After that, I tried to study, but I couldn't focus. I shut my eyes but couldn't fall asleep. Every ti I did so, that scene started to play. I just couldn't get it out of my mind.
My childhood isn't one that could be called 'pleasant.' But, my parents love a lot, and that's all that I needed.
When I was four years old, I morized a book. When I was in elentary school, I could quickly solve high school questions.
In middle school, I always got full scores on tests and exams without needing to study.
I was a loner. But when I started going to middle school, I made friends.
They always ca to to ask about studies, and I taught them everything. That was a new experience for . I was delighted.
I started hanging out with them. My mom never sent outside to play much because of the danger I could face as a royal family mber, but she would let go out once in a while.
Yet, because I always got full scores in exams, they started avoiding .
'You are too full of yourself.', they said.
'You teach us wrong things.'
'You get full marks because you are rich.'
I never tried to show off, nor did I do anything to make them feel inferior.
They stopped hanging out with . Everyone in the class, no, in the entire school, started avoiding .
Even the teachers gave a despising look.
'If I get low marks, and perform badly on my tests, then maybe they will talk to again.' I thought.
It was la and weird of to think of sothing so stupid. But, I wanted friends.
I didn't want to be alone anymore.
So in the next test, I wrote the wrong answers on purpose and scored the lowest in my class.
It had the opposite effect.
They started bullying .
They broke my notepads. Most of the ti, the gadgets from my bag went missing. My shoes would be filled with water. I would get locked in the toilet until the janitor ca to check on who kept screaming. I would get tripped on purpose. Sotis Sotis, I would even get beaten up. A shove or two to make fall off the stairs wasn't unusual.
If they did sothing terrible, they would bla it on .
I could have easily fought back, but I didn't want to hit my so-called 'friends.' I was so naive at the ti. But I am glad that they're all dead noweven the teachers.
My parents noticed my strange behavior and asked if sothing was wrong.
I was born a genius.
'My mom and dad are smarter than ; maybe it's because of them that I am a genius. So, I am getting bullied because of them? No, it's not their fault. I can't bla them, but it's not my fault either'.
I couldn't get that thought out of my mind.
There is no such thing as 'innocence,' at least not in this world. It has to be soone's fault. That's how this world works, after all.
The world of adults is scary; adults themselves are dangerous. They do evil sches just to get what they want. If that's how their world is, then I would rather die than grow up.
'I am just fed up with humans. They should all just die'. I wanted that, and I still wish for it.
Whenever I scored full scores, my parents would buy sothing and praise . That one ti, when I scored poorly on a test, they didn't ask why I got low scores.
'It's okay, do your best in the next test,' they comforted.
Even though I didn't grow up under their guidance, I love them, and they love too. I grew up under my grandparents' guidance, spending most of my childhood at the palace.
I have never asked them to do anything for , but they took on vacation every month and got gifts.
They also bought gas, but I never played them.
This was the only 'pleasant' thing I loved about my childhood.
When they asked what was going on in school, I revealed everything.
My parents called the principal on the spot and complained.
I stopped going to school. I had to make so excuses to cover up what I did.
After that, I only went to school to give the exams.
It wasn't like I needed to go to school anyway.
During that ti, I started going to the library.
The library in my city is the biggest in my state.
In that one year, I read every book present in that library. Though physical books rarely get published nowadays, only old ones that were already posted by that ti.
I could easily read two books at once, with a single glance. But I'm much faster with digital books. I have to say, though; my mory has always been wrong. I keep forgetting facts that were unimportant to .
Soon after, I graduated from middle school.
I took a particular course and got my high school degree in 3 months.
I kept studying various topicsso world-famous researches. I helped my dad with his office work and started my own business.
Then, one day, my mom asked to stop everything and go to university. I was bored anyway, so I agreed.
My mom wanted to go to the university she went to with my dad, so I talked with the principal there.
He said that if I wanted a university degree, then I must attend a high school.
I told him that I already have a high school degree, and he said, 'That doesn't matter. I want you to go to school'.
I told my mom the old guy was making so unreasonable demands.
My mom sternly said I should go to high school. They wanted to enjoy my youth.
I had no intention of doing that. But my mom was dead set on sending to high school.
I couldn't go against her words, so I agreed.
I was going to get a university degree anyway.
In the entrance exams of high school, I scored full marks, and due to that, I got branded as a scholar student.
I scored well in exams without studying, so I focused only on my university exams. Honestly, that too was pretty easy for .
'There is no need for to study; I am a genius, a prodigy.', There were tis when I thought that. But I didn't consider myself unique.
My life was nothing but hell.
About six months passed, and nothing unusual happened.
I had no idea about what I was doing in high school.
The school already knew about my condition, and my parents already inford the school that I already have a high school degree. So they never bothered much about .
I was about to drop out of high school because it was too dull for .
One day, a teacher called . It was the first ti in my life that this happened.
Since I was a topper, the teacher asked to tutor a girl who was on the verge of getting expelled.
'Why do I have to tutor soone? That's your job', I thought, but I couldn't say it.
If it were so other teacher,, I would have said it, but that teacher had helped in my first year, so he wasn't on my hate-list.
I started tutoring that girl. She was an idiot. She couldn't even solve fundantal mathematics problems.
'There is no way soone this dumb exists in this world. How did soone like her get into high school?'
She never actually cared about anything. She just fooled around and kept annoying .
As ti passed, we opened up to each other and beca close. We beca...friends, I guess?
I never wanted a friend, nor did I trust anyone in my life.
She barely survived the exams and got saved from expulsion.
Then, one day she invited out, and the rest is quite apparent.
She fell in love with a guy like , and, I fell in love with a girl like her.
We were total opposites, but we fell in love with each other.
I love her. I love Elena. I love her smile. I love her voice. I love her face. I love everything about her.
I am obsessed with her.
