****(POV)
The ground is hard, the beatings are harsh, punches and kicks are raining down on me. This is what happens when you are alone in the world. The world doesn't care, it fucks you up.
It especially screws people my age. I'm too old to appear innocent and too young to be considered useful. I can hear their jeers as they happily attack me.
"Take that you rat!"
"Go back to the cave you came from!"
"You worthless scum!"
I simply lay there taking it all. I may be weak, I may be just a simple vagrant as they call it, but I won't give them the satisfaction to see my pain. After a few minutes, they get bored of it. Violence toward someone that doesn't react is no different than beating a rock, it feels pointless.
