Chapter 1: Unable to hear the sound of the waves

_ Hello! Welcome back, wish you a joyful reading time~

【The pitiful child】

∘₊✧──────✧₊∘

In an orphanage, the sounds of running and laughter of the children in their small home echoed every day throughout the spacious lawn. Children of all ages, they laugh and play the games they like, the sound of the wind rubbing against each other creates peaceful sounds.

This place is always filled with the joy and positivity of the orphans, they have known nothing about family love since childhood, but when they come here, they are loved and given warm hugs or comforting words when they cry because of the nightmares they dream.

They have been loved so much, many people say they are 'abandoned children of heaven' maybe they are called that because of their appearance and past...

This is a not too big orphanage but it owns a large land for the children to freely play, they can be the children born with deformities that many people hate, they all gather here, the children abandoned from childhood, the children suffering from serious diseases, the children losing their parents and having to become orphans, all are brought here to be cared for.

Under the corner of a large tree, a tree large enough to create a shade for the children to run into when they want to rest. There is a child with short black hair, the hair flowing as it moves the brush in his hand. He paints, a very beautiful and vivid landscape painting.

He is the second oldest child here, 12 years old, his eyes blurred looking at his almost completed painting. Clearly it's very noisy here but the child doesn't hear any sound, not even the sudden gentle wind swaying his hair, or the sound of running and laughing children. It's all like a muted video.

Who is it? his name is Huji, only Huji, he has no last name

...And he is a deaf child from small...

∘₊✧──────✧₊∘

It seems that due to being absorbed in his own painting or being deeply focused, Huji was startled when he felt a gentle tap on his shoulder, causing him to instinctively turn back

- Huji? Are you drawing again? - The boy spoke up, he was one of the children here, Huji looked at him with a puzzled expression. The boy suddenly realized and then smiled before starting to use body language to explain his meaning to Huji.

Huji looked for a moment before realizing, nodded slightly and turned back to his painting. The boy also said nothing and sat down next to Huji. Huji was focused on his painting again, while the child sitting next to him just admired his friend's drawing without intending to interrupt Huji's work.

Every day is the same, that child always goes to find Huji when he has time, he will not bother it doing the work it likes. Just looking at Huji and sometimes a silly smile will bloom...

After completing his painting, Huji always has the habit of putting it in an old wooden box, which is the wood that a friend gave to Huji

Huji reached out to touch the wrinkled wooden surface of the box, his dark eyes sinking as the fragments of memories came rushing back like a storm...

∘₊✧──────✧₊∘

Huji was born into a very strict family, his parents always forced him a lot. His parents always scolded him, anytime, anywhere... just seeing Huji, they would scold without reason...

They will always whisper in Huji's ear about the issue of

- Why do you always get low grades? Why did the teacher teach you but the result you bring to me is 90/100?

- Huji! You made me extremely disappointed in you

- Huji!!! you want to lie down! I have to discipline you again!

- What the hell are you doing!? Huji! you are so useless

- I wish I had never been born a useless person like you

- Never disappoint me again...when you appear, you make me feel humiliated...

- Huji!

- Huji! You should die!

-Huji!

-You should disappear from my sight, just looking at you, I feel really nauseous

-Huji

That is Huji's past, it is also the reason why Huji lost his hearing completely. It was a time of being beaten, in anger Huji's mother accidentally pushed Huji down the stairs, Huji's head continuously hit the steps. Huji may become a 'vegetable' but God seemed to mock this pitiful fate by only making Huji unable to hear anything

And it seems that's why his parents have to hate Huji more, Huji was born because of their mistake, they didn't want to take responsibility for the child they gave birth to, just wanted to avoid the responsibility of being 'father and mother'

∘₊✧──────✧₊∘

Thinking about people who clearly gave birth to me but did not take responsibility for me, Huji's hands clenched tightly as Huji's lips smiled at each other. The pain is real, it's always like that... it's always afraid of everything around, even though it has been loved by many, it's still afraid, Huji has separated itself from everyone because Huji is afraid...

Huji is afraid of that...

Huji is afraid of everything around...

Afraid that one day everyone will leave

Afraid that everything is just a beautiful dream and when waking up from that pink dream, Huji will realize that everything is not like in the dream, and Huji's faith will be shattered

Huji is just a pitiful child, like an abandoned cat, ready to raise my claws in front of any contact, will be shaky in front of anyone but will show myself very strong...

That's how Huji is, it will create distance with everyone and then sink into its own thoughts...

Huji shook his head to dispel the thoughts around his head, put the painting into the wooden box and then placed it under the bed before going downstairs, where everyone had gathered to prepare for the  morning

-"Another dull day passes by... nothing new"
