After a while, I made new friends they were new kids sent to this orphanage.
Though our friendship didn't last too long. They seemed to forget me most of the time.
It hurt me so much. I thought they wouldn't leave me. I thought I was finally being noticed, I thought I was visible to their eyes but I was wrong I was simply a memory forgotten so easily.
I sound too dramatic but as a child, if your friends ignore you it would seem as though you could've done something horrible. And to be honest this has happened to me countless times.
I walked up to them to say hello, they looked at me weirdly and asked who I was, We were just playing yesterday did they forget?
"Hey, guys! "
"..guys? "
"umm, who are you? "
"It's me Tsubomi... "
"Sorry, we don't really know you... "
"B-but we played y-yesterday. "
I smiled and told them it was me from yesterday they told me they didn't know me.
I forced a smile and nodded, I walked off back to the room shared by me, Kousuke, Kano.
For some reason, my heart felt heavy. It struck me like it was bleeding internally. It hurt so much I stayed at the corner sobbing.
Was I easily forgotten? I don't want to disappear. Am I going to disappear?
I sobbed quietly, my head was buried on top of my knees. I really feel so down.
Betrayal cuts like a knife. And those invisible wounds leave deep scars. No matter how much time you use to heal them they stay.
I don't understand the logic of this. I played with them yesterday how easily was I forgotten?
I'm sure that it's not possible for someone to forget so quickly. Maybe they have some sort of illness?
I stood up from my spot determined to find out if they did. I quickly rushed out and to the orphanage's main office.
But before I managed to get to the door. I bumped into a girl with hazel brown hair. She was at least 3 or 4 years older than me.
She gasped when I bumped into her. A horrified look was plastered on her face when she saw me.
"I-I'm sorry! F-for a minute there I-I thought you popped up all of a sudden, l-like a g-ghost! " She spoke while rubbing the back of her head nervously laughing.
"W-wait. Where are you headed?" I opt to ignore her.
"That direction leads t-to the head office, what could you be doing?" I don't understand why she's stuttering does she still think I appeared like a ghost. I cringed at that thought,ghosts don't exist. No worries. The girl in front of me inhaled a long breathe and exhaled slowly.
"Are you trying to pull a prank on the head?How horrible you shouldn't treat your elders like that. " She scolded me as though I was her little sister. I frowned at her and just played along and acted guilty.
"I'm sorry, I won't do it. " I nonchalantly stated. She smiled and patted my head. She's weird.
"I'm going to meet my new siblings today.My mom and dad are going to adopt some kids so I'll have little brothers and sisters." She cheerfully explains with a large grin on her face.
"Okay, tell me why you were headed in there?"
What should I say? I shouldn't make up an excuse. Or maybe I should?
