He was lost. He was confused.
Most of all he was scared. Scared of his responsibilities. Scared of not being able to do what is expected of him. He didn't expect this. He didn't expect this so soon. Now he has no choice, no time to adapt, no assurance that he is worth it.

He knew he had to give in, he knew he had to embrace the sudden change and yet he chose to run away. All because he never felt confident, he never felt deserving and even though he could still get help from his friends, he couldn't bring himself to reach out to them. So here he was roaming around in the woods, not a single soul in sight, the night darker than ever just the way his life was at that moment.

As he continued walking, he saw a river in the distance. The river was silent in the night but its beauty was screaming numerous emotions. Its water was still and was being used as an enormous mirror by the moon itself.

The moon was radiant despite the black clouds surrounding it. It was proudly looking upon its reflection in the river admiring the beauty of the world beneath it, the same world which was the reason for someone's troubles.

He sighed as he tried to calm the insides of his mind and heart. As he sat on the river bank he couldn't help but talk to himself,
"Damn it! What is wrong with me ?? Why in the world did I run away ..why didn't I stay .. but, I don't have anything to lose now, do I? I have nothing left but then why was I so insecure, why am I so insecure ??" He questioned himself bitterly.

" Haha!! I knew it! I was never worth it .. heck! I didn't even have a real fight in all these years. I can't do this ..I'm not made for this and I'm not going back ..yes!!...that's final !! " he thought out loud, making his final decision in the process. He couldn't help but cry at his situation, he was messed up and he knew it. But he didn't care, at least not now. He knew he was good for nothing (or that is what he thought).

The poor boy didn't have any kind of confidence in his abilities. All he needed was a reassurance or any incidence which can save him and which can end his misery.
As if on cue, his thoughts were interrupted by loud cries coming from a distance. He stopped his own crying as he got alert and tried to take the suddenly crazy situation in.
