When the bell rang, two people rushed directly at each other. They hit each other, and they want to knock each other out. Or just one of the most ambitious men to hit. Because it turns out Theodore looks more limp than usual. He also cannot move steadily and tends to falter. His face was pale with dull black eyes. Moreover, his scars still adorn his face. He looks like a Walking Dead Man.
BUUGH!
BUGGHH!
Blow after blow floated across his face. Instantly making Theodore falter and fall to cross the boundary line. Everyone cheered on the victory of the other wrestlers. Some cursed Theo for losing. They don’t care about the helplessness, Theo.
Theo knows he won’t get paid for losing the match, so he can only walk out hard. Theo felt pain all over his body; the wounds from the previous match were still not healed, and he had no money for treatment. All he had was a piece of bread left over two days ago. Not knowing if it was still edible, Theo had no choice but to eat it or faint from hunger.
Unfortunately, before he had time to devour the bread, his body wavered and fell to the dirty Ground.
~0.0~
The eyelids slowly opened, showing a pair of eyes of different colours that were so beautiful. He blinked briefly as a form of adaptation to the new environment. Realizing that this is not where he lives, Theo immediately tries to get up. However, his fragile body lacked energy and instead caused him pain.
“Ughhh...” Theo winced in pain.
“Don’t move too much first.”
Theo immediately turned his face to the origin of the sound, where he found the figure of a middle-aged woman approaching while carrying a tray filled with bowls. Instead of obeying, Theo panicked even more and tried to leave this place at this very moment. Unfortunately, he was still not recovering well, so he was stuck in bed in constant pain.
“I told you,” the woman said. “Don’t move much.” She put the tray on the nightstand near the bed. Theo watched all the movements of the foreign woman very vigilantly. Like a wild Lynx unfamiliar to humans. “Eat, you have to recover first.”
At first, Theo wanted to refuse, but the delicious smell emanating from the bowl and his stomach, which had been messed up, made him unable to dodge and immediately grabbed the bowl nearby. The contents of the bowl are porridge with minced meat and meatballs inside. Theo devoured it. In his life, he had never tasted such delicacies. He should not even hesitate to maintain good manners while eating.
“Oh, my God... eat slowly so you don’t choke.”
Theo ignored the advice of the foreign woman and continued to devour the porridge until it was finished. Theo does not hesitate to lick the remains of the porridge left at the bottom of the bowl until a strange woman pulls the empty bowl back from Theo.
“You can get this food for free without hurting yourself again,” the woman said. “As long as you stay here.”
Theo was wide-eyed at the words of this woman. How can people be easily offered a place to stay when it is the first time they have met? Of course, Theo flatly refused the offer.
“Sorry, this is not my place,” he said. “I have to go now. Thanks for the food.” Theo lowered his head momentarily before trying to lift his body to leave this place. But the pain still covered her whole body. Theo bit his lips, holding back the grimace that could come out. After all, he had to leave this place before something terrible happened.
“You can leave after recovering,” the woman said. “I promise not to force you to stay if you want to stay for a few days while healing yourself.”
The offer was enough to make Theo hesitate. On the one hand, he needs shelter and medicine to heal his wounds, but on the other hand, he cannot repeat the same bad events.
“If you’re afraid of being mistreated, believe me, this is the safest place I’ve deliberately built to help people like you. In this place, you can live like a normal person. Nothing will set you apart from other kids.”
Theo was stunned. He paid close attention to the woman’s words. Even so, Theo still didn’t understand what the foreign woman said. Until the door of the room opened. Then, a boy who was the same age as Theo entered.
“Excuse me, Madam Liz, this is the medicine you need.”
A boy with bright yellow eyes like a wild cat. He has long blonde hair like a princess. Theo felt the same aura as himself. Like... it has the same magical power as him. Owner of Odd Eye Circle, a person with Tyr Gods Syndrome.
“Thank you, Jared,” replied the foreign woman, Madam Liz. “Come here for a while and meet your new friend.”
A boy named Jared approaches Theo and Madam Liz. A wide smile adorned his face as if he had never felt suffering before, as if nothing had hurt him all this time. “Hi... I’m Jared, what’s your name?” Jared held out his hand in front of Theo.
Theo just looked at it with no intention of returning a helping hand. He looked hesitantly but then began to move his mouth. “Theo... My Name Is Theodore.”
Jared smiled broadly and grabbed Theo’s hand without prior approval. “Nice to meet you, Theodore; let’s be friends!”
That someone other than himself has strange eyes makes Theo change his decision. Theo thought it wasn’t his fault to stay a few days in this place. As Madam Liz said, he could live like an average person in this place without being shrouded in fear.
“Yeah, let’s be friends,” Theo replied.

The backyard of the orphanage building was filled with boys who were enjoying playing soccer while laughing. They all seem to be enjoying the game. As if they were very far from the cruelty of the world. As if the color of their eyes was not a sign of danger at all.Theo watched silently behind the window of his room. His gaze glanced far out there while his mind was out of place. His little fingers trembled as he watched how the soccer ball was being kicked around by the kids out there. It was like a whip that reminded him of the dark memories of when he was still in his old orphanage. A place he initially thought of as home but found to be nothing more than a hell full of torment.When his body becomes the target of a kick by a soccer ball. Until he almost died because his neck was injured.Theo spontaneously stroked a very noticeable scar on the surface of his neck. It's been a while. The wound has also dried up.

