell me your 'Status' again?...
...Ohhh yeah...I told Howard about the System...he was really confused at first, but eventually I was able to convince him...took me awhile though...
[Billy]...Okay, B-Brother...give me a moment...
