I didn't understand why this mattered. It's been months since that. It's all anyone wants to talk about. No one even asked if I was okay. They just moved on.

But, then again, this is what I get.

"Keith, are you listening?"

I looked at Allura, with a pained looked and quickly relaxed my face. I didn't want to worry them, "No, sorry. What did you say?"

"I said, you need to get yourself together. You're a mess. I understand what you went through was traumatic, but Romelle and I had to deal with the same thing. You have to push through and be an adult." Allura said, sighing.

I felt a pinch of anger in my chest, I sighed, "Yeah, sure."

Allura's expression softened, "Besides, you have to face the fact that life goes on and we can't do anything to stop it. I understand your hurt and recovering- but sometimes you gotta rub some dirt in it and move on. Lotor isn't laying around thinking about how he wronged us, he's probably stalking another campus and preying on other young adults that were like us."

I sighed, "I just wish we would've won the case."

Allura groaned, "Well, he's an entitled male with money. Of course we wouldn't win against him."

I felt myself frown, this was unfair. Lotor was a stuck up guy who targets people who he knows he can win against. Then again, Allura and Romelle were so strong. They dealt with the shared trauma and are now happy together.

Romelle got a phone call, she spoke on the phone for a while, "Allura and I gotta go. Please stay in touch, Keith. You're our friend. We care about you."

They left after that, leaving me to think about the conversation we just had. I had no idea what to think. Well, I did and it was simply envy.

I didn't understand why I had to feel so cut off from the rest of the world. I care about my friends but I feel like a weight.

I sighed and headed back to my apartment.
