At 7 years old, I became alone. After a child's personality has developed when a child turned 7, or as what the "Society" claims to be facts, they were separated into 4 categories- life, lief, ilef and the unspoken. Being sorted into ilef was considered a disgrace, and that was where I was sorted into. No family, no friends, nothing. Everyday was a living nightmare, with dead bodies of those that committed suicide strewn over the streets. There was absolutely nothing to live for. I wanted to know what happiness was ,i wanted to see how my family looks like now, i wanted to be free from here. That was my only motivation to stay alive and escape from here. Even if I die, I would at least die without regrets. My journey in LIFE, and eventually into ILEF, as my so called "therapy" begins starts now. Romance, hopelessness and sacrifice, something I hope to have never experienced engulfed my journey, towards death or a better life. I would never know.
LIFE and LIEF are those that are contented with life and are classified as 'normal' in this society. LIEF however were considered to be the more desired ones in today's society as they would gladly accept anything life throws at them and would sacrifice food or resources for the good of others. They would still be happy about it.
ILEF however was deemed to be "flawed" as happiness was a rare emotion for them, and are hence hushed to another part of the world, where it was filled with people of the same kind. Reason? Because depression was "contagious", and there was no point providing for those that would never be satisfied.
The unspoken, well there is a reason why its not spoken.
