  The flutter of a butterfly's wings is so dangerous that a single beat trigger signifit catastrophes miles away from its location. Now, when it fps its wings in the roots of time, what could have been a story is simply fotten. The hidden dangers behind the flight of a butterfly set off numerous uable events in nature. When our subject, Billy Carsen, decided to be born ten years ter due to a slight ge is, life was disrupted by a series of associations that were not initially sidered.

  The marriage between Thomas Carsen and Agustina López happened by ce, a decade of passionate love between a grumpy-looking Texas wyer and the warm, vibrant Argentine who traveled for a fotten Ameri dream buried in unpaid bills. This unioually led to beautiful memories and the birth of a son. Although different and simir in this life, destiny still wouldn't let Billy Carson enjoy both of his parents.

  In this life, he wouldn't have the guidance of a strict man, even for preparing breakfast. Instead, he would have a lively, joyful, loving, and permissive mother. This attitude brought a series of differeo the pnner Billy, one more ined to go with the flow, ging his mind from time to time, loving what he despised the day.

  Thomas Carsen died in a traffic act in 1990, and the stant shifts in life emerged. The once happy little family had to adapt to a ho lost her husband, with retly acquired citizenship through marriage and only basiglish to get by. With all the y of a woman, having relied on her husband, she ventured into the world to provide for the remaining family. The legal issues with the Carsen family resulted in serious problems, and the life insurance left by her husband was divided into three parts. The money from the medical insuraer the act and before the death was entirely spent on various expenses. Among the possessions was a small house in San Jose, whitered a legal process initiated by the Carsen family.

  The money for Carson's house was initially paid by Thomas's parents, and Thomas's mother demahe house's money, which was aued to fulfill the payment.

  Our distressed Argeher moved to Los Angeles in search of job opportunities after hearing about the better-paying full-time positions in upscale bars aaurants iy. Some young artists came a, w part-time in roles like waiters, parking attendants, and various trades. W in a bar could provide enough moo solve their financial problems. They sold the house, leaving them with a third of the money, a small truck, everything essential for them, photos, memories of moments of happiness packed away under dust.

  In two months, she rented a small apartment in San Fernando Valley close to her job in Santa Monica; there was only an hour's difference. She lived just above a sports store in a 50-square-meter apartment, and the 700 monthly rent was enough to cover bills and save some dolrs as a financial cushion to buy a small apartment. Billy grew up in a safe neighborhood, or better than many others. His mother worked from Monday to Wednesday at the sports store and from Thursday to Saturday in Santa Monica, a popur bar in the unity. Tips were good, and the financial situation improved as the years passed.

  The small building where they once lived was eventually demolished, and they lived in various houses for a while, but the rising prices caused financial imbahey moved to a building in North Hollywood, a two-bedroom apartment muarrower, where uy students were more prevalent. Nights were filled with loud rock music that disturbed the apparent tranquility a resident would need.

  Principio del formurio

  The artistic city differed entirely from the San Fernando Valley, with a slightly rger building, but 100 more expensive— an acceptable price. Their stant jobs in bars gave them experience, and life stabilized and even improved again.

  It was a glorious time in Los Angeles, and my thoughts turo purchasing a small pce to live. When the eic life problems were resolved, personal problems began to arise. Young Billy, at the age of 12, entered his rebellious phase. School fights, flicts with teachers, prades—everythi from bad to worse. The stant failures started to alter Billy's thoughts. He went out at night when his mother worked, skipped school, skateboarded through the city, and failed his first grade. At thirtee caught spray-painting walls, the police fronted him, and his mother, in total nervousness, was called to the police station.

  In a moment of anger, his mother sent him to "Twin Towers Correal Facility" after iigating why he wasn't in school. Billy skipped csses for five months. This se caused deep rese in Billy, who, at the age of thirteen, was sent to a correal facility. This Billy didn't follow the white and simple appearance of his father; he had a Latin and mischievous look, mixed with Texan.

  Our transmigrated protagonist woke up from a hazy dream on February 10, 2000, in a bed at the correal facility, alongside 10 other kids sharing a room, aged between 13 and 15. Most present were criminals and gang members.

  Although Billy was a troublemaker, he didn't pare to the youth sharing beds beside him. The chaos and Billy's feelings led to a certain tacit uanding of his unstable situation. Years of memories adjusted in his thoughts, and a call from the system, imagining being an artist and drawing acc to his is, but a surprising music system expined many situations that his life couldn't prehend.

  -To hell with the whole world, - murmured Billy Carsen, realizing the apparent situation.

  Uhe dark auspices of the night, he wasn't the young boy who woke up watg Steven Spielberg's E.T. movie with his wyer father. He was a young man with anger issues, numerous family problems, and a tired waitress mother carrying a heavy load on her shoulders. An absent father who couldn't uand the reasons behind his unfortunate predits.

  A music system, - he thought in his mind.

  Of all the activities he could have been part of, singing never crossed Billy Carson's mind.

  His singing level was that of a prodigy. Well, his talent for singing was that of a prodigy—meaning, with ten minutes of singing a day, he could improve his singing, quite short to practice his talent. That is, no matter what he does, he is destio be a music star, as the ting system demonstrate.

  In two years, I might be sidered one of the best singers, and in five, I be the best singer. In ten, I could be sidered a legend, even unleash a one-in-a-million artistic talent, - thought Billy Carson to himself.

  The early m was cold, thoughts keeping sleep at bay, and insomnia gave him dark circles the day. This body doesn't bear the wear and tear of years of poor sleep. Young Billy remembered his mother's sadness when she left him at the correal facility. He would be released in early June and would repeat eighth grade. In each possible sario he sidered, he found no solutions; all that was left was to wait to get out of this pce.

  Songs pyed oer another, like vivid memories. In some, he almost wao shout with joy, and in others, to cry. His mind was in turmoil.
