A Girl That Hated by Everyone
I've been dreaming, a dream where mom smiled. Playing with me all day, spending her time with me like always. A moment of bliss that I have. This dream started over and over, with the same beginning and the same ending. Liked by everyone, a figure of inspiration for children, and mom's proud daughter. A loop of happiness that momentarily fill the emptiness of my heart. But, the dream stopped. The caring smile mom gave, turned into an unrecognized expression. In mom's eyes, there's only fear inside of it. As if looking at something hideous. "Mom, it's me,...." I tried to have a conversation with her. But what I got was a shout of expulsion. "GO AWAY!" That day, the day I lost everything. I thought after that certain event when I came back to my hometown, people will swarming me and praised me. But, instead of gratitude. All I got was nothing but screaming. The people and the children that kind before, throwing stones at me. I closed my eyes, hoping that this nightmare will come to

Encounters
The room was in mess with debris littering all over the place. From the hole, Latina came out. Shouting to the people in front of her with all her might."Give me back Orion!"Without thinking, she shoots magic from her hand. A ringing sound reverberated throughout the whole area, blasting the bedroom, and opening a big hole to the other side of her entrance. The two of them bounce by the after-effect, but before the person completely stands. Her eyes got blinded by Latina. Both of her eyes got slashed by magic."AAAAAAAAHH!"The girl screamed, writhing in pain. Red liquids gushed from both of her eyes, tainting her adorable face with crimson red. Both of her hands push her eyes, hoping that the action can relieve the pain a little. After that, with hand tainted with red. She reaches out her hand, searching for someone in her blindness."Orion,""Orion, where...... are you....?"Orion was stunned, watching the girl that happily playin

Family of Three
It was bright and sunny outside, the birds chirping all around the time making the atmosphere much more lively. Orion, still lying on the bed, moved a little. Bandage wrapped around his body, leaving his legs, arms, and head untouched. Before long, his eyes opened. The bright light that coming from the windows makes his eyes squint a little. On the side of the windows, there's a girl, sitting on a stool reading a book with contempt. Her back was facing the windows, and she was using natural light to brighten the book she was holding. Orion tried to move his body, trying to take a sit position. Noticing that, Latina helps him, holding him with her hand on his back, trying to support him.When he's comfortable enough with the position, Latina steps back, pulling her stool so she can get closers to him, and then says, "Good morning, Orion,""Yeah, morning,""Hows you feel, Orion?""Can't move my body, also my back feels itchy,"She's giggling, and says, "...Want me to scratch it?""You

Reason
In the morning, Orion is all geared up. Ready to do his routine each month like always. "....you sure, Orion?"Latina came, asking for confirmation. With Alicia on her side, she goes after Orion in front of their house."Orion, I don't think you're well enough,..."The two of them worried for Orion, first of all, Orion was an ordinary human. He didn't have much power to protect himself against something unexpected like before. The unknown variable that didn't bother any of them made them worry. Orion is worried about the other two and vice versa.With a reassuring smile, Orion says, "Yes, as I said before, I can't stay cooped here and do nothing,""I see,.....""If you already made up your mind then, I can't do anything,""Just, stay safe, Orion," added Alicia.Hearing someone wishing him to stay safe puts a smile on his face. Over and over he reassures them that he will be okay. In the end, Latina and Alicia let h

Reason ( 2 )
"Speaking of Orion, are you sure he is a normal person?"In the middle of the tea time they were held, Alicia threw a question to Latina as they spoke. It's a normal question but, hard for Latina to answer."I don't know,""You don't know?"Latina nodded and said, "Yes,....""When we met, his condition other than dehydration was not that bad,""He's lying down, looking at the sky as if he was waiting for his end,""When I brought him to this house, he was in a coma for about six months,""After that, without prying about my past or condition, we lived together,....... It's like an unspeakable rule for us that we do not ask or pry into each other circumstances, that's all," said Latina."But,...."Deep inside, Alicia wants to know something about Orion but her words are stuck in her throat. Knowing the unspeakable rule that Latina mentioned, she can't muster herself to ask another question.Before Alicia continue her sentence, Latina cuts in and said, "You want to know why he didn't ge

Reason ( 3 )
The day passed by, it's been a week since that massacre happened. Orion, inside the house, behaves as if nothing happened. He is still the same old Orion who wakes up in the morning and does all the housework. But, sometimes, when he was alone. A cloud covers his eyes, leaves his consciousness, and drowns in the depths of the dark sea alone. This noon, after he ate lunch together with the others, he was heading out. He is walking to the path that leads him to nowhere inside the woods. Rays of light passing through the leaves decorate the path he takes with rustling sounds as his companion. Not long after that, he finally arrives at the place where his mind is set all this time. In the middle of the forest, there's a gallant tree that's much more huge than the one that at their house standing alone reigns its territory—blocking the bright sunlight with its leaves, leaving the open space it created covered in shadow. With easy steps, Orion walks in, approaching the tree with his eyes c

Sounds of The Starve
In the city where small lamps were gleaming, garnish the town with its light. A small girl, old enough to be admitted to middle school was running. She's gasping for breath, and she's running from her pursuer with her bare legs. "Hey! Stop you lil' rat!"  On her back, a grown man is wearing a flat cap and suit with an overcoat.  Even with his shout, everyone in the surroundings didn't show much care for the situation. They were only looking without showing any care and just walking. Using her small figure to her advantage, she forces her way through, leaving a big gap from her pursuer until her figures are fully immersed in the sea of people inside the shopping district. "Darn it! That lil'rat,""That rat's really quick on her feet," Given up, the man who pursued her walked away from the spot the girl was gone. Deep in the alley, on the ground using a card box as the pad, the girl sitting down hugging her knee with a l
