The small bedroom was filled with the sounds of small sniffles and coughs while Joey tried to cry himself to sleep.

Joey reached his hand onto his bedside table grabbing a small orange bottle before popping a pill into his mouth and letting it dissolve on his tongue.

He pulled the covers above his head, ruffling his brown hair as he gently closed his teary eyes.

The drops- resembling tears fell from his eyes slowly, then sliding down his cheek and leaking onto the pillows leaving stains in their path.

Under the sheets, small whispers left Joey's mouth along with silent sobs.

"Why am I- like this?" Joey cried to himself while wiping his eyes.

"Why couldn't I be normal?"

Silence and darkness surrounded the young boy making him feel even more upset.

He remained under the thin fabric the whole night while crying uncontrollably.

Joey slowly fell asleep with the tears in his eyes and the remains of the salty liquid on his cheeks.
