Once upon a time, there's a village named Malibagin and all of the villagers living inside are clean. The leader is very clean and the people thought like he is a statue for having a different kind of clear skin. This leader was Bagli and he was admired, respected, and envied as the leader of his people because he had never been spit on by any kind of dirts.
One day as Bagli was pondering on his garden, he saw a man who had been looking by the soldiers for a long time. Nisli, the one who wants to be catch and killed by people because of its stinking smell and wrapped up in the dark that people call curses.
Nisli headed in Bagli's place, but it was quiet and calm as if he is planning and thinking something. Bagli covered his nose so that he will not inhale the smell coming from Nisli.
"What are you doing here, Nisli? The soldiers are looking for you and they will not stop until they catch you. So you're just going to run as you spend the rest of your days here on earth," Bagli said. Nisli maintains being quiet as he watched Bagli from head to toe, still confused because why he was being pursued and wanted to be killed.
The soldiers arrived and Nisli immediately forced to kneel down, his face becomes numb as he stared at Bagli's face. He regretted it and look down. Nisli shrugged and spit on one of the soldier. It's a disgrace to do that anywhere in town. Nisli looked up again and smiled.
"You really don't know to value things ," Nisli said. A soldier is trying to hurt him but Bagli stopped it. "You are a person with no value to where we all started. These black curses as you call them live on pests like yours. You stole all of that in the town of Ligo so we are now smuggling and taking in the product we created ourselves."
"You know nothing! That's right for you all! Your skin with a dark curse is what symbolizes you. Because all of you don't know how to stay, contented and listen," Bagli said.
"We wouldn't be like this if this is not because of you," Nisli said, his eyes is tearing down as the heavy rain fell to the ground.
The black spots on Nisli's skin are gradually eroding and so are the disappearances of the peculiar white that Bagli possesses. They are infront of each other with the color what they have right now.
