My head was in my hands as my tears were falling onto the concrete. I was trying so hard not to cry, but I can't help it. After all this time, I told her. I showed her how I really feel. One would think that I'm supposed to feel relieved. I'm not. I feel much worse. I don't know why. I don't regret it, any of it. I'm proud of myself that I picked up enough courage for it, but somehow, it didn't help me.

I just want this all to end. I'm sick and tired of crying everyday, of feeling like shit every moment of my life. I want to wake up in my bed, to come downstairs to mom making breakfast and dad reading the newspaper, wishing me a good morning. I want to feel normal for once in my lifetime. I want moments loved people have.

"I want my family back..." I sobbed out, as I squeezed my knees tighter.

I just want to die. The little hope I had, it's gone. The nights I spent wishing about a better life, they were a waste of time. Things will never get better. It's just destined to be like that. I'm destined to suffer, to feel pain, so others don't have to. But why? Why is pain always the only solution for me? Every path I take, it ends with me being broken to pieces. And I can't handle it anymore. It's too much. Even I have a limit.

"You are not alone, you know?"

I slowly rose my head, and my eyes stopped at a blue-ish haired guy, who was looking at me intensely while sitting in front of me.

I nodded my head, and stuffed it in my hands again.

"Minchi's sister, huh?" he said

"How do yo-"

"Words travel fast, don't you think?"

For a few seconds I was just confused. Why is he talking to me?

"Go away. Leave me alone, please."

"Why?"

I rose my head again, looking at him angrily.

"I think it's obvious."

"What if I just want to sit here and watch you?"

"Then I will go."

I started getting up, hoping I would find another place to hideout.

"Just stay."

I looked at him questioningly, but he just smiled.

"It's nice to have someone who feels the same way as me. Makes me feel less lonely."

I stared at him, and after a strong debate in my head, I just got closer to him, and sat next to him. At first, there was a long silence, which was kind of comforting. I guess we just understood eachother.

After a few minutes, he spoke.

"She really did that, huh?"

I let out a long sigh, and nodded in response.
