Almost at the end of lunch Kerry notice Sol hasn't eating much, if any, so asked
"Hay Jackson this is fantastic!
But you bearly eaten anything,
what's wrong."
Sol only defines is anger, so yelling back
"GO FUCK YOU SELF!"
Kerry shrinking away, let's out a small
"Sorry Jackson"
Sol sighing, rubbing his temple saying
"Dont, just, uh sorry Kerry.
I don't eat it's, I don't know. Food wasn't mother top priority, I now I can eat an apple a week and do hero training"
Shrugging and continues
"Bad habbits"
So many students at once jump in say 'thant not right' 'You need to eat'
'That's not healthy'
Keller interjects, hair flying up
"Enough"
Turning to Sol and asking
"What's you weight?"
Sol replies
"44kg"
Gasps are all that's heard, Keller pays no mind and counters
"We should go to the other room"
Sol shakes is head 'no', so Keller counters
"This is what we're going to do, you will not be doing any exercise. When your weight builds up then yes. For now I wont you to get to 50kg, ok Sol."
Sol's replies
"No, you to soft, it's how I get people to fuck off"
Keller node's and counters firmly
"Fine, you will site and graz all day, like a over priced sheep. When you get to 50kg you can star mild exercise, yoga or some shit. Then when you reach 60kg you can start jogging and that sort. At 70kg you can start combat with me. If you still wont to be in Jenk's, you will not enter with a weight under 75kg. I don't care what job you won't, but if your wight ever drops below 70kg for any reason other then a comer, I will tie you to a chair, put a hose down you throat and feed you myself! Better trouble?"
Sol chuckles and replies
"Fine papa, I'm full tho"
Keller reassure him with
"It's not a over night fix, that's why I said 'graz', just ask us, we can make you something ok?"
Jackson node's, after lunch everyone's in the lounge room, no one wonts to leave Jackson, and Sol's enjoying the company.
Sol decided he was ready to ask about the missing letters from the box.
"Hay idiots, what the fuck did you do with the letters?"
A awked silence comes over the room,
Sol continues
"I'm not mad just curious"
With that everyone looks to Monroe,
he starts talking
"While you were outside, we got them. But we didn't open them. We're worried that's all, we thought you would um still..."
Davi Trailing off, Coco jumped in
"Wouldn't Kill yourself without the letters"
Jackson chuckles
"There not a blade, you can read them,
or I could "
Shrugging and continues
"I could anwaers some questions, maybe, probably."
Keller steps in
"Sol don't push yourself"
Sol wave a hand asking softly
"Are you leaving, or Dad?"
Keller quick to reply
"God no trouble!, we're like blood stains, we don't budg easily."
Sol smirks saying
"Then I wont to try"
Turning his attention back to the idiots saying
"So what you won't idiots"
Roma raised a hand
"Why"
Jackson snots
"To broad, next!"
Roma whines, Monroe steps in next
"He died, was she.."
Davi trailing off, Sol answered tho
"Yeh nerd, she never wonted me. So no surprise. But killing Da, there was nothing left after that."
Coco and Kerry confused asking at the same time ask
"Wait! what?"
Sol sigh
"I was 7, we went out for dinner. There was a villain attack, he was disintegrating a building next to us. Da new there were no hero yet, ran in. I followed suit, we save them all. But I heard something and went back in, only for the villain to grab me. Da gave himself to the villain for me. Building came down on him, killing him."
Davi jumped in
"It was never Sol's fault, never."
Sol takes a deep breath only saying
"Monny"
And lifting his shirt revealing the upper rib tattoo, yes a little bonny, but readabal. Something his Da would say, Sol's tattoo
'Doubt thou the stars are fire;
Doubt the sun doth move;
Doubt truth to be lie;
But never doubt I love'
Shaksper, With zodiac stars on his chest.
Davi let's a tear roll down his face saying
"It's beautiful Sol, he was beautiful. "
Lucas talking next
"This is the job Jackson, no offence, but we all are going to go into dangerous situations, never know if we're going home"
Sol node's saying
"Thanks, no more, let's move on"
Roma asking again, but better
"Why do you cut, I know depression can. But..."
Jackson sighed turns to Keller asking
"Can I have a smoke?"
Keller rubbing his temple saying
"If your resorting to smoking, shouldn't we stop?"
Sol wave a hand and sihys,
Cooper counters, pulling out a fidget toy
"Maybe you hands need to be busy?"
Kneeling and handling it to Sol saying
"But little J we can stop, any time."
Sol node's and continues
"Mom didn't won't me, she wanted Da, or Da money and portion, but when Da died she was never the same."
Taking a deep breath and playing with his toy for a moment continues
"After, she would yell, tell me Da death was my fault, I was already guilty. Then she started hitting me."
Sol looks at Keller asking
"I'm not sure I should go further"
Keller doesn't have a chance to reply,
when the class interjects with
'Keep going' 'don't hold back'
'Please tell us'
So Sol continued
"She would chain and beat me, all lessons because I'm week.
The cutting is just pain I need, to be better, to repent, to release.
To stop thinking things could ever be better for me a long time ago"
Gasps and crying are all that's heard for the next few minutes, everyone need a moment to collect themselves after the raw confection and knowing there's more to come.
