Revolting
“I am deluded aren’t I?” Mochoma was laying on his bed wondering why he was feeling this way.
“Well just because I was sexually attracted to some males ,just because i had some wet dreams involving them, doesn’t mean I am gay right?”
He thought…
“Because that’s just the definition of disgusting isn’t it?”
“Infact such people don’t even exist and it’s pretty much made up but still its not that wrong right?”
After subconsciously realizing his own sexuality Mochoma became highly confused and denied it because it was just not possible in his views.
Mochoma was 17 at that time. With black hair and blue eyes He appeared to be a very cute individual especially in the world of Fautausia. There were no countries or tribes because all the people who inhabited this world lived on a single landform.
“Mochoma collect the broken pearls from the roof. They must be charged by now.”
Miss Alane his mother told him to do so
“Yeah sure”
While making his way to the roof Mochoma caught a glimpse of the blue moon, after all it was the month of blue. The mere sight and the light from it made him forget about what he was thinking a minute ago.
“So the next month will be of the scarlet moon I suppose” Fautausia had one natural illuminating resource and that was the "Moon that changed colors" or most commonly known as Raintows. There was no night or day since the whole world was under the light of that one moon all the time. In addition to this the 7 months made a whole year and this was the 2nd last month, the month of the blue moon. Mochoma brought back the broken pearls which his mother eagerly waited for.
She placed the pearls in a machine that looked like a stapler and the extra power kicked in. And finally the family name “Alzebris” appeared on the photo.
“Beautiful. Isn’t it?”
“Yup it looks gorgeous hmmm
“Mom.... can I ask you something?”
“Yes go on”
“Why is it that boys are supposed to be tough? I mean why are soft and tender hearted males looked down upon? Isn’t courtesy a noble act as well?”
“It’s just the way society works my dear.”
“But isn’t this wrong? I mean bullying boys who are soft and tender hearted. I mean father is a kind individual but why do most people disregard him that much”
“Well do you disregard him?”
“Of course I don’t!” Mochoma answered abruptly without thinking for even a second.
“So that’s enough..”
“Listen carefully Mochoma, It’s the general nature of human beings to look upon the flaws of a person. And since we have trends, anyone who goes against that is considered inferior due to some ridiculous notion of superiority and society”
“But isn’t it emotionally harmful?”
“Not when your closest companions are with you.”
Mochoma went silent after hearing these words…
“The opinion by the general public is not even to be accounted for because they don’t even know the first thing about us in other words the ones whose opinions matter the most are the ones who actually understand and know you..I mean people forget about what they criticse a minute ago and I am glad u have traits that resemble your father”
BOOM! There was a crashing sound of thunder
A light flashed just when Miss Alane finished speaking. It was the "breaking news". The form of news in the world came from the broken pearls as well and depending on loudness and frequency of the sound and the brightness and color of the light one could predict the severity of the news.
And in case of this one. The light was crimson red and the sound was clearly too loud
In other words it was Severe news
After the thunder 3 sentences were written clearly in crimson red in the sky at several locations for the general public to read.
1st An 18 year old student of the “breakers academy” gender male assaulted and murdered.
2nd An 19 year old girl of the “Muchuntos Academy” Murdered and apparently assaulted as well.
3rd The treatment of the latest gay patient ended in a failure resulting in the death of the patient as well
“Well that’s some disturbing news” Miss Alzebris sighed
“Wait gay patient died during some treatment!” Mochoma exclaimed
"Well better be dead then a homo". A neighbor replied. I mean those people for the sake of being different do this stuff. They don’t even deserve to live and they should be thankful that at least we do some effort to put some sense into their damn brains”
“ I would have forced that person to commit suicide if he hadnt died during the treatment” a lady joined in
“Why are they talking like that? Why are they making fun of his death I mean..…”
“Because that’s disgusting Mochoma. Who told him to go aganist the natural order of things?"
His Mom replied abruptly
Mochoma became astonished after hearing this. His body became rigid by the sudden change of tone in his mother s speech
and at that moment Mochoma reflected upon the words of his mother once more
What she told Mochoma was indeed true but the opposite was true as well. If your own closest people disregard you, you will be broke beyond belief
Mochoma went to his room and laid down
“Its Revolting…” he sighed
