You said to yourself that you don't need anyone. You said that you can handle being alone until you found yourself in a sea of people. You saw a group of friends walking by and laughing with each other, sharing inside jokes that they only knew. You saw a family eating together at a nearby restaurant and they were smiling at each other, they might not be a perfect family but they were still with each other. You saw a boy and a girl sitting by the bench near the bay and watching the sun set. The girl put her head onto the boy's shoulder and he put his arm around her. Now, as you lay on your bed wondering what is happening, you thought you can handle yourself. Suddenly, you feel so alone inside these four walls. Suddenly, you see a version of yourself in your mind sitting all alone in a bench sipping your favourite beverage looking at the people who pass by and thinking what could possibly went wrong again and again.
