the A side - Killer the Dropout

Life, Education

Killer's slow withdrawal from academics during the last half his (repeated) senior year of high school, leading to him dropping out all together - Kidd -15 in Reposed Rebellions

By the end of the week, Killer's still driving Kidd into town, but he sleeps in his truck though the first half of the day. By early March, he's dropping Kidd off a the school's door and not bothering with classes at all.
He officially drops out two months before the school year ends, and Kidd is pissed at him. "Wasn't going to graduate anyway, why bother?" He still drives Kidd to school every morning, drops him off at the school, before picking up a part time job in town to fill his day instead of classes. "I dun wanna work for Big Mam or Whitebeard or whoever for the rest of my life. I don't want to die in this shit hole with everyone else. I start saving now, and hell, maybe I can get out of here by the time you graduate."
Kidd walks to wherever Killer's working that day once the last bell rings, and most days Killer lets him drive them back, catching some sleep before they get home and Killer's out helping his old man with some job or another for which ever of the Big Four.
