Solitude

She wondered why people are so obsessed about having a companion. Is it not easy and simple to be in control of your own life?

Guys are always a step away from your call but if you let them come forward and help you, they assume responsibility and take advantage of your friendly demeanor. You bet they come back with allegations like "You smiled happily when I toiled so hard to call a taxi for you. And now you say friendship?" Guys are not only self-centered but also hypocritical.

She thought about how all the authors she'd read talk about complicated women. "Are men not complicated?"she thought, "Are they not opportunistic? Are they not power mongers and do crazy things? Politicians, Businessmen, Engineers..."

"Guys are desparate", she told herself.

A genuine heart is what she longed for. An understanding smile, a soft touch and a warm hug. Is it so hard to find? As days went by, her longing seemed to wither. Days got longer and nights shorter. She got tired of implications and chit-chats. She smiled her days away and laughed her parties off the lips. She hated how shallow people are!

She doesn't seem to remember her dreams anymore. "I'm more mature now. I don't have time for this.", she convinced herself.

She looks at herself in the mirror everyday and says to her image, "I'm single and I'm very glad I'm. I'm thankful I'm".
