To be a human means to be good, to follow morals. At least it's how it was told since the beginning. Biologically everyone belongs to the same kind, to the human kind although we are divided by status, we are divided by borders, we are divided by morals.
The weather was warm, the breeze was creating a pleasant sound. Someone was playing on a guitar outside. Very likely they were trying to perform for money.
The most visible building in this area was a huge tenement where 16 year old teenagers who were about to attend the test were living with their families. Each year people about to attend the test were living in the same building for a few months, they've said it's easier to keep them togehter before and after the test.
Guitar's lively music was hearable from a windowsill on which a girl was sitting. She had a collarbone-length brown hair and a hairpin with a black butterfly in it.

- Déjà vu again - she said to herself - How many times I've already heard about reincarnation. Dying and getting birth again while having memories from the previous life does seem like an advantage.

Although sometimes our life doesn't belong to us, we don't have a will to use the life we got.
Steps become hearable. Louder and louder. The girl got off the windowsill and closed the window. She looked around to make sure that her room is in a decent state and after confirming it she smiled to herself and waited for her aunt to come.
