I just woke up and I immediately saw the light bright from the ceiling of the hospital, I roamed my eyes at the place and saw that everyone was busy. I noticed that an IV had been inserted into my hand.


A nurse approached me to check on me, "When it's all over, you can go home, the bills are already paid," she said.


"D-Didn't the one who made this to me wait?" She laid her hand on the table next to me and touched her waist before facing me.


"Do you think someone will be waiting for you in here? He said you are not a relative so he just paid your bills and left," she snatched something from her pocket and pulled my arm.


She handed me a white envelope. "Oh, that's it, and don't report it to the police, he said when he ran into you before leaving you here in the hospital," she left me already.


I opened the contents of the envelope and was exposed to small bills. Is this how much I value? My tears flowed spontaneously when I saw the scars on my body.


Are they worried about me, now?


Are they looking for me?


I slowly removed the needle attached to my hand and I would no longer consume the IV fluid, I came out immediately carrying the money I had received.


I can't even stand properly but no one has the strength to help me. I took my eyeglasses out of my pocket to see my way clearly.


Even though I was sauntering. I still had the courage to walk to the front of our school.


Today is our graduation.


Even though I wasn't standing straight I looked through the gate hole, I could see them in the court they were wearing our black gowns, they were smiling like there was no tomorrow, and their parents kissed their cheeks.


"Okay, for the highlight of the graduation, let's call on our summa cum laude. Mister. Yoon, Jeonghan!" my whole body trembled with annoyance and anger when his name was called.


The crowd is cheering for him. His friends and he, have their own medals in their hands. I lowered my hand as tears welled up in my eyes.


"To my beloved teachers, and Classmates I just wanted to say this," I backed away from where I was standing when I saw my dad smiling and clapping in front of him.


"From the start that I went to school, I always dreamed of being the best. So, I strived hard to be on top of the class but failed in what I dreamed. Despite that, I continue to strive hard for me to reach my goal and that is to be the TOP 1 in the class. I never lose hope, rather I was inspired to do better, and with that, I managed to be on top of the class,"


"Standing here in front of everybody, have this feeling of pride and happiness. Because I have proven to myself that I can be the best of what I am only if will strive hard and have a sense of determination and perseverance. I am also happy because all my efforts and sacrifices were well paid off. "
