The dried leaves scattered as the gust of wind rustled through; noises that could only be heard by those who could hear loudness from silence.
Montagueax is a prestigious school in Malfuego where all the sons and daughters of filthy rich tycoons all over the world study. It is a magnificent place where every room is a luxury. Expensive decor covered in posh fabric and rare crystals intricately embedded on the surface dangle from the ceiling. The famous Putri Patecilli paintings covered the vast walls which were bolstered by majestic Corinthian columns.
Joan stood silently looking all over the place with wonder and amazement in her eyes, relishing every moment hearing those playing violins all over the place and seeing such majestic and sophisticated possessions. But Joan Brooks is not rich nor famous but only a yielded grace from her own learnings, to enter such outstanding school.
Youn Joan Brooks is a deaf and for that reason she was insulted. Listening to neither songs nor voices was once tolerated as nonsense, for her ears are deaf
Thus, one morning, as she was waiting for the flag ceremony to occur, teens like her are beginning to fill the area. Hearing the sound of the water, from a fountain sprouting out, water glided at every curve and shape, it was never a bore.
It was a beauty in golden hair that bumped her. From the blond a glittering wallet dropped. Intending to return it, Joan picked it up.
"That's my wallet! You thief!" the blond girl shouted.
Heads started turning to their direction. At her face and to the wallet she's holding, every student glared.
"I was going to return it, you-"
"No! Thief!" And to the crowd she was pushed. A girl from the back holding a lemonade was accidentally hit, and made the entire lemonade slipped all of a sudden.
"Oh my God! Gosh! Oh... you!" Kicked and pushed, Joan found herself at the floor as others began kicking her too.
"Thief!"
"Thief!"
"Thief!"
Covering her head, but the hearing aid was nowhere to be found. Anger started rising, hurt started racing, not by the kicks nor the words they spilled, but the nature of humans. It was a cruel world.
"There's Jack and his group," Behind Joan, a guy hissed.
