To the Stars And Back

[6:45am]

An eighteen year old boy, with flaming red hair and sharp mercury eyes wrote a long letter for his still sleeping mother. He taped the letter to the refrigerator, and went to his mother's room. His mom was still fast asleep, he knew she'd still be asleep. She's been pulling all nighters for three days and this was her first break for the month.

"Bye mom" he told her, before carefully closing the door and leaving the house. "Karma!" he stopped right outside the gate when his little sister Kora came out of the house hurrying after him, a red facemask and in hand. "You left your mask behind!" She angrily told him.

Karma just chuckled before messing up his sister's red hair, before pedalling away. "Be safe! And tell dad I said hi and we miss him! And-" the rest of his sister's request was lost by the wind. Karma breathed in the fresh, early morning air. "Finally free" he chuckled.

[9:20am]

Hours later, the red haired teenager stopped in the middle of an empty road. There was only field of endless green all around him, which was perfect for the business he needs to do. Carrying his bike with him, he unbuckled his pants and squatted down.

[9:30am]

"Phew! Success" he cheered, wiping his behind with wet wipes and fixing his pants. "Hey! Were you spying on me?!" He heard someone angrily yell. Whipping his head to the source, he saw a boy standing a few feet away from him. Karma slipped and fell back. "Owe" he groaned, but was quick to get on his feet "No no wait! I wasn't spying on you" he tried to explain, running after the blond boy

"Get away from me! And your shit smells awful!" The boy spat.

"Does yours smell like roses?!" Karma demanded.

The boy he was chasing got into a car, which Karma figured was his, and started the engine. Karma ran forward but the car backed into him so hard he was sent on his back, then he watched the vehicle drive away

Karma groaned and rubbed his stomach. Then, to his surprise, the car came back. The boy stepped out of the car, looking guilty "hey uh, are you alright?" He asked sheepishly. "Is it alright to get run over?" Karma asked raising a brow

"I didn't run you over!" The other boy tried to explain himself. Karma just sighed

The boy helped him up, saying that he'll take him to the hospital to check if there was anything broken. Karma just allowed him

"My bike!" He remembered. "It's still back there". The orangey-blond boy, because he didn't know what hair color the guy had, went back to the field, and a few minutes later returned with his back. The boy pushed the bike in the backseat before going to the front. He started the engine "buckle up" he told Karma

The two drove in silence for a while. With Karma occasionally making groans of pain while rubbing his stomach, just to fill silence. The other boy would glance at him warily "Does it hurt that badly?" He asked. "Oh yea, very bad" Karma answered with an expression of pain and suffering, which seemed to worry his driver more. Karma smirked at the obvious guilt in his eyes

"Actually you don't need to take me to a hospital, I don't like hospitals" he suddenly said. His companion looked at him "uhh, then, if we're not going to a hospital then where can I drop you of?"
