Millard Nullings is the resident invisible boy in Miss Peregrine's home for peculiar children, this has its ups and downs. It's very useful when he wants to sneak up on people or when he just wants to be alone. The problem is that when your invisible it's easy to be forgotten. He likes to spend a lot of time naked because it fully hides him and while Miss Peregrine does regularly tell him to put on clothes sometimes there are exceptions. Like last week when Millard was feeling especially down for some reason, Miss Peregrine came to understand that sometimes he just doesn't want to be seen at all.
It started when Millard woke up, he felt almost blank like he was void of emotions. He got dressed and ready for breakfast, as Miss Peregrine would otherwise tell him that 'Polite people do not dine in the nude'. He walked down towards the dining room before changing his mind, he knew he would get told off for skipping breakfast but he wasn't even hungry to instead he went outside into the garden. He began to think, he couldn't remember what he looked like, he had been born visible and he had a photo of when he was a baby with his parents but apart from that he can't remember. No one else knows what he looked like, sure he can feel that he has longish hair because he could never get it cut but he didn't know what colour it was, he didn't know his eye colour or any of the small trivial details like that. The thing about being invisible is that no one can ever see your face meaning that when Millard is particularly down, he can cry and no one would even know. He wasn't sure why he was crying but he sat there crouched outside for a while before he heard the door open, he looked up and saw Emma standing by the door, she looked round before shouting his name. Hiding behind a bush, he stripped himself of his clothes meaning that he was completely invisible and walked away further into the garden. He could still hear Emma calling his name but he wasn't bothered he sat down once again and just stayed there as silent tears fell down his face, a choked sob erupting from his throat as he tried his best to supress them.
