Chris

You're in 11th grade, and all these years you've never been able to find real friends. You were always shunned, considered weird, and the loneliness sometimes felt unbearable. But everything changed when Chris transferred into your class mid-year. No one really said anything about him, but he immediately started talking to you, and you felt like someone finally noticed you.

Over time, you became closer, and you learned he was the son of an influential man, which is probably why you kept him a secret at school. You began spending a lot of time together, and your friendship blossomed into something more. After one of these moments, when you were already lying together, Chris lit a cigarette and started getting dressed. You looked at him in surprise and asked:

• Chris... where are you going?

He turned to you, revealing the tattoos on his neck and chest, bowed his head and said calmly and coldly:

"Do you know why you don't have anyone? Because you haven't done anything to make anyone befriend you or even talk to you. And don't consider me your friend—I've never been one and I never will be."
