Part 2: Orphanage in Milan: My Experience
--- In Italy, there's a legend that when a child loses a tooth, if they put it under their pillow before bed, a mouse (or the tooth fairy, depending on the region) will come during the night, take the tooth, and leave money in exchange. I vividly remember the day I lost my first tooth. The caregiver on duty suggested I place it under my pillow and told me the story of the mouse, also recommending that I write down if I had any special wishes. I felt excited and a bit scared at the idea of a mouse coming at night to take my tooth and leave me money. I wondered: why would it give me money for a tooth? And what did it do with the tooth anyway? I found no answers and decided to ignore those questions. Instead, I wrote a note asking if the mouse could leave me enough money to buy a new toy car at the market. I phrased it as a question: "Could you leave me 1000 lire for a new toy car?", or something like that.

YOUNG AMERICANS (Ж). Content Warning.
Tsunamis of iridescent green pain cascade across my temporal lobe, temporarily drowning out my habitual thought processes. I attempt to drive my new, old-fashioned, expensive, sparkling turquoise car in spite of the crippling pain, yet wisely decide that this would be tantamount to suicide, so I park it near some cheap live music venue.

Secret Confession #6. Content Warning.
But during college, I shared an apartment with a girl named Mia. We were taking the same course, and thus we had late-night study sessions plus similar experiences. Mia was one of those natural simpletons. She had a boyfriend, and from what I could gather, really seemed to be content about every angle of her life. She was academically very brilliant, always topping her class, and often she discussed freely with her classmates her affair with her boyfriend and even gave some intimate details of their life together.

The Web of Confessions
In a small, close-knit town named Maranville, life thrived on the surface like any other community. The children laughed in the parks, elders exchanged pleasantries by the local market, and the scent of freshly baked bread lingered in the air. The people were united by their shared traditions and daily routines, creating a seemingly perfect image of unity. Yet, beneath this surface, each soul carried a secret, a hidden burden they dared not reveal.

Righteous in a corrupt world
The world is a corrupt place and it's only getting worse to the extent where corruption is steadily becoming the norm. We’ve gotten to the point where we even question what the truth is anymore. The very foundations of what makes us humans are no longer regarded as solid, you’ve got people wondering what a woman is, whether the realities we’ve always known even exist anymore.

The Art of Not Being Ok
Being in my 20s is hard. But what’s harder is the fact that I must struggle with life to get what I want. No, let me rephrase that…I mean not getting what I NEED. If I knew where I was headed in life, I should’ve started getting myself together a long time ago. You see it’s the process of “getting to where you got to go”. That kind of struggle. I have been through the worst over 4 years with a guy who simply isn’t a man but acts like a hormonal teenage boy. But hold on…I’m getting way ahead of myself on that part.

Where are you? This isn't for me
Twiddling my fingers, I stare out the window, feeling the creeping tendrils of anxiety slowly wrapping themselves around my heart. It's not just a sensation in my mind; it pulses through me, filling every beat of my heart. The rhythmic thumping pounds in my ears: thump... thump... thump. The music playing in the background, once a comfort, now fades into an indistinct hum. The lyrics, once filled with meaning, now only stir the emotions I’ve tried so desperately to suppress. I am scared—terrified—of never knowing who you are. I wonder, are you someone I already know, someone I talk to every day, or are you miles away, a distant soul I’ve yet to meet? These questions plague my mind, gnawing at my sense of purpose, my direction. I keep questioning whether this life, this path I’m on, is meant for you just as much as I question if it’s truly meant for me.
