After so long of not being able to socialise with people aside from my dad and group of friends, I develop a fear of social life. Which is better known as...
Anthropophobia
-You Have To-
Y/N P.O.V
I'm laying in my bed, after another day of home lesson. Yeah... I'm homeschooled. I chose to be that way. I don't really like going out. I prefer to be at home... For... Some reasons.
One, I don't socialise. Only with my dad's friends. Second, I don't want to be involve into a drama that always seem to happen in school. Third, I don't want anyone to know what I am capable of. It's enough to be caught once which makes me get treated like a freak by them.
Flashback
I'm walking down the street. When I heard a loud scream. Out of instinct, I run towards the direction of the scream.
There's a little boy dangling on a bridge which is about to collapse, and by the looks of it... He can't hold on much longer.
Seeing this, I instantly run towards the almost broken bridge. "Hey! Are you crazy?? That's dangerous! Are you out of your mind!!" I keep running, ignoring their scream for me to stop. I can't let the boy die.
Just as I was about to reach the bridge. It collapse. I stop in my track, hearing the boy screams in complete terror. I shake my head. I and fly towards the boy.
I caught him before he falls into the ocean. Then I fly upward. "Shhh... It's alright little boy... You're safe now... I've got you..." I said. He clutch onto my shirt tightly, burying his face into my chest.
But then I accidentally collided to some of the broken pieces of the bridge. This makes me let go of the boy. I dive down and caught him again. But it's too late. I fall into the water. So all I can do, is swim over to the shore.
But when I get there. I was instantly being held by two man. "You imbecile! How dare you try to hurt a little boy??" One of them yelled. "N-no I w-wasn't... I was trying to save him! I wouldn't hurt anyone..." I said. There are a lot of people taking pictures of me.
The next day I was at school. As soon as I enter the school. Paper ball and trash is thrown my way.
"Go away, you Freak!" "Yeah! We don't want you around!" "Yeah! Get lost!!" "You're just a Monster!" More and more hateful comments is thrown my way.
I turn around and run away from the school ground with tears stream down my cheeks. I asks my dad to just let me do homeschool. It's hard to find a tutor for me, because they are all afraid of me. Probably because they believe more on what the media said about me. But we finally manage to find one.
I've been homeschooled ever since...
End of Flashback
"Y/N! Can you come down here for a sec? I need to tell you something..." I heard my dad calls out for me from downstairs. "Coming!!" I reply. I get up from my bed and start making my way down the stairs.
"What is it dad?" I question. "Y/N... Sweetie. I would like you to attend a school..." He said. My eyes widened at what he just said. I snap out of my shock and stare at my dad. "I'm... I'm sorry... what? I think I hear that wrong? Cause I thought I heard you asks me to attend school" I said. "No, Sweetie... You heard it right. I do want you to attend school" he said. "Woah... Y-you're joking right?" I said. But his face told me otherwise.
"Dad... Have you forgotten how they all treated me back at my last school? I am not going to school and have that repeated... Nah ah... No wayy! That is NOT happening" I said, waving my hand around.
He walks forward and place both of his hands on my shoulder. "I know sweetie... I know... But trust me on this okay? Everything is going to be alright... No one is going to judge you... That happened a long time ago. You can just transform yourself into another look... And no one is going to recognise you. It will be alright" He said in a soothing voice. My whole body started to shake.
I shake my head. "I-I don't wanna go to school, D-Dad... P-Please don't m-make me..." I plead. Endless tears begin to stream down both of my cheeks like a waterfall. My dad frowns at my state and pulls me into a hug. He caress my hair.

It hurts me more than anything to see my Daughter in pain like this. I wish I could do something... Anything. I really want to help her. What happened in her past really cause a serious trauma in her mind.
I caress my Daughter's head softly. "Shh.... It's okay... You don't wanna go to school... Okay, I understand... I'm sorry to even consider it. It is alright, okay? Shh... Don't cry sweetie... Shh..." I whispers in her ear softly.
She slowly begin to calm down. "I'm sorry dad, I do want to go... I'm just scared..." She said in a weak tone. I bend down to her height. "Hey... Look at me..." I said. She lift her head and look at me.
"I tell you what... How about you try to go for a week... ONLY for a week. If you like it there... You can stay... But if you don't, we'll go back to homeschool and I won't force you to go to ANY school ever again..." I said. She just stare at me. "Promise?" She said. I nod my head "I promise, Sweetie..." I said. She thought for a bit, before nodding her head. "Alright... I'll give it a shot" she said. Then she looks at me with a serious expression. "But...
I'm disguising myself as a boy
