I was in my room with the lights off, facing the computer.
I was trying to conserve energy and slow down global warming by not turning on the lights.
Being in the dark, i didn't realised that my young cousin entered my room.
Suddenly he was standing beside me, staring at the computer,
and then his attention gazed on me.



He asked me '' do you have friends ? ''
I asked him '' do you think i have friends ? ''
He bluntly answered '' no. ''

and he left the room leaving me with alot of racing thoughts.

Why would he say that?
I blame it on the atmosphere of the room.
It was dark, gloomy, quiet kind of feel.
Yes it was the lights.


Kids are so mean!
I have friends!
Right?

Friends?
Pals?
Buddies?
Acquaintances?
Anybody?!



PS: On the lights when kids are around.
