I started reading a manga online few months ago. It was new, i only finish reading it today. The title is "Bitter Virgin". You can read it for free at this website: http://www.onemanga.com/. Like the name suggested it is a very very tragic story. I nearly cried reading some part of the manga. It kind of stick to my mind so badly that i can’t even sleep right now. It make me think of a lot of things in life.

The story is about a guy, Daisuke who found out a terrible secret about his female classmate, Hinako. When Hinako was in junior high, she was repeatedly raped by her step father, got pregnant and had an abortion. However, her mother refused to believe her, and she got pregnant again. This time, she wouldn’t be able to give birth again in the future due to her injuries. She persevered and managed to give birth to a boy. However, the child was given for adoption. She never had the chance to see her son.

"They say things like when you fall in love, you see the world in a rose colour, those are huge lies"

After the incident, Hinako is very afraid of men. Daisuke started to help Hinako and saved her a few times. As the story progress, they started falling in love to each other. But due to some reasons, they can’t admit it and be together(read it yourself if you want to find out).

"If this is god’s idea of prank,then he’s incompetent, bumbling and malicious. I will not forgive him. I can not forgive him. I know no way to forgive him. You should just die, god…."

In book 3, Daisuke’s sister came into the story. She gave birth to a child. Something happened. Just as everything was starting to turn good, things like this just have to happen. The first time i read this part, my eyes are filled with tears. From the quote above, u noe it’s something very bad, but i don’t want to be spoilers, not telling. Luckily my housemates were not in due to the holidays. Otherwise, they’ll probably be laughing like mad. Laugh if u want, i may appear to be the agrresive and cruel type. But the truth is i’m not. I’m emotional and fragile. That explains my mood swings.

"Please help her. The one who needs you the most isn’t me…It’s her"

In the final book 4, things got complicated. So Hinako, uttered her secret accidently to Daisuke’s sister.Daisuke admitted to Hinako he knew her secret. She couldn’t take the fact and decided to transfer to another school. However, this time finally the story took another turn. I like the ending, uncertainties and challenges of the future that awaits them…..

The story of this manga may not be real. But such event are happening around the world. Those kind of man, no, THEY DON’T DESERVE TO BE CALLED MAN. They are an insult to other guys, scums that don’t deserve any category on Earth. Well, i may not call myself a good man(i have dark and twisted thoughts before), but to do such a thing is beyond my sanity to have a grip on it. Yes, i thought of bad things, i’m a guy after all. But come to realise,i can’t do it. I can’t imagine if i’m in such a situation, what will i do?
