The boy who sat in silence (from the series Unnoticed.)

~Reality~

(Y.P.O.V)

(Recap: The uncomfortable awkwardness is broken by Hwangsae's response to my silence.
"So is it!?")

As if someone has muted me with a remote, no words come out of my mouth. All that comes out are streams of tears that escape my glassy soulful eyes from the repeated word in my head, orphan. Hwangsae and his gang laugh and insult my pain with even more hateful comments about my family and personal life. All I think is how? How do they know?

"Yah Baepsae! Do you want to know what else I heard?"

Hwangsae's chuckle after his statement forms a fire inside of my stomach and a spark in my fist, as I throw a punch at his face yelling at him to. "Piss off!!"

He falls helplessly on the ground yelping in pain.

Just as Im about to flee from the scene Hwangsae's gang pins me against the wall, they punch and kick me repeatedly, until Hwangsae regains enough strength to stand. He walks over towards me and slams me back into the wall giving another devilish smirk and deathly glare. He comes up close to my ear and whispers, "I heard the reason they call you outcast is that your adoptive parents don't even care about you."

Reality slaps me so hard I can't contain my tears any longer, out of all the rumours, lies, insults and statements Hwangsae had said, this one cuts right through my heart. And it was all because it's true, my mother did die and my father did put me up for adoption. You would think having rich adoptive parents would be great, but it's actually lonely. All I have ever wanted is a loving family let alone friends.

Hwangsae just laughs and lets me go. As I hit the floor I stumble over my own two feet trying to get back up, sprinting for home.
