The World Today
Normally us mortals have likes and dislikes. Things that we prefer and do not. Us as an individual has their own right to say those things out loud. But what if there came to a conclusion wherein you are so used to doing things that you hate, you start liking them? Where all the things that you hate to do, you need to do? It's definitely not peer pressure. Not the majority of the audience's preference but rather as orders from a higher-up. Orders that you now you will dislike it but because that person is your higher-up, and a respected one at that, you'd have to feign enthusiasm just so that the weight on your shoulders lifts up a bit.
Then there are times where their calculating eyes never leave you. And the most humiliating thing is when making a mistake in front of them and they're not correcting your errors. As a person give with the most responsibilities and high expectations, there would always be a sense of pride to now that people have the knowledge that you do your best. Then again, their orders always seem to be pulling down your confidence. Anxiety for the failure of the task, refusing or sometimes even eating your mentality from the inside and out. Their stony stares burn through the back of your head and you know that you're being evaluated for each and every actions done.
Simple f you don't obey you're a bad child. If you obey, you will earn their trust and soon use them for your own resources. Everything comes with a price doesn't it? Obey. Obey and don't talk back, don't comment, don't bring up or show any emotions, just act like their loyal robot who serves their every need until the society itself declares that you are finally legal of age. Maybe then you can be free. Doing all the things you want. But then again, what is a loyal robot without it's master
That's why I've come to love the things I've despised the most.
