At the top of the stairs lay a silent hallway, engulfed in darkness.

Livio touched the wooden door and gave it a soft push. The door opened without any noise, revealing a dark room .

Livio slowly leans on his bed looking towards the dark ceiling.
"Why?why, damn it! Why me ? All my friends cracked the tests, I am the only failure."
Livio covered his face with the pillow.

"My parents sacrificed everything! Why was I even born?"
Livio thought that while hitting his bed with his fist.

Present:

" Why didn't my mom take that abortion pill? "
From his bed, Livio pounds his mattress in frustration.

" I am nothing but a burden, a freeloader to them."

" It would be better if I simply disappeared from this world ."

Livio buried his face in the pillow while the tears were shining like diamonds .
"Why was  I chosen ?from millions of options: a celebrity, a scientist, and a doctor etc... a worthless piece of shit like me! "
Livio clinched his fists, so hard that he started bleeding.

In the pin drop silence Livio's phone started to buzz, Livio's face turned pale when he saw her mother's name on it.
