Going back to school after a year? I just don't know what to expect
Introducing myself like I did earlier is actually normal for me to do, except the "I'm deaf part"
Even for me, I still can't believe it but, sadly I have to accept the fact that it's almost gone, my hearing that is
For college, I have to choose something else other than what my parents have planned
They wanted me to be like them, a surgeon and I don't think a deaf person should be one
I mean, how could I operate other's if I can't even hear myself, it's just ridiculous
I don't need any help as for finding my classrooms but, news spread like wildfire
I bet everybody in this school will know my condition at the end of the day and after a week everyone in their family will know it too
All of the teachers have been notified about my condition last week and I don't like the look of pity they are giving my way
After lunch I came earlier to my next class but, it was a bad idea to do so
Students started to circle around me on my chosen chair and bombarded me with questions
I've always been aloof from people, I just couldn't humor them, they drain so much energy away from my body
I can't understand them because they are talking at the same time so, I just lowered my head to look at my notebook, reading their lips is impossible anyway
But, one of the voices is loud enough to reach my ears saying
"You're still rude even after being deaf, just go and die"
