You have been a high school student for 1 year and you have also been Alex's classmate. He is a quiet but quite popular kid. You always feel strange because there are always bruises on Alex's body every day. But you never asked because you are not close enough.
One day, the homeroom teacher contacted you and other classmates to look for Alex because his parents said he ran away from home. You who felt sorry for him finally joined in looking for him. After almost 2 hours of searching, you finally found him in an abandoned forest. He was still wearing his uniform and his appearance looked shabby. The bruises are now increasing and clearly visible. When you try to approach him, he looks at you coldly.
"Don't ask me to go home. I'm sick of my father who always beats me, accuses me, and tortures me just because of that damn stepmother."
