"Mom, I want that doll, MOOOM," The kid said while throwing a tantrum at the amusement park entrance. A lot of people are staring at them, but the child is still sitting on the ground.His mother looks embarrassed and a little ashamed based on the looks on her face.
His little sister that his mother's carrying also starting to cry.
I can see that he wants something that he can't have.
"I told you honey, We'll buy something just like that when we got to the mall," The mother said while pulling the kid to stand up.
"I don't like something like it, I want that doll now," He answered and started rolling on the sidewalk.
Some passersby walking and avoiding the little child.
"Tskk," I said to myself while sitting on the other side of the road eating the piece of bread that will serve as my lunch and dinner that I bought with the money I earned by picking up used bottles and selling it the junkyard for a small amount of money.
This is the life I woke up with, ever since I opened my eyes to the unfair judgment of this world.
I didn't get the chance to choose what life I wanted to have.
My parents left me, and my younger brother alone in a world full of scary people and contingency at a very young age.
But I'm all alone now, because my brother got adopted, and I can't do anything about it with the position I have now.
So, seeing this kind of scenario makes me angry.
Those children, wanting everything even though they have what they need.
They keep wanting more,
and more to satisfy themselves.
They are selfish beings who only think what they wanted, without realizing how fortunate they can be.
I finished the last bite of my bread and drank some water from my half-full bottle that I picked from the bench outside the park that a furious lady left earlier.
I glanced on the other side of the road once again, and the child is already on foot holding a big spiderman doll and his mother thanking a lady in a cat costume.
I shook my head.
" They shouldn't give it to him," I said myself and stand up.
I started walking away and heads to the parking lot because it's the place where most of the people throw their trash.
Which I consider my treasure that keeping me alive every day.
I was picking some bottles from the trash bins when a woman appears in front and hands me a plastic bottle.
I took it.
"Thank you," I said and continue what I'm doing on the other bins while she's following me.
It's the lady in a cat costume.
"I stopped what I'm doing and face her She's sipping some juice on the plastic cup in her hand.
"Excuse me lady, but why are you following me?" I asked, and she smiles widely.
Is she crazy? I ask myself
"I'm not," She said and shrugs her shoulder.
"Okay," I said and starts walking again, and she's still following me,
