Freshman year of High school.

Eden or Michael was born in New York City where he grew up for the majority of his life. For most of his childhood he spent his time inside reading books and was taken to vast museums as a kid. He found them fascinating and grew fond of learning new subjects. As a kid he did extremely well in school having straight A's and constantly getting praise from his teachers and becoming a teacher's pet. At five years old he started playing the piano and became very familiar with the skill. Unfortunately, at eight years old his father died. he died in a taxi car accident where he was being driven home from a business trip. This was a struggle for them financially because his father was the main source of money and food. Michael and his mom were luckily able to find a new apartment to live in that was easier for them to afford, and his mother was able to find a well-paying office job. Michael's mother became worried for him. Not only for the death of her husband effecting him negatively, but him being effected by bullying at school. In school he did better than most kids, which caused him to be a victim of verbal and physical abuse from his classmates. Not only for him being a "know-it-all", but also him being small in size. His mother decided to take things into her own hands as the bullying and hsanxiety got worse. At teh end of fourth grade she unenrolled him into the current elementary school he was going into ans enrolled him into online school. She became obsessive over contolling him. He didnt want anything to happen to him. She became so worried that if she were to let him out of her sight he would end up like his father, and she would be left alone. Mikey was her everything. She started to fake to the doctors that he had differnt medical conditions. In order to make Michael think that he couldnt ever leave her she drowned him with perscriptions and medications to take. The only time that she would let him out of her sight was when he went to acting classes or mucical theater classes. He strted to place him into theater when he was nine. Theater became his new passion. When he was ten he was taking a lot of medications, and gradually people noticed. they thought it was strange how Michael seemed so healthy and shoed no sign of needing any medical assistnce apart from taking pills. the parents especially of teh kids taking teh classes started to try to pey attention to his medication needs.

A turtle named Mochi, but he had to give him away to his cousin because the school does not allow pets.
