I’m asking this because I think this is why everyone in our neighborhood hates my family. This is why they harassed me and ended up killing my brother.
We are pretty much the only decent and properly groomed children in my area. Kids younger than me have a kid or 2. They are school dropouts with no future. They are drug addicts and so on.
In my family though, we are all going to school and making a name for ourselves.
My father is the breadwinner of the family. He needs to retire now. He has been working too hard. My mother is a housewife. She had to. Taking care of 8 children is not child’s play.
My brother wasn’t the smartest in school, he didn’t have the best job, but he was there for us and he helped us a lot. My older sister is in a Nursing College and I’m in Medical School. My younger sisters are still in high school and they are straight A students.
I practically attended school 7 days a week when I was in high school. It was either that or rot away in my room from depression and hang myself.
In South Africa, matric (12th Grade) results in public government schools are published in newspapers all over the country. So, everyone gets to see how you did.
I worked my ass off to get the best marks. The 100% I got in maths, 90% in physics and all the other A’s I got in all my subjects didn’t just fall out of the sky. I put my all into it. Blood, sweat and tears. I got myself a scholarship and got into Medical school.
I have been through hell. I almost disemboweled myself when I was in first year of university. I’m depressed as fuck. I self harm. I’m fucking damaged. Things haven’t been easy.
Even now, things are not easy. My family is really struggling, especially since my brother died. Since they killed him and took him from us. All the weight is now on my father’s shoulders. He can’t carry the family on his own.
I’m really not boasting here. I just want to understand why they did what they did, what they are still doing to us. There really is no real reason why they started harassing me. There is no real reason for killing my brother.
I guess I’m just looking for a reason. Like someone going through a breakup and asking why. I want to know why. I want to understand why they did this. Why did they kill him? Why are they torturing us like this?
I know only they can answer all these questions. But…
Could it be jealousy? Or just plain hatred towards my family?

Hell yeah i can have you ever seen snapped
well, first of great marks, secondly, yes, jealousy can push people to murder, they are lazy savages only seeing the end result and “saying hur dur why don’t I get a good job ?” , third, doesn’t the police do anything against it ?
Those wild humans are drug addicts for a good reason, they don’t deserve a good life, you do, because you earned it, they didn’t. I know it is hard sometimes with our mess in the head but hey, we got it good in the end.
The more successful you will get, the more jealous they will get. The only thing you can do is go, take as much as you can and go far away from those savages.
I am really sorry for your loss
Vengefulness can. You’re a strong person, stronger than I could ever be.
They are slowly draining me of all the strength that I have. I’m afraid I will soon lose this battle.
No I haven’t, but I’ll be sure to check it out.
Thank you Lacalamity.
You are right. I could actually see that the more years that passed and my studies went further, they hated us more.
A move will be possible once I’ve started working, if they haven’t killed me by then. I’m doing my final year this year.
As for the cops… Haaa, well, can’t really say much there.
