11 ¡EXCITED!

THUMP THUMP, BA BOOM, BA BUMP, THUMP THUMP, BA BOOM, BA BUMP, BA BOOM, BA BUMP

THUMP THUMP, BA BOOM, BA BOOM, BA BUMP THUMP THUMP, BA BOOM, BA BUMP

<HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....> I started laughing like a maniac, but I couldn't control it, I knew what it meant, my heart had responded to me and I couldn't be content to understand it.

I WAS EXCITED, A PART OF ME WAS EXCITED!!! for what was going to happen, how much I could change, how high I would go, when I understood that emotion, those doubts and fears that filled my head, almost seemed like an illusion.

When have I ever felt so alive? Why am I afraid of the future? there are worse things than death, I thought I remembered that hateful hospital room, my useless sick body, the painful gasps for air, the faces of the people who looked at me with pity, but also grateful in the depths of their eyes, that even though their lives may be shit, there is someone worse than them.... when I remembered all that, I understood it completely.

I don't have to be desperate, or be afraid of the future, NO, I know, what is worse than trying and failing, would be to live an empty life, I'd rather die young living with my heart beating so hard it feels like it wants to escape from my chest almost hurting me, with a sweet pain that makes you realize what it's really like, TO BE ALIVE, savoring every emotion.

Than to live as my former SELF or going with the flow of society as an empty shell, with nothing to excite you enough to make your heart thrill with you, with nothing to make you cry with happiness, or scream with anger, just a slow, repetitive, boring, normal life. Like a cow on a modern farm while being drugged and having its soul sucked out of it.

When I understood all this what my heart had relayed to me, I looked up at the sky again, and could only smile.

Just wait, Smasher, V, Johnny, Arasaka, Faraday, Night City, whatever is behind the Blackwall.

I DON'T CARE WHO THE FUCK YOU ARE.

I WILL LIVE.

YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO STOP ME.

IF I HAVE TO KILL, I WILL KILL,

IF I HAVE TO STOP BEING HUMAN TO LIVE FREE AND PROTECT MY LOVED ONES, THAT'S WHAT I WILL DO.

YOU WILL NOT TAKE AWAY MY SMILE.

-------I AM SORA LINDER!-------

------------- AND-------------

I don't know who YOU are, I don't give a fuck, I will rise so high, no one will be able to touch me.

After I finished going a little crazy in my head, I felt my whole body itch like I had a little electric current running through my body...I didn't know my body could also get thrilled with me...I had no memory of something like this happening my old body, but it's bad example to go compared because...it sucked and I only got pain out of it, but this tingling feeling I have is the first time I've ever felt it in my life...I LIKE IT!

When I stopped concentrating on me and looked around I was surprised by what I saw, it was as if the universe was rewarding me for my somewhat maniacal resolve, because I watched as two people I had seen before approached me while talking to each other.

A woman about 28-30 years old in a somewhat cheap women's suit, and a kid from.... how many were they? 3 years younger than me? Yes, he would have to be 11 now with his hair spiked forward while wearing a formal jacket and pants that looked a little weird on him like he was uncomfortable.

As they walked past me, I followed close behind listening to their conversation, while eating Onigiris, a few feet away from them. While the woman looked really angry with her son.

<Really son, did you have to behave like that at the academy interview?

<Mom, I haven't done anything wrong, the choom told me to be sincere when he asked why I wanted to enter the Arasaka academy, and I was when i say``I don't want to enter, I do it to make my mother happy'', I don't know why bother you, being sincere is a virtue mom you told me so, I'm just the way you told me to be.>

Hearing this I could imagine the mother's expression while.

<Pffhm>(restrained laughter) I restrained myself from laughing as much as I could, because of the boy's reply, I save it for Ojiisan, but something was heard making the woman turn to me with accumulated anger at what her son had said,I ate and shook my head to make it seem in a not very elaborate way that I was listening to the radio, that something had made me laugh.

The woman stared at me for a few seconds without swallowing my act, with serious reproachful eyes as if she was about to say something, but she turned, back to her son and said.

Shouted gloria Martinez to her son David Martinez.
