"Yeah, I knew that toast thing was stupid." Daniel said quietly but still loud enough for Weisse to hear. Daniel laughed at himself. "But, Yeah I understand dude. talk about it when ever you're ready." Daniel gave a smile and looked around the room before starting his tale. "Well, my mother and father worked all the time and instead of hiring a baby sitter they would drop me off at my grandpa's house. I never knew my grandma, she died before I was born, but my grandpa always told me she was an amazing person and really knew how to make people happy. But, anyway!" Daniel said loudly getting back onto topic.
"So, I spend about 350 days out of the year just at my grandpa's. I was never mad at my parents, I understood working was very important and I was happy they did it all for me." Daniel smiled. "I was an only child, all my life. But, when I was six my parents tried to have another kid. It was going to be a little girl. the thought of having a little sister made me so happy. The thought of her, Grandpa and I going fishing made me so happy. But, when she came out she was already dead. It tore my mother apart. She quit her job and stayed home." Daniel let a tear roll down his cheek before wiping it away and continuing.
"I still wasn't aloud over there so I still spent all my time with my grandpa. And, my favorite memory is when I was eight. I got my Katana. Getting that for my birthday was amazing. My grandpa always told me not to touch it, but I was always fascinated with it. Opening a box and seeing that in it was just shocking. I started crying when I knew what was in the box." Daniel laughed at the memory of him as a little kid crying and screaming when he got the sword. "I couldn't stop hugging my grandpa. I didn't even open my other gifts until like 4 hours later. I was to busy letting my Grandpa teach me how to use the sword. After I got it I carried it everywhere, fishing, to school, to the bath room, to church, girl's houses and any where else you could think of. I fell asleep every night, until I was about 13, with that sword." Daniel laughed some more. He loved the happy times in his life. They were always so cute and joyful.
"Now for the so called "sad part"." Daniel said rolling his eyes and making air quotations. "At the age of ten my parents ran away. They didn't say good bye to me or anything. Just one day they didn't call or come pick me up on their scheduled day. Grandpa checked their house and they were gone. The only thing left was my room, it had everything left in it. Honestly, I didn't care and don't care now that they are gone. They were never really there. I of course miss them, all the time. But, my grandpa has always been my father figure so I was already used to not having my real parents around. Sometimes I sit and wonder where they are now and if they have had another kid." Daniel looked at Weisse, "Nothing else really happened up until now. Now at the age of 16 I am enrolled in Shi Bendo academy. I really only came because they allowed me to carry my Katana around." Daniel laughed and looked at the sword on the wall, "Isn't that right little buddy?" Daniel laughed a it more and then said. "Sorry if I talk to much or bored you to death Weisse."
