{Authors Note: the song nobody by mitski will be used in this chapter}
The sun was cooking my skin, I was sitting on a bench admiring the flower fields in our garden. I couldn't get the dream I had last night out of my head. It's the first time I have a dream like that. For the first time in my 19 years of life, I had a dream like that.

I don't remember everything about it, I do remember feeling safe though. Also, the soft lips and the hands which carefully moved around my body.

I picked up my guitar, it was resting next to me. I strummed some chords, getting prepared to play my favorite song.

My God, I'm so lonely
So I open the window
To hear sounds of people
To hear sounds of people

The world around me turned quiet. The only thing I could hear around me were the bees, fluttering by the flowers.

Venus, planet of love
Was destroyed by global warming
Did its people want too much too?
Did its people want too much?

Whenever I play the guitar I feel like all my worries go away, but this time it was different.

And I don't want your pity
I just want somebody near me

All I could think of was the man in the mask.

Guess I'm a coward
I just want to feel alright

Clay.

And I know no one will save me
I just need someone to kiss
Give me one good honest kiss
And I'll be alright

Why did I enjoy dancing with him so much? Did I want a kiss from him?

Nobody, nobody, nobody
Nobody, nobody

No. I just met him.

Ooh, nobody, nobody, nobody

Is it weird feeling this towards a stranger?

I've been big and small
And big and small
And big and small again
And still nobody wants me
Still nobody wants me

I've never had a special someone, my parents have always been overprotective of me.

And I know no one will save me
I'm just asking for a kiss
Give me one good movie kiss
And I'll be alright

Damn, I really want a kiss.

Nobody, nobody, nobody
Nobody, nobody
Ooh, nobody, nobody
Nobody, nobody, nobody
Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody

I slowly started to come back to the present.

Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody
Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody
Nobody, nobody
Nobody, nobody, no

"Wow, you're a great singer." My mom said, she was standing behind me the whole time. Sometimes I wonder if she can read my thoughts. I hope not. "Who would you dedicate that song to?"

"Uh, I don't know."

"I hope it's not a girl." She raised her eyebrows and her smile lit up. Why is it always a girl? Why can't it be someone else?

"No, it's not for a girl." I fake laughed.

"Then?"

"I sing for myself." I actually do that most of the time, I don't know what happened to me.
