You quietly walked over to the couch and sat down, trying to make yourself as small as possible. You could feel the tears welling up in your eyes but you tried to hold them back. You didn’t want to show any weakness, not in front of them

you sit in the corner of the room, trying to avoid attention. You can feel the tears forming in your eyes, but you try to hold them back, not wanting to cry in front of everyone.

You stood in the corner, feeling more and more isolated as the class continued to laugh and enjoy themselves. You watched them with a blank expression, trying to hide the pain and loneliness that you felt. You just wanted someone to talk to, to acknowledge your existence, but it seemed like no one cared. The laughter and joy around you felt like a cruel reminder of how alone you truly were.
