At the station, where the noise of bus honking and hurried footsteps echoed around, a quiet, introverted boy stood by himself. He had his headphones on, pretending to be lost in music, but in reality, his mind was racing with thoughts. Crowds weren’t his thing, and the idea of meeting new people made his chest tighten with anxiety.

As the bus arrived, the doors slid open, and he found a corner seat by the window, hoping to remain unnoticed. But just as the bus was about to leave, another boy, around his age, slid into the seat next to him.

This boy was different—confident, with a smile that seemed to light up the dull bus. The introverted boy felt a jolt of nervousness. He wasn’t sure if it was because of the boy's sudden presence or the way he seemed to effortlessly draw people in.

"Hi" the new boy greeted, his voice warm. The introverted boy nodded, barely audible in his response. They sat in silence for a while, the only sound being the people's steps.  The
introverted boy was hyper-aware of the distance between them, his mind racing with worries about what the other boy might think of him. He wished he could just disappear into the seat.
Noticing the introverted boy's discomfort, the
other boy leaned back and spoke, "You know, life's too short to be spent worrying about what others think. I used to be like you, afraid to talk, afraid to open up. But then I realized that the world is full of people who are just waiting for a chance to connect with someone else."
The introverted boy looked at him, unsure of what
to say. "It's not that easy" he finally mumbled.
"No, it's not," the other boy agreed,

"But it's worth it, the more you step out of your comfort zone, the more you'll see how much life has to offer. I know it's scary, but staying in that shell won't help you grow. You have to take risks, talk to people, explore the world. You never know who you'll meet or what you'll discover about yourself."
As the bus slowed down, approaching the next station, the introverted boy felt something shift inside him. He had always been content with his quiet life, but now, a spark of curiosity and courage began to take hold. Maybe he didn't have to change overnight, but he could start small-one step at a time.

The bus stopped, and the confident boy stood up, ready to get off. He turned to the introverted boy
and smiled, "Take care. Remember, it's okay to be afraid, but don't let it hold you back." Before he left, he looked at the introverted boy's ID Card and said, "Oh! Dai? If fate wants us to meet again, we surely will." The introverted boy watched as the doors closed and the bus started moving again.

The seat next to him was empty now, but something had changed. He felt a strange sense of hope, a desire to see more, do more, and maybe even meet more people like the boy he'd just spoken to.
As the train continued on its journey, the introverted boy gazed out of the window, thinking about the road ahead. He didn't know where it
would lead, but for the first time in a long while, he was excited to find out.

And so, at the next stop, he stood up, gathered his things, and stepped out of the train, ready to explore life beyond the station.
