I never go outside. Most of my days are spent inside, not with any friends. It's not like I have a lot of friends to go out with anyway. I stay inside playing video games, watching movies on Netflix, amongst other things. I didn't do this out of sadness or anything. I just didn't do anything else. One day, my mom barged in.
"Leave", she said. "What?"
"Leave this house" "No"

"You're 16, you're supposed to be enjoying your childhood. You're supposed to be going out with your friends and kissing boys"
"Gross"
"It's not gross"
"Yes it is"
"No, it's not"
"Fine, I'll become an extroverted slut"
"Why don't you watch a movie. You can go to the theatres, maybe meet some people"
"No"
"You have to! Or no phone for a month" "Fine"

I went to the theatres.
I picked a movie.
I went in and no one was there.
I guess no one wants to see this movie, I thought to myself.
It was even better.
I didn't want to meet people.
Some girls my age came in.
I wanted to say Hi.
"Hi", I said. They pulled out their guns and shot me.
