Description:: Michaël is the kind of guy that could have been one of the popular ones. He's good looking and he loves sports. He has beautiful blue eyes - the kind you can drown in - and his hair is almost black. If he smiles his face just lightens up and he sure loves to smile. He usually wears comfortable clothes but not mark clothes cause that's a waste of money and he wouldn't be able to afford it.

Personality:: Michaël is a real gentleman. He is always friendly and he mostly loves to smile. He tries to help as much as he can but if he notices they try to misuse that, he becomes very angry. However his youth was full of challenges he never became a bitter person towards others. Yet if he is on his own, he sometimes loses himself into worrying of things that might happen. He became a bit more sceptic about the world and has a bit troubles to trust people completely but that won't show till you know him a bit better.

Michaël loves all sorts of animals. His mood changes (positively) when he's around them and he loves listening to the birds in the woods or just taking pictures of animals. That's why he has bought a dog to join him in his new life.

History::
November 11th 1988: there was a lot of commotion in a little town at the border of Wisconsin. It was a small community where everyone knew everyone and nothing stayed a secret. The 18-year old Sally gave birth to her son. She named him Michaël, after his father. However, Michaël senior wasn't a good father. He took off when he found out that Sally was pregnant and left her with a child, a broken heart and no money. Though she didn't blame him. There were after all to young to raise a kid. However the problem stayed. Her child had no father and they had no money. On her parents she didn't had to count. For them she was dust eversince she got pregnant before marriage.

Since the day he was born Sally and Michaël were a team. As a team they could survive anything. They could save money by buying as little as possible, they could share dreams and try to make them real, they could play games and have fun together. Mother and son were very close and nothing could tear them apart. At least that's what they thought...

After she ran out of her savings Sally had to start working. To be able to pay all the bills and save enough for Michaël to go to school she had to work two jobs. That meant that she wasn't home a lot. She knew that Michaël might blame her for not being with him but there was no other way. While she was at work, Michaël was with the neighbours. Most of the time Sandra, the older lady, took care of him. She read him stories and learn him how to read himself even before he went to school. Together they had fun and Sandra became a bit of a grandmother to him.

Since he was just a small kid, he didn't understand why his mother had to go away so much. Yet it didn't hurt there relationship. The times they could be together were just dubble as much fun and Mike soon got used to have two people in his life. The only thing that he didn't understood was were his daddy was. No matter how many times Sandra tried to explain that his father left and would never come back, he couldn't believe it. He thought his father was on a long trip around the world and would come back sooner or later.

Then the time came for him to go to school. Michaël was a bit ahead thanks to Sandra's lessons and he sure could use it. He had troubles paying attention in class cause he was a bit of a dreamer. As soon as a topic didn't interess him he started dreaming. Most of the time he was dreaming about having a big house and living with his mom there and having a lot of money. But sometimes he fantasized about his dad. How he would look like, when he would come back, whether he would recognise him or how things would be when he was back. Still after a while thing improved and it became easier to keep being focussed during classes.

During pauzes on the other hand, it was a whole other story. He started telling stories around his father that were completely made up. That way he made a few friends and a lot of enemies. After a while people didn't believe him anymore and they left him on his own. That's how he spent most of elementairy school. Yet his grades didn't suffer under his loneliness and he started working really hard for school.

Then as he grew older, he stopped believing that his father would come back. For the first time he started to believe his mothers story and he started to hate his father. Michaël sr. became the man that abandened him and left him and his mother without money. The man without responsibility. His relationship with his mother didn't suffer under this new understanding. In fact he never thought of rebelling against her. She was one of the two persons he would never give a hard time cause he could trust her. The other was Sandra.

As years passed by and Michaël grew up to a beautifull boy, thing went better for the family. His mother didn't had to work as much anymore and Michaël had some friends at school with whom he hang out a bit. Still they didn't got to know him very well, there relation stayed very superficial. And however he was cute, he didn't had much girls hanging around him. He just didn't let them close enough. That way nobody could hurt him again, not like his father did...

Then the day came he graduated. It was a beautifull ceremony and a closure of a long chapter of his life. There was a big party to celebrate and then the moment came to tell his mom about his choise of college. He walked inside, to the kitchen where his mom was doing the dishes. She was crying and her clothes and her towel were all wet. Then she turned around with a serious look in her eyes and solemn she said: read the letter on the table then her voice died because of the held in tears.

Dear Sally,
I started writing a letter for a million times but I never had the nerves. The only reason I didn't was because I was to scared. And I still am. I have no right to upset you now after all those years. That's why this letter won't be sent to you unless something happens to me.

That's the first bit of the letter Michaël held in his hands. Then the paper fell on the ground. He had suddenly realised what it said. His father, the one that had never returned, the one that left him before he was even born, he was death. Michaël went over to his mother. She was about to fall apart and he helped her walk towards her bed. There she fell asleep while he read the rest of the letter.

At the end there was an interesting part.
Dear Michaël. I'm sure you asked yourself a million times why I didn't come to visit you. The answer is simple. I was scared. I didn't want to disturb your world for nothing and I couldn't hurt you even more then I already did. I'm sorry for everything. This letter comes with good and bad news. I'm death and we will never met. Yet your life will be a lot easier. I leave you with my money and all my other possessions. I hope you will use them better then I did. Good Luck and Take care of your mother. Your dad, Michaël.

That was the end. Now the grieving could begin. It took a year before he and his mom were over the lost of this man. Yet now they had a beautifull new house and Sandra had moved in to keep his mom companie while he left the house to start his own live. That life was a completely new start far away from everything. It was a life at Catalpa a college that worked around horses. His mom had sent in his application and now his new life was welcoming him.
