1 The retard

Daniel is a retard. He knows himself. How is he a retard? That's a good question because usually, most people who know him would ask you back, "Are you new around here? So that's, why you don't know about this dumb spoiled kid!".

It was not always like that. People were once complimenting him about how he's a very smart, ambitious kid who will follow after his father's path. A rich CEO. Of cause, Daniel was very proud of his dad but that was from his naive youth. As a middle child and the only son of a rich family, he was expected to inherit his father's business but as time grows, people's expectations of him grew lesser and lesser until it goes over the breaking point and people start insulting the young child for incompetent.

To be honest, Daniel as a young adult hated humans in general because all of us were only looking for something entertaining, would join the fun, and ignore the consequences of it but as he grows older, he realized something after gaining knowledge from reading books years after years.

Life is not fair for everyone. Daniel had a good background but a broken family where his father is ambitious and stingy with the money, his mother always complaining about the insufficient funds and his siblings would abuse each other to escape from their own pain. He's realized that life's not all about having fun. People will face hardship and only if they can successfully go through the challenge will they reach the goal. His goal was simple. To become rich but it's harder to start doing it than just saying it.So he started brainstorming how to make money from nowhere!

Investments! That's the first thing he thought and that's what he asked his dad for. But as a retard that he was, all the business plans that he was proud of were destroyed with a few words. "No work experience and how can I trust you" He realized that only with money can he make more money or else he will have to work as a slave for someone even if that person is his dad. Daniel wasn't always a prideful person when he was young. After many cases of physical abuse from his teachers, one day he realized that he must stand up for himself and only he can save his life but now that pride that always protected him from people bullying has turned against him.

In the end, he couldn't endure the hardships so he ended his life to escape from the trials of god.
