Chapter 01 : Glazed eyes.

~~○○~~

Since she was 8 years old, she heard so much ridicule.

Not a few of them often injured her so that she had to go home with a bruised body that left marks on her body.

Even worse, the school didn't dare to expel the bullied children because they also received threats from the parents of these students.

Her parents had to be forced to take her to another city because of injustice and also a very deep disappointment.

Until when she was 11 years old, an incident happened to her.

She was so scared that she could only run so that no one could chase her. Unfortunately, that incident had left her only able to see a world of pitch darkness.

Until not too long, she felt someone was taking her. Slow but sure.

(My body can't move. My vision.. is starting to fade. Huh! Who are you? Why are you looking at me like that? I'm so scared.)

She doesn't remember what happened after that. She looked around to see if she was already in her room. Even so, she could only remember a little. That time she saw someone. Even though it looked faint, she saw that the person was looking at her with a glazed look.

She had asked her parents even though she had not fully recovered. But her parents told her that there would be a time when she could find out who had helped her, and told her to go back to sleep. The words from her parents sounded so touched, and also couldn't escape the tears.

10 years later..

"Good morning. Miss laura."

Laura cloverya. That's the name.

She always smiled while waving at anyone who greeted her.

She is now 21 years old. She was always taught by her parents to face situations of joy and sorrow with a tough attitude. Until she finally realized her dream of becoming a teacher at an elementary school in Florida.

While she was still a student, her parents were always by her side when she was down. Be it the bullying that still haunts her, or the bad things that always happen to her. They always try and support her.

Thinking about it, made her determined to become a teacher because she really appreciated what her parents had taught her.

Her life now as a teacher is the first step she has to live alone for now.

Unfortunately, in the middle of her journey, she was confronted by several people.

"Hey guys! It looks like this Lady is lost. How about you play with us?"

Feeling uncomfortable, she ignored them and chose to retreat. But her movement was blocked so that she couldn't go anywhere.

"Come on, lady! It won't hurt to join us for a bit."

But unfortunately, they immediately caught by someone. He didn't even hesitate to punch them in the face until they fell down without a move.

Not only that, he pulled Laura away and then punched back. Even when one of them hit it with a wooden block he found, that guy didn't move at all. Even the block of wood became broken, it was thick enough than a fist. He also returned to give punches several times, until that guy who attacked him fainted.

Laura, who saw that, could not believe it. It happened so fast to her.

When the man approached her, he give his hand but he did not say a word. Even though his hand was injured from the fight earlier, Laura held his hand without hesitation.

They stared at each other.

Even so, she felt that she seemed to have seen those eyes before. And when she look at him.. he has the same gaze. Such a sad look.
