Gopal sighed, he doesn't want to let this feeling bother him but he had to admit he felt lonely, like, not fit for this group. Four of them looks pretty perfect, until it came to him.

Since he was a kid, he never care if he being such a loud person. But as he grown up, he suddenly realized that he might be an annoying burden to them. It would be good if he didn't...be friend with them from the start—

He sighed as he stared blankly at his food, for the first time he didn't have any appetite, the loneliness has already filled his stomach(does this even make sense LMAO). His bestfriends noticed his unusal behavior and can't help but to feel odd about this.

"Gopal?" Fang called him out, but he still in his thoughts.
"Aiya! Shouldn't this boy gobble his food right now?" Ying commented, unexpected of this sight.

"Hmm maybe he wants my cookies!" She took out a packet of biscuits which earned protests from them. Boboiboy sighed, he hit Gopal's back, "oi Gopal!" He successfully earned Gopal's attention.

"Huh? What?" Gopal blankly answered.

"What's wrong, pal?" He asked sincerely, Gopal just sighed and forced a smile "nah, nothing." The four of them exchanged looks and put a dissapointed face. "What do you mean by nothing? Clearly, you're not like your usual self." Fang fold his arms while asking him again.

"Uh like what?" Gopal was taken aback, was it obvious of him lost in thoughts?

"You didn't touch your precious food" Ying pointed out his first mistake,

"You seems to be frequently lost in thoughts" Yaya joined stating it,

"And you keep sighing!" And Boboiboy exclaimed the one most unusual.

"See? And you were saying?" Fang sneered to Gopal and he received a nervous laugh from our green boy. "Hahaha, dey. You guys got it wrong! Don't worry to much, I was only thinking about my parents, especially Amma"

"Ohh, you are homesick, I see" Yaya chuckled never expected for this one friend being homesick. "You got it right!" Gopal gave thumbs up to Yaya.

All four of them gave a sigh of relief and grinned to him, "well, next month we will be back home!" said Ying trying to reassure him. "True, we will. I'll head to bed first, good night!" He stood up leaving them with a forced smile.

"Oh.. good night" they waved at him, once he gone, they looked at each other again and they looked at the full plate of Gopal's. "He... Still didn't touch his food too.."

Gopal stopped his walk and looked to the right, seeing the galaxy full of sparkling stars, he smiled "I'm still such a coward. Afraid to express this heavy feeling of loneliness to them."
