Solo Player Arvin

Chapter 1 - Prologue

This chapter is sort of my notes that I wrote for the main character. But I molded them in such a way that one could understand the personality of the main character and his life back on earth.

FYI if anyone wants to skip this chapter then they can. This chapter does not have any effect on the story... ??

.....................................................

Since his childhood, Arvin was different from normal people. When he was just 1 year old he started speaking. Children of his age would usually start by speaking gibberish and then they would grasp the language. Then they will start speaking. But Arvin was different from them. He started speaking properly since he was just 1 year old.

This happened because he was given an ability that in the scientific world is eidetic memory. Commonly known as photographic memory. It is an ability in which a person can recall an image from memory with high precision for a brief period after seeing it only once. So learning a language was very easy for him. Thus he was able to speak since he was just 1 year old.

People think that having Eidetic memory is a gift. And to some extent it was true. But people who have eidetic memory know better that it more like a curse than a blessing. With such high learning capabilities, a person grows mature early than his age. After all, they grasp knowledge like a sponge absorbs water. That makes them more intelligent than children of their age group.

Arvin was born an orphan. He didn't know what happened to his parents. The first memory that he could ever remember was his orphanage. There he grew up with children of various age groups. All the children of that orphanage used to go same government school. And you know what would happen when an IQ of a 10-year-old boy is compared with a 5-year-old boy….Things get messy.

People around Arvin already had started noticing that the boy's intellect was on another level. Which made children older than him very jealous. After all, he had the attention of every caretaker of the orphanage and teachers of the school. Slowly the other children of the Orphanage started feeling that he was the heavenly genius that came to earth just to mock people that are inferior to him.

When Arvin was young around 5-6 years he had already completed his studies till 6th standard. Which was a very big achievement in itself. Seeing this achievement the principal of the government school sends a letter to his old friend. He told him about Arvin and his genius accomplishments.

That letter was a blessing as well as a curse for Arvin. It was a blessing as after that letter was passed to few people led Arvin to win a scholarship in a very prestigious school in Mumbai. Arvin received a brand new school uniform, brand new shoes, school bags, and many more items.

Brand new items like those pushed the jealousy of the children to a whole new level. And that was the start of the Arvin oppression by bullying…

Kids started bullying him for no proper reason at all. Sometimes someone would tear up all of his notebooks and textbooks. Sometimes he would find his bag flushed down the toilet. Arvin knew about the people that were responsible for these things. But he couldn't do anything about this...

It was not like he was afraid of them. He wanted to retaliate properly. But his retaliation didn't change the fact that at the end of the day he lived with those people. Complaining about his bullies with the higher-ups of the orphanage won't do him any good either. They will just give them a fair warning and they would be done this matter. No one could have saved him from this torment.

It was pretty difficult for him to survive in the orphanage. But he endured and survived. He thought that maybe his new school would be better. But that was just a delusion. In his new school children from the elite societies come and gain knowledge. On the other there he was. A street rat. Who cant even afford a proper uniform.

Surrounded by bullies and thugs, Arvin struggled. But with his intelligence, he was making something out of his life. He was about to be Graduated from the top college of India, he might have been a successful person in the future…

But it seemed like destiny had stored something else for him….
