So far, things have been great for me. It wasn't hard for me to get along with these new people I'm hanging out with. This is new to me so I'm still kind of guessing on what to do. But they made me feel like I belong to their circle of friends even though we had all just met.

I guess, thanks to Lexie for initiating the first move to me. But on the other hand, I know I had to do the same thing. I wouldn't be able to have fun if I'm just gonna follow their rules and what they would suggest. I need to step up and I feel like they are the kind of people who would listen to what I would suggest. I might be right or wrong, I'm still gonna take the chance.

One of Lexie's friends listed out all the places and stuff we could all do. I look at it and thought we might have the same targeted locations. When I booked myself to Bali, I don't have an idea where to go. I just went searching up online and look at all the possible places that may be suitable for my travel.

At that time, I was thinking I could still be traveling alone, but it all changes now.

They have plans on going to the famous tourist destinations around Bali. Even going to the beaches is part of it and I just agreed to it since I wanna experience it for myself. 

One of the famous temples we have a plan of visiting is the Pura Lempuyang. If I'm going to search Bali on Instagram, most of the images that are gonna show up is a photo from this place. Though when we get there, there was a long line just to get one to five minutes to give way for the next in line.

We all decided then to just get back tomorrow morning.  Getting there early would make us some time to have a moment there. If we're just gonna wait in line, it's gonna take us an hour or more just to have a five-minute photo there so we left and head to our next destination.

"So, why are you really doing this?" Lexie asked. "I mean, why did you decide to travel alone? Are you really traveling alone for most of your travels?"

I shook my head. "No... no. This is the first time."

"Wow! That's surprising. You're brave for doing this. Some people I know would first try local travel than an international one. But you're good with us. You'll have fun. I promise that."

"You know what, I have an idea where to go."

When I said that, Lexie called the others and all listened to what I will say.

"Let's go explore abandoned places..."

And I can all their faces that are a bit strange for me. And then I felt this huge something inside my chest because I can feel their rejection with the looks they are giving to me and I hated that feeling.

Oh, shoot. I think I made a bad decision.
