Third Person POV

"Tecchou, you can do much better than that."

The woman scolds, holding a piece of paper.

"Just wait until I show your father."

The boy looks up in fear.

"Wai-"

"QUIET."

He shuts his mouth, looking back down at the ground, not even daring to glance anywhere else.

"Go to your room. Now."

He nods, immediately running to his room.

The boy closes the door, sliding his back down it.

Sitting on the floor with his knees pulled up to his face.

Tears rolling down his cheeks.

"I tried my best..."

He mutters to himself.

"TECCHOU!"

A shout snaps the boy from his crying.

Immediately getting up and moving away from the door.

Oh no.

No no no...

He thinks to himself.

Suddenly the door slams open, knocking something off of the shelf next to it.

"WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?"

The man shouts holding the piece of paper.

"I-I'm sorry-"

"SHUT IT."

The boy does as such and immediately shuts his mouth.

"YOU GET HUNDREDS IN THIS HOUSE. NOTHING LESS."

I'm sorry...

Dad, I'm so sorry...

"ANSWER ME YOU LITTLE SHIT."

The boy looks up at his father.

"I'm sorry... I-I tried my best-"

"WELL YOU SHOULD'VE TRIED HARDER."

He shouts causing the young boy to flinch.

I don't wanna be here...

"YOU'RE GROUNDED, DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT COMING OUT OF THAT ROOM."

But what did I do wrong?...

The man slams the door as he storms out.

The boy jumping at the sudden loud noise.

He sits down on the floor beside his bed, pulling his knees up to his face.
