Born To Be Forsaken

The pain dulls, fading into numbness, as my body sinks deeper into the freezing grip of the sea. No one’s coming for me. No one ever has. Not a single soul—not even the ones who should have loved me. Especially not them.



As the dark waters swallow me whole, a single truth cuts through the cold: this wretched life of mine… it’s finally ending.



Then come the memories—those vicious, rotting fragments I’ve tried so hard to bury. They claw their way back, sharp and merciless.



*"Why were you even born? If I’d just killed you the moment you came into this world, our lives would’ve been peaceful."*



*"You’re going abroad. It’s the only way to protect the company’s reputation. I don’t care what you want. This isn’t a choice."*



*"Why do you hate me, Meimei? I always saw you as my sweet little sister. I never hurt you. So why… why would you do this?"*



*"If I ever see you near Ningning again—hell, if I even see your shadow—I swear to God, I’ll kill you myself and feed your corpse to the dogs. You hear me? You’re a monster. A monster in human skin."*



*"Father, send this filthy bitch away. Abroad. I don’t want Ningning to suffer because of her!"*



Their voices echo in my skull like screams trapped in an empty hall. I’m suffocating—not from the water, but from everything they said… everything they never let me forget.



And yet, maybe down here, in this silence… I can finally disappear.
