10Almond
General Fiction杏仁
(korean) Sun Yuanping
Everyone has a set of structures in their head, which are about the same size and shape as almonds, so they are called "amygdala." When receiving external stimulation, the "amygdala" will light up red and react differently, making us feel joy, disgust, uneasiness or fear. But my "amygdala" seems to be broken, and it does not respond at all to any stimulation. The doctor said this is "alexithymia" "Obstacle". For me, happiness and sadness are just abstract concepts; emotions and empathy are just vague typography. But fortunately, I have my mother and grandma, and my life is not bad. Until that Christmas. First my mother and grandma, and then three testers The passers-by and a policeman who tried to stop me, and finally the man, six died and one was injured. The man's suicide note read, "Today, anyone who smiles will leave with me." My grandmother died to protect me, and my mother became a vegetative state, and I was just silent. I watched all this happen in front of my eyes without even a single tear in return. From that day on, no one called me a "cute monster" like my grandma. I became a real "monster" in the eyes of others, until I met another monster.
