Chapter 46: Test marks

"Congratulations, master!"

Viktor was surprised to see the table full of food.

"Master, I saw the result announcement outside the academy when I was on my way back from shopping. I saw you in the first place, So I decided to make a great feast today. "

What the hell? I didn't even score 100 marks so why did he cook all those dishes? Did he mistakenly saw my test marks wrong? I don't know but I'm really feeling uncomfortable after seeing him cook a lot of dishes when I only scored 75.

I should at least thank him, right?

"Oh.. Thank you, Adonis. "

Viktor's lip had a soft smile on its corner. But he was not sure what was going on inside Adonis's head. He thought that he mistakenly cooked those foods without checking the result mark. There was no reason for Adonis to congratulate him when he only passed with poor marks.

"Master, here, I made this soup with the mushroom they found in the mountains. It's so rare but I got my hands on it today. How is it?"

Did he cook this delicious-looking soup? It also smells so good. I should eat them all because I am starving.

It's really good...

The soft texture of the mushroom melted inside of his mouth. n/-o/(V-.e-.L)-b.-I-(n

...

Slap!!!

"I feed you, I gave you a place to sleep, I gave you clothes to wear, I gave you money to study. And this is how you repay me?"

Tisssss!!!!!!

A young boy was beaten up by his mother because she wasn't satisfied with his result. She was so furious, so frustrated that she wanted to kill herself. She regretted all of her life decisions.

"I, I really had enough!! I am going to show you want happens when you bit the hands of the owner that feeds you."

The mother was beating him with his belt. He was silently laying on the cold floor tucked in like a snail. His back was turning red but he wasn't in a situation to fight back. He was feeling guilty that he didn't do well on his exam. He thought that he deserved to be punished for what he had done.

"How dare you!!! How dare you show me that result of yours!!!! I want to kill you so badly!!! Aahh!!!!"

Tisss!!! Tiss!!! Tisss!!!!

Suddenly, she lost her balance and fell off in front of him and unfortunately, he was looking right into her eyes at that time. They made eye contact in a bad situation. So, she became more furious.

"You're looking at me? Ha? You're feeling good that I fell over?? Haaa??? You dog!!! "

She screamed while using that belt as a whip

Tisss!!!

"Come with me you dog! No more food for you! "

She dragged him by his hair and locked him inside a dirty room which was actually a kitchen storage. Trashcan was emitting a dirty smell and there were bugs all over the place.

-There's no light in this room. I'm getting used to this room day by day ever since she gave birth to that girl.

He looked up by sitting on the floor with his injured body full of brushes. The moonlight was coming inside the storage room through the small window.

-It hurts, but I don't have any emotion left to express it. Someday, I will also forget what pain is. I wish I could leave everything behind and run away from this place. But who will take me in again?

"I'm just a loser."

He look out his phone and saw it had only 12% change left. He saved a picture of space full of stars as his screen lock so that he could see the stars when he was not outside. It was the only thing that distracted him from bad situations.

So he stared at it until the battery came down to zero and turned off.

-Oh. It turned off. Now it's all dark all over again.

He stood up and looked outside through the small window, there were no stars, but a big shiny moon. He was disappointed because he likes the stars more.

Even so, he looked at the moon. It was too bright.

The silver-white moon was reflecting light on his silver eye and it became similar to the moon itself.

Just like the moon, he had a lot of bruises all over his face.

-I wish the moon could've been a little less bright so that I could enjoy the stars behind it.

Grolll.....

-It's okay. I can just sleep and pass the day without worrying about food. It's just a day or two.

His rough treatment was becoming common day by day that starving for a whole day was just some hours on the clock.

Let's go to sleep. No one will open the door until tomorrow afternoon.

So, he lay on the floor, and took a cardboard on his body like a blanket and barely tucked under it. His legs were still outside that dirty cardboard. But he was fine, as long as his body has something on it, he can fall asleep.

-I think this is enough for me. I can sleep in here.

He looked at the small window and saw a bright star twinkling which made him smile a little.

Hah...!

If I just studied a little more, I could've scored perfect in math...

He fell asleep and the moonlight fell on his face after some hours. But he was in such a deep sleep that it wasn't even bothering him anymore. He was unconscious by the enormous pain all over his body.

Bugs started to crawl on his face and body but he didn't care. Because he know he had to sleep for a long time. It was happening too frequently that he was able to sleep for 12 or 14 hours without any food or water like a bear in his hibernation.

But his injured body made him unconscious in his sleep. So he fainted and stayed out cold for more than 20 hours.

So what?

Who cares?

Nobody is going to look for him for the headcount like back in his orphanage. His real home.

So, he kept sleeping and sleeping.

His test mark sheet was in his arms all the time. He was holding it firmly, but he let it go when he became unconscious. He was hopeless...

Exhausted...
