Orphan (eBook)

Omar Duncan is a product development specialist who is plagued by his past through vivid daydreams, which keeps him alienate from his peers and detached from reality. His story traces key experiences from adolescence to adulthood as he revisits, in vivid detail, three of them that were most impactful. Because he has allowed years of bitterness and disappointment to drive him, he has conveniently avoided blaming himself for his misfortunes. His reckless approach to the relationships that should matter most causes his conscience to vacate his body, and shows itself in the form of a vapor. It is desperate for Omar to try and reconcile his troubled past as being necessary for them to become reunited. The vapor shows itself several times, but its appearance changes dramatically in proportion to shifts in Omar's own attitude, as it teaches him the value of treating his relationships with more care. One incident in particular becomes the culmination of the emotional toll from his past experiences, which has led him down a self-destructive path. It also lets him see there are always consequences for his behavior--good or bad; but in Omar's case it is behavior that happens to create a dangerous encounter with someone he's least likely to suspect, but an encounter that ends with surprising revelations.
