He did part-time jobs and made 3,000 dollars in a semester. The day he fainted, he had planned to go to the hospital to pay the money and let his grandmother have chemo.
But he was stopped by the bullies from the vocational high school. He brawled with them like a wolf, but he still lost the 3,000 bucks in the end.
On the way back, he felt like his world was all dark.
He walked in the snow like one without a soul, but he could feel that someone was watching him.
'Laughing at me, right?’ he thought.
He had been ridiculed for a long time.
When he was young, some laughed at his grandmother for picking up things others threw to sell; when he was older, some mocked him as a parentless wild child; when he got older, some taunted him for being one who would haggle over a penny.
He let them laugh, and he was already used to it.
This world was like this. When your weak points were shown, others would only laugh at you.
When he fell, he thought his falling was good.
His grandmother had kept him company for almost seventeen years. Compared with the thing that he would have to watch her die, he thought dying in the freezing snow was nice.
But before he died with all his consciousness being lost, he heard someone come over and call him.
But he could not talk anymore, nor did he want to. And he didn't think the person would save him. Since the person did not fish in troubled waters, he, Harley Dane, thought of the person as a kind one.
But the person did save him, which he had not expected.
