There once was a boy named Greg. He lived with his
single mom, Margot, in a two bedroom apartment. In his
room he had posters of his favorite stars, a race car
bed, and a bunch of toys. This is normal for a five year
old boy, but for a guy in his thirties, it’s just plain
weird. He never has lived on his own. His mom treated
him like he was five years old. She even made his
bedtime eight o’ clock, (which didn’t matter because he
had only five friends).
He went to college to be an engineer, but ended up
quitting because it was too hard. He works for his uncle
in a restaurant as a janitor making $8.00 an hour. He
spends his day cleaning up after people. He hates his
job, but is afraid to try to get a new job.
One day Margot met a guy, named Fred. They went on a
couple dates before deciding to get married. Margot and
Fred got married one month later. Margot moved into
Fred’s three bedroom penthouse, leaving Greg her
apartment. A thirty year old man should be happy to have
a new apartment. But Greg wasn’t. He was scared to be
all alone, and sad that his mother had left him. His
friend Joe decided to cheer him up. Joe called him up to
see if Greg wanted to hang out. After about a half an
hour of begging, Greg decided to go out. Joe took Greg
to a place he had never been to, a bar Joe ordered two
beers, which Greg refused to
drink. Joe asked if there was anything else he wanted.
Greg mentioned that he had never had alcohol before.
“NEVER HAD ALCOHOL?” Asked Joe. Joe was shocked. When
Joe asked why, Greg answered “My mom would never let me.”
Joe told Greg that he is a thirty year old
man. His mother can’t control his life anymore. So Joe
decided to show Greg how to be independent. So the two
men headed over to Greg’s house and the first thing they
did was redecorate. Greg and Joe took down all his mom’s
paintings and put up some posters. Then they went out
and bought a big screen TV and a PS3. That night Greg
threw a party and invited all the building residents.
After the party he had a ton of friends. So Greg went
out to buy his first cell phone. He got the Sidekick 4
with Internet, text, and aim. Greg quitted his job as a
janitor, and went to an interview for as a business
manger position. The guy decided to give Greg a chance.
Greg started working the next week and ended up doing a
great job. He now makes $15.00 an hour for just sitting
around and doing nothing. While at work, Greg meets a
girl named Veronica. The two of them talk for a while.
After their talk Greg asks
Veronica out and she accepts. Greg takes her to a fancy
restaurant. They talk for a while and then switched
numbers. After a while of seeing each other, they became
boyfriend-girlfriend. The months turned into years, and
things were getting serious. Two years later Greg popped
the question. The two love birds got married that next
June. The newly weds got a big house with a huge yard.
Greg’s mom was so happy that his son had finally grown
up. Greg and his wife lived a happy life with many kids.
