Does Fate Have to Be Like This?

Does Fate Have to Be Like This?
Adrian's? You All right?


After school after a terrible incident happened to Adrian. Adrian looked gloomy, and unwilling to talk to me, his face was lethargic with his empty gaze. I kept trying to talk to me. But he did not respond to my words at all.


Maybe I shouldn't have talked to him when he was going through something unexpected like that, and again this has really crossed the line. Their treatment is getting worse and worse, and outrageous. Maybe for now I should stay away from Adrian, and leave him alone for a while until things return to how they were before.


Then I left my room, and approached my mother to help the mother who was cleaning the house. Dive the table, furniture carefully because the items here are worth a fortune. If only we had accidentally broken it like that, we could have been kicked out of this house, and lived on the streets. But fortunately Adrian defended us, so we can still stay here.


"Son... Why do you always stay away from mom, and Mr Angga?" said my mother who suddenly approached me with her serious face while I was wiping the window.


"There is nothing, ma'am." said I who always lied to my mother, and uncle Angga when asked like this. It's not the first time I've been asked this question, and I've always lied that nothing happened to us.


"Honestly, I want you to know that you're lying, and hiding something from you" said my mother with her increasingly serious face. I did not dare to steady my eyes or face when I spoke, I always turned my eyes away from my mother. Because if I look at mom's face, it'll make me cry, and tell mom everything that's really going on.


"If you don't believe me, I will hate you forever" I said firmly, having to say this. But it actually hurt so much to say this disrespectful to my mother. I kept turning my eyes away from my mother, and stayed focused on what I was working on right now.


Meanwhile, she was silent for a moment with a sad look when she saw me, "Maybe you don't know what you're hiding from me. But. Dad always knew, and saw you from another realm, and knew what happened to you actually" said my mother who then left me with sad feelings.


After hearing my mother's words, I went straight to my mother, but she had already left while walking quickly to her room. I felt upset, and hated myself, because I had made my mother sad. Actually, I was eager to get to my mom at the time, and explain everything frankly with what happened to us actually.


But I was afraid that my mother would worry about me, and make me sadder at this time. I don't want that to happen, I'm afraid mom will be okay after hearing the real story that happened to me, and Adrian. What if my mom had a heart attack from shock from hearing my story. The mother's heart became weak after experiencing the fire, as too much smoke inhaled a lot of damage to her body.


Maybe also if I tell this to my mother, most likely me, and Adrian will be transferred to another school so that we do not experience something similar to the previous school. But I'm too good.I don't see the reality, the reality of a monster-like person like me, and mom. Those people hate monsters like us mom.


Although we always move around here and there as long as we are monsters, and partitions with the gathering of humans. We will always be hated, and away from it, no one cares about us or pityes kuta ma'am. Because we are disgusting monsters in their eyes. It's free if I change schools if I'm with humans, and I'm a monster.


The world in which we are still human, and not such ugly monsters. The world of monsters, and humans is very different, one could say their world is always in comparison.


After I finished cleaning, I went back to my room. As soon as I got back I saw Adrian breaking my school bag. I was very surprised, and immediately approached Adrian, and was very worried about what was happening compared to my school bag.


"Adrians! what happened to you?" my words came to him, and Adrian was surprised at the moment when I heard my voice. I don't know why I feel something strange about Adrian's current attitude.


"Eh!? ah!? Ryan.so-so-about this." said Adrian who stammered, and looked panicked. Then I ran, and hugged him, right now I think Adrian is under a lot of stress because of the incident at school. Maybe that's why he destroyed my bag, because he lost control of himself who was fed up with the life he lived.


"I know.it must have been very heavy, and painful. It was so painful that it drove me crazy, I knew it.." I said in a soft voice to Adrian, then I let go of my embrace, and held her shoulders with both hands while looking at her seriously, and smiling at her.


"Patience Adrian. because soon we will graduate, and seize our power when in Junior High. Anyway we have to keep the figure that is feared in school, so that no one underestimates us as we are today" said I who made Adrian calm again, and sat on the bed.


"You are right. I am looking forward to it." said Adrian blankly, but at a glance I saw Adrian's strange smile.


"Well then, how about we play the game now?" my words that invite Adrian to play games to relieve the stress he is suffering at this time, and make him cheerful again as usual when at home.


"Well, this time I'll win!" adrian who looks excited again.


"Haha! maybe you have to play for decades to win against me" said I who deliberately irritated Adrian.


"I'll make sure today I'll beat you Ryan!" adrian said, frowning with annoyance, and then switch his, and then play with me to achieve the victory he had hoped for so far when competing with me.
