(Dri:merz Path / Way - Crows in the Rain)
Forgotten, broken, gathered. Kids understand everything, but when I was a kid, I was so stupid. I thought my parents' bloody knives were toys. There was no love in their eyes when they looked at me. But when I was a kid, I thought love was pain, and I could never change that mindset again.

The silence that descended on the room was truly unsettling. In fact, it was so disturbing that I dared not look at anyone but Lily. It was like the moment I looked at them, they would hurt me just by looking me in the eyes, and I had to run away from those two until I was out of breath. I was shattered and too tired to try to pull myself together anymore.
I was the victim of a natural disaster. I was under the debris of the earthquake that took place in my heart. No one could hear my voice. "Why isn't anyone talking?" said Lily innocently. She wrapped her little arms around his neck while she was in her father's lap, looking at each of us in turn.
