Short stories from my school books

I was feeling more nostalgic than usual and grabbed two of my old books that I read for my school work years ago and some stories were just as heart breaking and soul crushing as I remember I just can't not share them with the world even if the small amount of people will see this.

(None of these stories were made by me. They are all short stories that I read during the time (which was somewhere near the end of my childhood) I started realising that the world is not at all about fun and games (sadly). They are also the type of stories that I wish I could forget just to read them for the firat time again even though they are sad.)
