The world. A lot different than he thought

This my first time doing a solo story two parts this is part 1

This I say we know a lot about nothing and we continue to believe whatever we hear and read about everything. Instead of living in the real world

This is where this story begins

A man who spends most of his time listening to music and news stays in his afraid to go outside because of what he hears.Never leaving the safe place of his house figuring that he could not be hurt if he did not leave the house.

One he reads the hew and see a home invasion and buys a gum online to defend himself . He doesn’t even know how to load or use this weapon so he reads the instructions and teaches himself .

Now he feels safe again but then he reads about a family who had weapons and still was robbed and hurt. So he goes back to reading again and finds an article about a safe room made out of the latest metal walls and all the bells and whistles

So he had this installed and the company that installed the new room explains to him the safety features and how they work. Now He knows he is safe and he is happier than he has been in a long time. He watches the news and sees all the bad things going on and still he doesn’t worry

One night he gets a knock on his door he looks through the door and sees his neighbor. He asks what they want and they tell him about robbers in their house and asked to use the phone. The he man has never truly met the neighbor only knows what they look like

He thinks about and says that he will call the police for them . The neighbor states they are scared and wants to come in he says no but he will call th police and watch on camera.

The police are not coming fast and the robbers are coming for her . The man is having trouble breathing because he doesn’t know what to do.He hasn’t had any one in his house in years and he’s scared but the neighbor is young and he doesn’t want them to be hurt He struggles within himself on what to do.

In all his reading he almost forgot the most important one The Holy Bible and the Ten Commandments Love thy neighbor .At that moment he was taken by his heart and quickly opened his door and pulled her in and closed the door.

This is the first time in 15 years that he has had contact with anyone from the outside. He doesn’t know what to say or do at this moment except to continue to look at the outside camera at the men coming towards his house. He goes and pushes a few buttons and the metallic shells come down over the windows and the door locks and a bar comes down.

He says that they won’t come in here and if they do they won’t be able to get to us . He turns around and looks at the young woman,who is shaking and crying and says please,please clam down they can’t hurt you.
He walks in her direction and she backs away,he looks at her but kept walking right around her towards the newly installed safe room and opened the door.

He turned on the light and then turned to her and said see this is a very safe place no one can get in. She says ,still shaking ,I’m just scared of everything and I don’t know you and I’ve live next to you for 10 years. Ah he said so he sat and watched her for a moment and began to tell his story…….. part 2 soon
