I'm starting to feel lonely. People are afraid to look into my eyes. Because whenever they look at me, I'll either be glaring at them or my eyes will be emotionless. Apparently, it is too much for them to take in.

She's gone for four days now, but who's counting?

I still remember the day before she left. We were on our way to our extra class when we saw her mum walking pass us. We stopped her and asked "Why was she in school?"

"We're leaving tomorrow."

"We're leaving tomorrow."

"We're leaving tomorrow."

Those were the words which I could only hear. I wanted to have an emotional break down there and then. But I can't, cause no one knew. No one knew that she was leaving. 

I looked over at the both of them. I can't tell what she's thinking. She's smiling a little. I can't tell if it's real or forced. What's happening to me?

I could usually tell what she's thinking just by looking at her. We were like twins born 2 months apart. People always say that we have a telepathic way of communicating. And I believed it. Cause we could communicate literally just by looking into each others eyes. But now, I feel lost, I don't know a single thing of what she's thinking.

"Hey mum, we have an extra class to go to now," she said. That was when I was 'awoken' from my day dream.

I forced a smile at her mum, and followed her to the class while she waved goodbye to her mum.

The class ended in an hour an a half but it felt like ten minutes. These were the last minutes that I could spend with her.

We waited in front of the school gate for her mum to come pick her up.

She sent a smile in my direction while she was walking to her mum's car.

I wanted to cry again, but I can't.

Again, someone passed by me. This time I forced a smile at the person. It was clearly written on her face that she was shock with my expression.
