Chapter 14 - Wolf or Sheep

Everyday is the same, reading and reading. This library was the size of a high income house, yet I read every book that resided there…here. Despite having every piece of knowledge the ignorant could only hope for…it was empty. I heard there was a monster in here, or at least that's what I heard mother say from the other side of the door. I wonder where this monster is? Sitting here without purpose, without emotion, without…but for some reason I felt different. There was a reason, it was to find the truth. Why am I stuck here? Why can't I get out? Why does no one love me? Why…why am I alone?

My older brother burst into the library. My eyes shined bright, shaking intensely—for this was the first time I had ever seen his face. My bro- "Hey do you wanna play outside?" I opened my mouth into a smi- "Why are you just staring at me like that? Smile or something you're creeping me out." "Woa…Ka…La…" I said with a bright smile. "What the hell are you saying?! Wow I guess father was right, you are a weirdo." He turned his back to me and…he…what did he say?...he said…he…FUCK WHAT THE HELL DID HE SAY?! "You're definitely not my brother." Suddenly the door shut as a river flowed from my eyes. My brain couldn't even process the pure wrath coming from my heart. 

I'm…I'm not your brother? Why would you say that? WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT TO ME?! YOU HAVEN'T SPOKEN TO ME IN YEARS AND THAT IS WHAT YOU SAY TO ME? I launched myself at him and lightly squeezed his throat. Why? "I'm your brother right?" Why? "Right?" Why? "YOU WANT TO SPEND TIME WITH ME RIGHT!" Why? "TELL ME, I'M YOUR BROTHER!" WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY? Until there was a snap, and I looked down to see him lying on the ground motionless. I got up and pulled a book from the shelf and returned to my desk…"Who…am I?"

My reading was interrupted by the sobs of my parents, and for the first time in my life…I was let out of the library. They let me out. I was so overjoyed. We went to my brother's funeral and I couldn't help but smi- "He's happy in heav- Don't lie to me. There is no afterlife, it's only nothingness.
