Two weeks later, I was enrolled to a public school nearby.
For a small child I was very fast at adapting to my school work. I learnt to read and write faster than any of the children in my grade. At first my teachers did not realize that I was different from other children. But after two months I had learnt enough to skip grades and go to third grade.
My aunt was amazed that I was able to learn so fast. She always said that she was very proud of me. I was happy with her just thinking of me as her son. I figured that she would think of me more if I kept on getting better.
So I just kept learning.
Within a year I was able to reach until grade four.
After six moths my aunt started to worry about my health. She said that too much stress was not good for a child as young as me. I always said to her that I wasn't stressed, that she shouldn't worry.
That was a lie.
I never had problems with school work. I somehow seemed to do anything perfectly.
It was human nature that made my life hard.
I was never able to fit in with the other children. They always thought me as something different from themselves. Most children treated me differently, as if I was special. Some children bullied me, for being different. And their where some people, who ignored my existence completely.
They never understood me.
And I never understood them.
I had stress not because I was bullied, not because I didn't like the fact of being looked on as special, and not because I didn't like being ignored, but because I had a huge equation in front of me that I couldn't solve any way I tried.
In the whole world there was only one person I trusted, my aunt.
If I had not met her, I would have been living a very different life by now.
I would probably be put into an orphanage, a human body without a soul or mind. I would be dead inside, just as my mother was.
I wished that she would never leave my side, but alas, fate is a cruel thing.
Authors Note: I was not planning to upload it today, but I was given some free time so I am just uploading this chapter now.
I might also upload the next chapter today, but if I don't, it would probably be uploaded by Monday.
Thank you for the support! :)