The statement from Jared received ridicule from the boys in the middle of the field. It practically provokes Jared’s emotions and eventually makes him chase one by one of his friends.Theo watched from the side-lines. Although it seemed to make fun of them, but he felt that the boys had no evil intentions at all. They're just really playing with each other. And, it was a rare sight Theo had ever seen in his entire life.“Excuse me...”One word from Theo instantly got the attention of the rest of the boys there. They simultaneously turned to Theo without daring to interrupt until Theo continued his speech.Theo stared at one by one of them and gulped his saliva roughly. “Can I play with you guys?”Quiet for a moment. Theo was worried. Then another surprise attacked him.“Oh my gosh... You don't have to ask permission to play with us!” One of the boys grabbed Theo’s shoulder tightly and was followed by the others.“That's right! Play with us!”Theo felt incredible happiness for the firs

The first class hour is underway. Before that, Theo Awards an affectionate punch to Jared for deceiving him that they were late when they weren't. Jared just laughed afterward.There were fifteen students in the class including Theo and Jared. They sat individually and since Theodore was a new student, he was placed in the last seat. Coincidentally in front of him was Jared's seat. Theo could take revenge if he wanted to but he enjoyed today's lesson so much. Today's class is about how to control the power of thought."Know that the human mind is very complex,” says the teacher – Prof. Abraham. He was an African–American man with half-bald hair and all of his hair almost gray. He was wise enough to teach. “The human brain is composed of many nerves with diverse patterns. Like a giant, scaled-down maze. To enter the human mind is to enter the labyrinth. Even the owner of the body is often lost in their minds. And how can we control someone's mind if we find it so difficult to understan

Jared goes into Theo's room after knocking him first. Jared no longer wears a uniform but a black long-sleeved T-shirt with a number 07 on his back. He held a thick book in his hand.“Why haven't you changed your clothes?" Jared asked seeing Theo still in uniform this morning. “Change into the clothes in that closet.”Somewhat dazed, Theo opens the closet and finds some new clothes hanging there. His face glowed cheerfully. Then he chooses an outfit that catches his eye. A jacket with the image of an owl."Well, now we will talk about the rules in this school as well as in this dormitory.”There are many written rules, and Jared explains them carefully.06.0 – 07.30 Wake up and run the field for over an hour.07.45-08.30 bath and breakfast.08.45: following the lesson.12.00: lunch.12.30: following the second lesson.17.00: finish the lesson and students are free to do personal activities.19.00: dinner.21.00: bedtime.- All students are required to follow the stated schedule.

"As a child, I accidentally fell and scratched the fence,” Theo replied, touching the wound on his neck.Jared grimaced. “That must so hurt.”“I don't remember because I fainted immediately.”“You're tough boys! You must be the Chosen One!”"Stop calling me the Chosen One.”They spent dinner chatting occasionally. Theo remembers that they should not bring this food into the room, so he increases the portion of food and finishes it quickly before dinner time runs out.When he arrived at the room, Theo was very bored because he was not sleepy yet, and he was not allowed to meet anyone. A dormitory supervisor was walking down the Hall, checking on anyone who dared to go out at the Forbidden time. Theo didn't want to get punished when he was very new here. And he still didn't have a book to read while he waited for sleepiness to come. Theo opened the bedroom window. The permanent windows that cannot be opened do not even have a balcony. But it was enough for him to see the scenery outside

After the end of classes, Theodore again secretly brought a book about dreams. He went into the bathroom so that no one else could see him. Even Theo didn’t tell Jared this. He opened the first sheet.When the universe was first created, they were nothing but formed from tiny particles called atoms. The particles are so small that the ordinary eye cannot see them. But they are there. Those little things will never die from the beginning of created life until the apocalypse. It also affects humans. Atomic particles form man from the outer shell to the innermost nuclei of the brain. Each atom has a solid attachment to each other. The atoms in the innermost core of the head often help humans solve problems. Something called Instinct. The atoms that live in our heads are amplified by the energy emanating from meteors that fell thousands of years ago. Atoms often try to help us solve problems that we are unaware of. It can be through a dream or an event called Deja Vu.“Does this make sens

“Hi,” said the man. “I didn’t mean to interrupt, but is there a problem?”“Master Lazarus!” Jared immediately kissed the hand of the man – Lazarus. Theodore followed him.“Is there something disturbing your mind?” Lazarus looked worried at Jared.“Nothing at all, Sir.”“I don’t think so.”Lazarus put his hand on Jared’s head. His face was as cold as Jared’s. Theodore watched in silence, and then suddenly, Jared’s eyes twisted until only the white part was visible. Theodore was about to interrupt. He thought Lazarus was hurting Jared. But suddenly, Jared looks better. Jared looked in all directions, his gaze full of questions.“Are you all right, Jared?” Theodore lunged at Jared with a worried question.“What happened?”“You ask? Don’t you remember what happened?”Jared shook his head. Theodore is increasingly worried about Jared’s attitude. After Jared’s strange behaviour of trying to push him away, he feels like he just lost his memory. All this happened after Lazarus came. Theodore

