I hesitantly took the note and opened it with my shivering hands. It read -

"The more number of stomachs, the harder it is to satisfy hunger. I have already put you through a lot of hardships in such a tender age when all you should have seen was happiness and smile. I don't know if you would ever forgive me for this but at the moment this seemed to me the most plausible decision. I know you are strong and will do something really great with your life. Now there is nothing stopping you, my daughter. Stay strong and please forgive me. I will always be there for you

-Love, Mom"

"no.." I whispered under my breath, "nO MOM!"
I didn't want to believe what the letter would probably mean. I threw away the note and began looking for her while calling her out loud.
434Please respect copyright.PENANA2AzOR5eEpX
"MOM! WHERE ARE YOU! STOP SCARING ME!" I kept screaming and looking for her. I was all over the place.
434Please respect copyright.PENANA3VV9eKVP3S
I went inside the bathroom. She was there. Her wrist was slashed, blood all over the floor, white foam coming out of her mouth.
434Please respect copyright.PENANAW0G0u8AkhH
I dropped to my knees.
434Please respect copyright.PENANA7mj6tlPvnD
" I would have never wanted to see you like this, mom. We would have done something, together. Did I complain about not having enough food? Did I ask you to get me something you couldn't afford? All I wanted was you to be on my side. Everyone has turned their back on me and now even you left me. Why?" I was mumbling lifelessly.
434Please respect copyright.PENANA7O5CQMNSuB
That was it. That was the end. That was the time when I knew I had been forsaken for good, by everyone.
434Please respect copyright.PENANAVBs5Q8bXT0
"WHYYYYYYY...!!" I let out a loud scream before bursting into tears.
434Please respect copyright.PENANAqAUex0KNLn
"I don't even have money for your funeral, mom"

Two days later, I finally mustered up the courage to head back to the place which still had some hopes left in me, my school. Yes, that place did torture me, every soul there did curse me, all of them did make me feel more and more disgusted about myself, my life, but still that was the only place to which I could have looked forward to, the only place which had induced some kind of hope that maybe, maybe I could still do something with this cursed life.

I was walking with my heavy feet when I felt a sudden thump on my back which had me falling on the ground bruising my knees.
434Please respect copyright.PENANALJNq54sTzz
A hand violently grabbed me by my cheeks, digging the nails deep making me shut my eyes in pain. I couldn't see the face.
434Please respect copyright.PENANAVnTF9YsVEy
"Look at you. What a misery. Tch tch Tch" the voice sounded familiar but I couldn't recognize who was it.
434Please respect copyright.PENANAyxw2etKf11
"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING" I felt the hand being pulled off from my face.
434Please respect copyright.PENANAgYQcZWpq2Q
I finally managed to open my eyes and saw Hoseok walking away with that guy.

-HOSEOK'S POV-
434Please respect copyright.PENANATY8W808LK4
I don't know why I am friends with these people.
434Please respect copyright.PENANAhJ9urbOmgF
"What the fuck is wrong with you Hoseok" he yelled at me for "interrupting" him.
434Please respect copyright.PENANADSJfHCkZkn
"What's wrong with you people, why can you not leave her alone for once!"
434Please respect copyright.PENANAgK8EBupBuJ
"Oh look at our hobi boy being all goodie-goodie. Caring for her doesn't do you any good for all one would care" he said in a sharp tone "if you think you are doing a great job then just learn this now and knot this forever, her presence won't do any good to you, she is a curse"
434Please respect copyright.PENANAXd48BddS2l
He kept talking but I was lost thinking about the sight I witnessed yesterday.
434Please respect copyright.PENANAYtKsFDWZIs
I was at the cemetery when I saw Father Hong conducting a funeral. There was no one else but just one girl, standing there, crying. For some reason the curiosity inside me asked me to get a little closer, so I did and I was definitely not pleased at the sight but surprised. It was her. Whose funeral was it and why no one else was there?
434Please respect copyright.PENANAWj3xazIFbD
I didn't want to come in her sight so I waited at a distance for her to leave. It doesn't matter how badly I wanted to be there for her, I had to have patience. She is not the kind of girl who would accept sympathy that easily plus I would have only worsened things between us.
434Please respect copyright.PENANAGe7W6o7pJZ
After she left I approached Father Hong, he was familiar with me as I used to visit church often. I asked why she was alone and whose funeral it was.
434Please respect copyright.PENANAbYDdfxkxHd
"It was her mother's. She approached me today and told me the story of how her mother had to take her own life. She didn't even have anyone to carry her mom's body till here. I really pity that child."
434Please respect copyright.PENANAsQbXhTsRMr
His words made my heart sink. Her mother was the only one who she had and now when her mother is no longer there, she doesn't even have a shoulder to cry on.

-AeCha's POV-
434Please respect copyright.PENANAaCUcLaNJYd
I was as defunct as I could ever be. I don't even know why I am even breathing but they say life and death is not in our hands. The world is so perished and meaningless to me right now that I could be least bothered about anything that happens to me right now.
434Please respect copyright.PENANAWaFQbFBmrt
Everyday is the same story, the same effing and blinding by everyone, the same scornful vibes from the teachers but okay, perhaps there is still something for me left out there, mayhap there is still some purpose left in my existence, may be god has something left for me in his treasury of good times, maybe.
434Please respect copyright.PENANAakG9VmmsrO
Driven with the train of thoughts I was so lost that I didn't realise that I had reached school until I bumped into someone's chest.
