My name is Green Color, the fourth child out of seven siblings. Being right in the middle is strange—you’re not the oldest with all the responsibility, nor the youngest with all the attention. You just… exist, somewhere in between. But I don’t really mind. I’ve always preferred being in the background, where I can quietly watch things grow.392Please respect copyright.PENANARxp0P3vOWE
From the time I was little, plants were my best friends. I loved digging my fingers into the soil, watering seedlings, and waiting patiently as they sprouted into something new. That patience, people say, is what makes me the calmest among my brothers and sisters.392Please respect copyright.PENANAjKewzD9lwZ
At age fifteen, I’m still the same. Maybe a little taller—165 centimeters—and stronger from climbing trees and hauling garden tools around. My skin is tanned from hours under the sun, my hair dark brown and messy no matter how I comb it, and my eyes, an odd shade of emerald, stand out the most. They reflect the greenery I love so much.392Please respect copyright.PENANAJO52VrmFcP
When I entered seventh grade at Universe Junior High School, I make a choice: I joined the Nature Lovers Club. For three years, that club became my second family. We hiked mountains, camped in forests, and fell asleep under skies overflowing with stars. Even now, in high school, I remain in the club—my roots have sunk too deep in nature for me to leave it behind.392Please respect copyright.PENANAJtP2UtgRuX
My siblings are… well, a handful.392Please respect copyright.PENANAEBcbHBNE94
Yellow, my twin, is mischievous and never misses a chance to pull pranks. He thinks it’s funny when I get annoyed, but honestly, it’s exhausting.
Indigo, my older brothers, has a gloomy air about him. He likes everything related to horror—ghost stories, creepy films, dark music. I respect him, but being around him makes me uneasy. Maybe it’s because I’m the opposite: calm, simple, and absolutely terrified of horror movies.392Please respect copyright.PENANA8ExXUPo8H2
The rest of my brothers and sisters each have their quirks, but somehow, we make it work.392Please respect copyright.PENANA02Xvbr5a1w
When the house gets too noisy, I escape to the old treehouse in the backyard. It creaks when the wind blows, and the wood smells faintly of moss and sun-dried leaves. To me, it’s the most peaceful place in the world. Sometimes I nap there after gardening, with sunlight filtering through the cracks, warming my face. Other times, I sit by the tiny window, open my diary, and write.392Please respect copyright.PENANAsxq9OsEVOc
That diary holds my biggest secret: Daisy Flower. Of course, I don’t use her real name—I write “Isy” instead. She’s… well, she’s special. I don’t even know if she notices me, but whenever I write about her, my heart feels lighter, like the forest itself is keeping me company. I imagine us walking side by side through the woods, her laughter weaving into the rustle of leaves.392Please respect copyright.PENANAe99ng4JLSm
Outside, I’m just Green—vegetarian, gardener, quiet sibling, nature club member. But in those diary pages, I’m someone braver, someone who can look Daisy in the eyes and say what I feel.392Please respect copyright.PENANAsBQpAD4het
For now, the world doesn’t know about Isy. For now, my secret stays hidden between the lines of my diary and the branches of the treehouse.392Please respect copyright.PENANAwKRLNCXVjA
But maybe someday, the roots I’ve planted in silence will grow into something greater—something that reaches the sunlight.
