-I stared at the screen of my laptop, specifically the message from an anonymous person, yet I didn't bother replying since it might be another chain message.
Taking my eyes off the laptop screen, they drift off to the other side of my room. And there it was, a collage of my mom and dad's wedding memories. The tragic story of their love and how my mom passed would always send chills to the back of my spine and bring tears to my eyes hoping I could wake up from this dream. But this isn't a dream.
For so long, I've been thinking of opening up a blog in honor of my mom's first tragic love, which was my dad, and now that she's gone, I will fulfill that promise.
My gaze drifted back to the screen before I decided to work on my blog. I thought of the enchanting love stories and those fairy tales my mom told me once before.
What is love?
I started with that question, since I, myself, never experienced commitment. Amidst typing the needed text, another message popped out and dragged me out of my reverie.

Yet I paid no heed to the still unknown message before continuing what I had to do and that is to finish this update.
What is love?
They say love is all about commitment. Love is all about sacrifice. Love is all about finding that someone to hold your hand 'till your gray and old. I honestly don't know what love is all about, but for me, love is all about finding your best friend. The best friend who would laugh with you. A best friend who would lend you a hand. A best friend that would still choose you despite of all the flaws. A best friend who loves you unconditionally. That is my meaning of love.

Those words were lies. Who am I kidding? A person like me would find true love by just staying at home? I can't go out because of this phobia; I can't do what most of the teenagers could do. I am trapped in this body and I can't do anything about it. I am not ready to take a leap or peek to the outside world.

Fergus Collen IV: The bomb you just dropped, delivered such a great message. Good job :))
The same stranger messaged me again and I stare at it with confusion. He comments as if he is my mentor and adviser. Who is this stranger?

The next few days seemed to have passed like a blur with the same stranger still annoying the life out of me. These messages were either saying "hello" or were comments about how the content of my blog astounded him. Annoyed by his presence, I decided to answer a few of his questions to stop him from annoying me ever again.
