It rained so hard that day, since morning. Even the universe seemed to join Nat in his misery. 

'Please don't do this to her' Nat said with tears generously flooding on his face 

'Pa, I beg you, please don't let them to this to Ma...' Nat gets on his knees wrapping his hand around his father's leg. 

People look at him with disgusted expression. The man shoves him from his leg, and kicks him hard until he falls and his back hits the table.

'How will you save her?'

'You have the money to cover all of her expenses? She is brain dead, you won't even have the money buy the space for his burial!' 

One woman said with her hands wrapped in front of her chest. 

'I will find the money' 

'I will find it' 

Nat crawling towards the woman and puts his face on her foot while whipping painfully. 

'Please let me take care my mother, madam, p-please' 

'I won't bother any of you, please' Nat continues to sob  

'Get your filthy hands of me!' the woman pushed Nat's shoulder with her feet which makes Nat stumbled back, again. 

The people turns their head to the door when they heard some knocking from outside, a person dressed like a doctor enters the room. 

'Have you decided?' he asked

'How much will we get?' the man said 

'Pa!' Nat shouts and stands up to walk to his father but two guys holding his hands. 

'You can't do this to her!'  

'You have no right!' 

'We can give you 3 million for her liver, kidney, eyes, lungs, and heart' the man said 

'what!?' the man  shouts

'That cheap?' 

'She is not young anymore, she is 45, her organs no longer in their prime'

'Take it or leave it!' 

'4 million' he tried to bargain

'three twenty five, my last offer' he said 

'fine' 

'Pa, you can't do that, you can't do that to her, not without my permission!' 

Nat shouts and screams and cries, but no body cares. They took him away from that hospital, locked him in a warehouse for days, without foods or drinks, or lights. He cried until the tiredness forced him to sleep, he woke up and cried again, then sleep again, it's being repeated over and over again, just like the never ending vicious cycle.

'Hi Nat, you're early today' one of the workers greet Nat

'You have the noon shift, right?' 

Nat smiles at the much older guy 

'They said they need more people this morning Phi' 

'Ah, ok' 

It's been six years, six years since his life has been taken away from him. This Nat, is someone who is alive but not living. He has no soul in him, he continues his life, day by day just to wait until he stop living. He has no purpose in life, really, but it doesn't stop him from being the naturally kind human being as he is. People around him always see him as a hardworking person, full of kindness, never show any emotions, let alone anger.
