CHAPTER ONE
Two Lefts Don't Make A Right

[/color]

Hello my dears and sirs. Aiden Xavier Gizmo is my full name. It's hard for me to say things never spoken so give me time to let me choose my words. Sometimes it's hard to breath and no in the medical sense. Knowing on how you "came to be" is just something no one really likes thinking about. Well, I was forced to think.

My mother was the kindest woman I've ever known. She was just so happy all the time and cheered me up when I was sad or angry. How could something so terrible happen to her? Karma? Of course not! Dawn Gizmo was her name. Beautiful, right? Well for my existence to have happened something...bad happened to her. To put it into kosher words, I was here by her choice.

No don't get me wrong, she loved me. But I mean, they way I came to be wasn't exactly her plan. Do you catch my drift? Good. She was wonderful mother, the ones that seemed to be able to everything...what can I say? I'm a "mama's boy". Yeah.

I've never known my father, and somehow I'm glad and upset about it. I could never forgive him but would really like to know a bit of my "history". Now if you've been paying attention, I've obviously taken my mother's last name. "Gizmo". I would never carry on something as dreadful as that man's last name...even if I did know.

Childhood was hard without a father but my mother eased the pain with her kisses and hugs. She made me...a happy kid instead of an emo. I'd like to say that I've been a peppy guy. She made me like that which I'm thankful for.

If you think that's the end, your far from right. Let's take a left, hmm? Sunshine and butterflies isn't what makes up my life. Now grab on something to brace yourself because it's a bumpy ride.[/center]
