I have felt sadness, I have been through depression, and I have had that feeling of complete loneliness in the world. So when I looked at the boy sitting in front of me, the one with his head down and bags underneath his empty eyes,... I knew I saw myself not long ago. I offered him my friendship, but he rejected it. I offered him my help, but he rejected that too… and then it came to the point where I couldn’t handle the rejection anymore. Who was this mysterious boy who happened to make my life suddenly seem like it has purpose? Why did he want to reject the one person who could actually help him heal from whatever he was going through? I didn’t understand him, but I was going to make myself known in his world. I didn’t care what happened, but I was the one who was once rejecting everything and it got me nowhere… I didn't realize what I had gotten myself into until it was too late. Vengeance pumped through his blood as I soon realized that there was not only sadness in him, but also anger and hatred. War between a species I didn’t even know existed until I was suddenly thrown into it full force. Now he fights to protect and also to push away not only me, but also his feelings. He just had to realize that I wasn’t going anywhere, that I am rebellious when it comes to rejection.
