Xiao zhan laid down on his bed and burried his face on his pillow , he was sleepy but sleep was luxury which he couldn't afford right now.
He jerked up when he heard his phone ringing, xiao zhan didn't blink when he saw who was calling him this time ,it was her foster mother. He was happy to finally recieve her call after moving to dorm about 2 months ago.
"Hello, good evening aunt" he said in his low voice.
"Zhan, i heard from jiang cheng that you have exams starting next week"
"Mn"
"I hope you remember that how much disappointed we will be if you don’t score in top 3, your brother is always a top scorer in his department and same goes for your sister so do not disappoint us this time ,that's all."
Zhan phone beeped indicating that his foster mother disconnected the line, zhan didn't know when his eyes welled up with tears and he started crying and small sobs left his mouth. She never called him since he shifted here alone, no one from the family asked for his well being, no one asked if he was eating well or if he adjusted himself. For the first time when his aunt called he thought maybe she will ask about his well being but no it was again about their respect.
When he was in he prayed that when he gets adopted the family will be loving, no matter if they are poor but he wanted a loving family. But in this lifetime it's impossible for him to receive any love.
"Was i expecting too much? , can i ever get any love? Maybe i'm not made to love"
With these thoughts in his mind he unwillingly stood up from his bed and went to study.
It was 3:am when he started feeling sleepy and couldn't read more even when he wants to, he stood up set up an alarm of 5:am to continue his study and then retired to his bed.
This continued for a week and it was the day of exam, zhan thought no one will notice his sleepless face and eyes but unaware to him 2 pairs of eyes were very worried for him.
"Baby chick is he sick?"
"I don't know ge but he looks exhausted, i asked around and students living opposite his dorm room said that he sleeps with lights on in night, at first they thought he was awake but they never heard any sound so they think he might be sleeping with lights on"
"But why i think he isn't sleeping well?"
"I tried asking him ge but you know how he is right? he talk very less, i'm worried ge"
"Don't worry i will talk to him" He ruffled her hair and went outside
