My Dreamy Old Husband

He lowered his head to look at Sophia’s face contorted in pain and it made his heart ache. I wonder how much my chica has suffered in the past.

Sophia was completely engulfed by the excruciating pain of her memories in that moment.

First, I am witnessing the death of my grandparents, who loved me. Next, the village chief is taking me to my uncle’s house because I need somewhere to stay and depend on others like a lowly dog.

Not too long after, I am looking at my harsh uncle and aunt. There is a chipped bowl with some stale porridge in it. There are flies hovering above the dishes in front of me. I grit my teeth and eat it, but at least I have my dreams. As long as I am allowed to study, I will be able to change my fate.

Nevertheless, I am expelled from the school in the end. I want to secretly return to school once the incident has blown over. However, I did not expect that they weren’t prepared to allow me to return at all. They had bribed the school’s security guard to hit me as a deterrence to prevent me from ever returning.

I find the Harper Family, hoping that Richard will at least help me. However, he has his arm around Xyla and they both look like a match made in heaven. He is staring at me with a blank expression and his eyes are void of pity and guilt.

“Break her leg!” a shrill girl’s voice screamed and I felt a sharp pain against my leg.

The Harpers threw me out of their house, but I stubbornly forced myself to stand up from the ground. I turn around to stare at the Harper’s Mansion. Then, I left with a limp while feeling utterly hopeless…

I have nowhere to go and I can’t find a school that is willing to take me in. I can’t enroll into any high school despite showing my report card—a guarantee that I’ll be able to enter Bayside University. I visit all the high schools in Riverdale including the worst one.

They are willing to spend more than 100,000 just for the sake of saving a repeat student’s reputation and that person can barely pass the exam, but they just aren’t willing to provide a seat for me—a student who is capable of securing a spot in Bayside University.

I can’t get into a school or look for a job. When I left the school, the principal secretly gave me a sum of money to help me to leave as far as possible. That was to allow me to leave Bayside City and enroll into a school in another province. However, someone snatched the money from me, not long after I left the school gates.
