1 Everyone left one by one.

"Hey hey! Are you crying?" the child in front of her asked her curiously.

"Ha ha! Nope ~!" she replied laughingly.

"But-but you are crying. You're lying, aren't you?" the kid said with a pouting face.

"Noo~? why're you saying that?" she asked the child while laughing.

A smile that could hide her pain; She doesn't want to show her pains to others. As long as she is smiling, everything is fine.

"You have gotta be kidding me, Nikki! Why are you chatting with a kid so casually? Let's go, we will be late for the exam." the person said seriously while interrupting their conversation.

There is an exam today and they have to attend. But they are already late for the exam while wandering around aimlessly.

"Is your name mikky? It's my name too~!" the child said happily.

"No; Her name is Nikki, it's not Mikky. Whatever kid, goodbye. We have to go." said the person while walking fast. Nikki waved her hand at the kid and said ''Goodbye'' with a soft smile.

She seemed calm as if there was nothing to worry about.

Her mood suddenly changed when she looked at the side of the road. Her eyes suddenly became lifeless as if she had lost her soul. She was following her friend all this time, she stopped walking and froze.

Her friend realized and looked back.

"What's wrong with you? What's up with that look in your face?" her friend asked her eagerly.

She turned to her friend.

"Nah, it's nothing." she replied and smiled as if she had found her soul again.

--- ---

Her friend turned to the front and started walking again.

Nikki is not understandable. No one knows what she feels or thinks. It's like she is wearing a mask and no one can guess what is beneath that mask.

Her friends were confused about her mood at first, they couldn't understand her thoughts nor her feelings...

Her friends were always friends in name only; They never really cared about her. Nor she opened her heart to her friends. Because she knew that, they were with her just to show sympathy for her past.

How can she express her feelings to those who are not even her real friends. She was perfectly fine outside; But inside, she wasn't.

An accident happened on this road two years ago.This is the road where she lost her family. She lost everyone she loved. But she was alive, the only survivor who has lost her everything.

She witnessed the death of her family. She has seen them suffering the pain of death with her own eyes. She was crying loudly and shouting their names, she was screaming so loud. But no answer was received from any of them, they were just soulless bodies; They coundn't hear her.

Her life turned into a nightmare since that incident. There was no one beside her, with whom she could share her troubles and sufferings. The path of her life was empty.

During her childhood, her life was a blessing for her. She was surrounded by real friends and their love, but it didn't last long, everyone left one by one.

She was alone and all by herself.
