I was playing yahtzee with the local elderly citizens in the church's gym. It was my turn to roll the die. I slowly took the small cube in my hand. Carefully rolling it between my fingers. Admiring each angle, each curve, how the light glinted off sparkling in beautiful ways. Ways I never knew to be possible. I stared at this object for what seemed like hours. Just then, it was like my whole life took a dramatic turn for the worse. I got up, clutching the die as hard as I could, and walked out the door. Still dazed, I went out to the car completly unaware of my surroundings as I sped out of the crowded parking lot. Not caring about anything, one thought on my mind, and that was just to get home. Tears clouded my vision as I pulled into the garage. I ran inside as fast as my aching legs would allow and sat at the table staring at my shaking hands, that were still cupped around that one object. I tried to steady myself as I carefully open my tightly clenched fist. I gasped aloud when I saw the mark that dice had left on my fragile skin. Tears were streaking down my face, blurring my vision. A thousand thoughts were flowing through my mind. There was only one thing I was sure of. I hated this die. I hated it more that I knew possible. What it had done to me, the pain it had caused me, It was unbareable to think about. More tears flooded my face. I knew I had to get rid of it. But how? I wondered. How do you get rid of something so horrid, so unspeakably terrible? This is where you come in. I dont know how I can do this. I dont know even if I can. Please. I need to get this out of my life. Get a fresh start, a new perspective on things. But I dont know how. If anyone has any idea. Any way to help me. Im begging you.
