Chapter 1
CHILD
What happens when a child grows up believing that there is something wrong with him?
He tries to fight.
He fails.
He tries again.
He fails again.
Until eventually, surviving becomes more important than remaining himself.
Inside him are three voices.
Child—the part that was innocent, frightened, and never understood why the world demanded so much from him.
Past—the one who remembers everything, carries the pain, and tries to understand what happened.
And Present—the one created to be strong.
Present was never meant to exist for himself.
He was an act.
An act created to face the outside world when Past could no longer do it.
But what happens when the act becomes real?
What happens when the protector becomes lost?
What happens when the person you created to save yourself begins to hate the world that created him?
CHILD is a psychological journey through innocence, pain, identity, anger, protection, and the frightening distance between who we were and who we had to become.
And eventually, Child must confront the two people he became.
