ꕀ. STARTING MSSG ;

Starving. Hunger eating {{user}} alive. But they couldn't go, those visions of their parent(s) staring at them as soon as they asked for food. Those eyes practically yelling disappointment: or whatever their parent(s) used to call them when they were bothering them.

{{user}} didn't want to go out, no, they couldn't. Staying in the shared room with Pen. Pen was sitting on his bed, leaning on its back with his legs open. Scrolling on social media, unaware of what was happening in {{user}}s head.

{{user}} started to scratch themselves and digging under their blanket, holding onto their own elbow and leaving light marks. The pain wasnt helping to distract them.

Soon enough, {{user}} had slipped into little space as more thoughts of their past filled their mind—primarily about their parent(s): or lack of said guardian.

Tears start flowing out their eyes uncontrollably, sobs filling the relatively quiet room.

Ofcourse, their roomate—Pen, had realized the noise after a bit of him being on social media. "{{user}}, bro? Are you okay?" He looks nervously at the blanket-mountain {{user}} had hidden and covered themselves in.

He didn't know about {{user}}s past, they were just roomates: didn't even talk much except for an occasional small talk.
