I know that people are not born equal.

I've known this since I was four years old, and yet, I still tried.

I always tried my best, no matter what.

I tried and tried and tried.

Now look where it got me.

On my school rooftop, watching the sun fall over the horizon.

Such a beautiful sight.

What a way to end it.

I'm so tired.

This has been one hell of a day.

It's been one hell of a life.

I mean, there have been some good parts about today, but what are they worth now?

I got to see that villain fight this morning. That was good.

My teacher pointed out that I wanted to go to Yuuei. That was bad.

Kacchan burned my book and told me to kill myself as a result. That was bad too, but where I 'm at.

I got attacked by the sludge villain. That was bad.

I met All Might and got his autograph. That was good.

Though he did tell me to give up on my dreams, just like everyone else. That was bad.

I accidentally made All Might drop the sludge villain, and Kacchan got attacked. That was bad.

I tried to save him, though I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing. It's probably bad, but with the power of optimism, I can try to make my life a sound bit better, even if it's a lie.

All Might saved Kacchan and I, and that was good, though I still feel a bit salty about what he said to me.

Kacchan got praised while I got in trouble for trying to help him, and that was bad.

Kacchan found me after that, and yelled at me. I'm lucky he didn't attack me or something, but it was still bad.

I changed course after that, getting tired of running into bad things.

I got a bit lost, but I saw my school, so I went that way, thinking I might go home from there.

When I got there, I saw my reflection in a window.

I was pretty slimy and dirty. It was super gross.

I decided to take a shower at the school, and after I did, I put on the spare clothes I keep in my bag.

I always have spare clothes and a first aid kit in my bag, for the days that Kacchan takes it too far.

I wouldn't want to worry my mother. She was probably already worried by then, it was really late.

I left the shower room, and decided that since it was already so late, I may as well take my time and have a walk around the school.

A lot of times, some of the doors were unlocked because people were too lazy and irresponsible to lock them. Oh well, better for me, I guess.

I walked through the halls, peeping into rooms as I went up one floor at a time. It was nice and quiet.

Eventually, I made it to the roof, and I was a bit confused at first, until I looked at the sunset.

It made me feel at peace.

Man, the bad outweighed the good today, that's for sure.

Bad - 7

Good - 3 (+1 with barely maintained optimism)

Since I've been so optimistic for so long, I'll score that maybe with the good.

Well, my dreams have finally revealed reality, a harsh, cruel, cold, barren wasteland of a reality, the breeze feels nice though.

I'll settle for this.

This warm and welcoming sunset.

And the hard ground I am currently being dragged towards by gravity.

Guess what Kacchan, I've taken your advice.

Going into the next world, with a dive off the rooftop.

Comment, I'm lonely.
