You can't stand living in the orphanage but you can't leave school, you still need education. Byunghun kept being punished and starved sometimes the evil ahjumma even hit him with a bamboo stick.

"Byunghun oppa, does it still hurt?", you asked as you softly touch the bruise on his upper arm.

"It's nothing, don't worry", he flashed a smile.

Monday

Age: 8

It's been almost a year since you left home. Your dad didn't mind looking for you and your brothers. Instead he must be feeling happier, since he did not have 7 kids that will burden him.