“Jared, since when Have you been here?”“I don’t remember, but I think from birth.”“Has this place been around that long?”“Yup.”Theodore was envious of where he had been because he did not know this place. A place where the odd eye can live equally. No fights, no bullying, just living in peace. How beautiful. Theo looked around. The boys of different ages enjoyed their meals while occasionally chatting. There is no pretentious brat who interferes with other boys. They’re like family here. There was only laughter instead of screams. The professors were in their places to eat. They act like parents in this group. They do not distinguish students from one another. They even punished Jared, an intelligent student, for making a mistake. It’s just that Theo didn’t find a daughter as far as he could see. All students are men.“Jared, does this place only accept boys?”“Why do you ask?”“There are no girls here.”Jared looked around. “You’re right,” he said. “After you told me, I realized

Dia adalah Butler yang bertugas mengawasi pekerjaan para Maid lain. Termasuk pada gadis yang tengah memotong-motong kentang tersebut.Orion – Maid muda – menatap tanpa ekspresi tertentu. “Makan siang akan siap sebentar lagi, Tuan Steve.”“Bagus lah kalau begitu.” Steve – si Butler – tersenyum. “Apakah ada yang perlu kau butuh kan lagi?”“Tidak ada, semua sudah aman terkendali.”“Tuan Arthur tak suka –”“Daun bawang, bukan?” Orion memotong ucapan Steve sebelum pria itu menyelesaikannya. “Dan tak ada daun bawang pada sebuah Poutine.”Steve membuka mulutnya, hendak menyangkal sebelum akhirnya dia menyadari satu hal.

Udara dingin berembus meniup helaian rambut Electric blue, membuatnya sedikit berantakan sehingga gadis itu harus beberapa kali merapikannya.

“Hey, it’s okay..” Unsuur berusaha menenangkan pembangun. Sekalipun perasaan getir menggaung dalam hatinya. Respon pembangun menjelaskan bahwa dia telah melupakan segala hal yang terjadi semalam setelah muntah. Begitu juga dengan ciuman singkat mereka.‘Memang apa yang aku harapkan? Dia hanya mabuk bukannya menanggapi dengan serius.’“Unsuur.”“Yeah...”Pembangun menunduk. Meski begitu, Unsuur dapat menemukan semburat rona yang menjalar dari wajah hingga telinga pembangun. Dia tengah bersemu. Tetapi keheningan ini membuat Unsuur merasa gelisah. Kalau-kalau pembangun malah mengingat hal yang tak mengenakan. Seperti...“Semalam, entah kenapa aku merasakan sesuatu yang lembut menempel di bibirku.”BADUM!“Kau yakin?”Pembangun mengedikkan bahu. “Entahlah... tak begitu yakin.”“Jika merasa tak enak, lebih baik lupakan saja.”“Tapi –”“Makanlah bubur itu, setelah itu akan ku antar kau pulang.”Dan Unsuur keluar dari kamar, meninggalkan pembangun di dalam kamarnya.‘Semestaku terhisap luban

Pembangun menggeleng, hidungnya menggesek tengkuk Unsuur, membuat Unsuur merinding seketika. “Rasanya sangat bosan menari tanpamu.”“Lalu, kau mau bagaimana?”Pembangun terkekeh kecil. “Menarilah bersamaku~”“Tapi aku tak pandai menari.”Pembangun melepaskan pelukannya, menjadikan Unsuur menoleh ke belakang untuk meringankan rasa penasarannya. Kini pembangun berwajah masam, kecewa atas sikap Unsuur yang menolak ajakannya. Tetapi alih-alih merasa ketakutan, Unsuur justru mengulum senyum. ‘Dia sangat menggemaskan~’ Unsuur membatin.“Ayo lah... biarkan aku mengajarimu caranya menari~”“Tapi –”Sebelum Unsuur menolak, pembangun sudah menarik tangannya. Dan Unsuur hanya bisa pasrah ketika dibawa ke tengah-tengah lantai dansa. Pandangannya terfokus ke arah tautan tangan mereka. Jari-jemari lembut pembangun menggenggam tangannya.

Berbanding terbalik dengan seseorang yang duduk termenung di bawah pohon.“Hari ini tampak cerah bukan?” katanya dengan pandangan kosong. “Benar-benar cerah, tapi kenapa aku merasa kosong di sini.

Sang kapten civil corp yang tak pernah sekalipun melupakan kewajibannya untuk membawa kedamaian di Sandrok. Kota kecil dengan penduduk yang saling mengenal satu sama lain.“Aku baik-baik saja, hanya saja...” Unsuur mengambil batu yang ada di dekatnya. “Aku merasa batu ini lebih berguna daripada keberadaanku.”“Jangan konyol!”Unsuur meringis. “Maaf, tak akan ku ulangi lagi.”
