Photo Of The Day: 26/06/2011 "The Invisible Boy"

It was very hard to be invisible. Unnoticed throughout the world. I could not help but feel extremely sad you did. He was dressed in neutral colors that stood out. In the photos he was always half covered by another partner. His grades were not good enough, and so disastrously wrong, so that teachers will pay attention. Half-step walking or fast or slowly, with head slightly tilted down. His eyes are not crossed with anyone. It might also suggest using colony that had been there. He wore jeans, and shoes like most sports. When classes ended, he left secretive and not missed her. It was part of the group, to the point of not attracting attention, but not enough, so that others would notice if I was still with them. The frustration was growing inside. Then he became angry. Against all against all. I hated him for not realizing it was there. But it was not able to do their part to prevent it. He could have tried to relate, make friends, play sports, join the theater group ... However, he took refuge in his invisibility, blaming its surroundings, breaking the rules.

At first, he tried shoplifting. The day we stole the portable stereo in the staff room, pulled it out in a plastic bag. Leaving the room, he passed the head of studies and even saw him. He watched the commotion from the corner of a hallway. Never found the culprit. Since then, put a safety lock with key, at the entrance of the main halls of the school. Those in which some material was stored value. The anti-theft measures only served to motivate you. One day, he bent down to tie his shoelaces, while one of the teachers introduced the key. 12342011, stupid. He had his damn password. New robbery followed the first. Just wanted to attract attention. In the other group of the same course, there was a girl he liked. It was nice, very pretty and was always surrounded by friends. The boys looked at her and she smiled her charms safe. Sometimes they passed through the halls, but she never saw him, of course. That morning, he decided to break his rule, the output class found the girl face, looked at him askance and said, "Hi, I'm in front of the class."

She looked at him curiously, up and down and said a brief "mmm." A friend took his arm and took her as she asked "Who is that?", "Will be new, not seen in my life," he replied casually. It was the most humiliating had happened a long time. He had gone to the same school from toddlers, just like her. They had eaten in the same room, out hiking in the same coach. Celebrated the end of year party, carnival, Christmas function, or even remembered. "It will again be new" pounding in his head again and again. Stupid thought. That afternoon after school, he came across an abandoned dog. She came, she sniffed pants and began to lick her hands. The feeling was very strange. A living being noticed he was paying attention, gave him love. He sat on the sidewalk and were playing for a while. He threw a stick and the animal ran after him and left him to his feet to start the game again. He gave his lunch, which the dog did not make any disgust and went home.

The next morning, leaving the portal, the first thing he did was seek to look at his new friend, nay, his only friend. There he was, waiting faithfully for the boy had given him a touch, another batch of games and perhaps a piece of sandwich. The days passed and the relationship was consolidated. Finally, he adopted and named "Shadow" proper name for the boy's dog invisible. They were inseparable. Upon reaching the vicinity of the school, meet her again. This time they looked at her and said nothing however, something extraordinary happened .- Hello handsome!, Said the girl gently moving her hand to muzzle-Shadow-Shadow Shadow is called, what a lovely name. Wait, you're the new guy right? the opposite class. My name is Moon Moon .- ... sounds good, I am Thomas said dissembling, of course I knew it was called Moon! .- Do you live around here? - Yes, two streets down in that direction, he replied by pointing with his hand .- Go! I live a little further, we can get to the exit and make the journey together, if you want .- Of course, I'll wait here on the five.

A barking correct him, well, we'll wait, ha ha ha .- Great!, We luego.La girl entered the school grounds, as he bent down to pet the dog. Wow, Shadow, has been that simple all the time?, Is it really that was just a try?. Wow, buf!, Said Shadow, giving him a lick that ran mejilla.A all times, we need something to happen to help us make the human being within. Sometimes, we feel useful, caring for someone. Perceiving that we occupy a bit of a heart. The animals kept instincts that humans long ago lost. A Shadow did not need words to understand that with a little push, Thomas open to the world. Moon only needed a greeting and a bark, to find Thomas. That day, thanks to Shadow and Luna, gone forever, the boy invisible.
