Chapter 6 - Chapter 6 : The New Normal

The day started of normal a cold wind with icicles trying to penetrate through some unfortunate victim's body, the ground cracking whenever somebody walked and even through these harsh and unforgiving conditions Xasxquar still had a job to do, a job where everybody, including the person who gave Xasxquar the job hated him, they all treated him like he was some kind of degenerate, all that just because he was an Qualit. 

Everything was unfair and all they had to say was "man up imbecile" not even the students were kind, even though he treated everyone equally and very kindly, he was discriminated shown no respect what-so-ever and even if he helped them all they would say was "ugh a Qualit, now I am stained with degeneracy", and if he made a would mistake, it would be over for him, they would complain to the mersgov (the principal), and get him severely scolded, and they had fun in doing that, they had fun in making a twenty-six year old man suffer every single day just because he was a low class Qualit, sometimes they would even throw stuff at him in lectures, and when he decided to complain he would be scolded, and be threatened of being fired every single time. But this one particular day, there was no gossiping, no being badly treated, just pure looks, everyone was staring at him, Xasxquar, being in his sleepy face was confused and said, "What y'all looking at ? Nobody usually wants to see my sleepy face, don't they?''. There was an Awkward silence. "Professor, what's your name?" Asked a random student, no, it was Sheila, the most arrogant student. Xasxquar realized if he had said his real name, he would be recognized, so he made up a name on the spot and said, "Arrack, Arrack is my name. Anyone got a problem with that? Said Xasxquar while realizing he had forgotten to wear his disguise, which was a horrible mistake. But Xasxquar lied, saying "ohh, I get it, you're looking at my Xasxquar disguise !, This is for the nerd party series 12. The nerd party lie/excuse worked, but barely; rumors quickly started spreading like wildfires. And for once, all the mocking became useful, because everyone was mocking Xasxquar, calling him names like: "Arrack the nerdiest" or "The greatest Xasxquar copycat" and anyone who stuck with him also joined the mocking group, which was funny, he never wanted to be mocked, but now it's what's helping him. 

He told all this to his mother, which she laughed so hard she started crying a little, Xasxquar seeing his mother laugh was also very surprised since he had never in his Twenty-six years of life had seen his mother laugh so uncontrollably let alone even smirk or giggle, for once felt a burden getting off his chest, the burden which he had been carrying around his entire life, the moment of satisfaction where he made his mother happy. However, she pampered him; she never truly gave him a sliver of her smile, making him search for pleasure in more requests. Still, now due to his job, he was too far away to see her laugh, he, now a little sad, still didn't change the fact that he had to give the students a lecture, which he hated, but he was, no, he had to get slowly used to this normal, this new normal.
