"I don't care." I said to the person who was teasing me.

"Yeah, so?" I responded.

"Why thank you." I said and walked away.

I walked home and fell to the ground after closing the door.

I hugged me knees and closed my eyes.

"I do care. It hurts. With evey thing you say. It hurts more and more. I don't say thank you I say why? But I have to stay strong. To please my parents. To not give off as weak." I repeated over and over again.

I cried my heart out, because this the only place I can do that.

My bedroom.

It still hurts and they still tease me.

With every word they say my heart oozes with darkness, turning my heart black.
