Olivia was returning home from her tutoring class. On her way, she felt a strangeness slowly starting to appear. Until now, she hadn't felt anything at all and was living her life as usual. However, this time was completely different. Deep inside, it felt like something was really bothering her. She tried several times to keep herself calm, but it didn't work at all. Olivia, who was contemplating herself on the bus, was suddenly surprised to find that she had already passed the stop she was supposed to stop at. Slightly annoyed, she got off at this area and then walked for a while. The night view wasn't at all scary. She continued walking until she finally reached the stop where she was supposed to stop. Slowly, she continued her journey until she felt an undeniable sensation of irritation. Her head was truly filled with so many sudden questions. This time, she was in the middle of a crossroads. Together with the many people crossing it, she felt as if she was in an abyss of emptiness. Arriving in front of her house, Olivia looked up at the sky and let out a long breath. Then she entered her house. The atmosphere of her room, which had always been a calming place, she now enjoyed it while lying down. He glanced at his phone screen for a moment and checked his notifications. Several messages had come in, and they were none other than messages from his friends' group chat. “I can't stand it anymore,” Olivia muttered. She stared at the ceiling, imagining how she was reborn as someone else. She lived life like that person, and didn't have to worry about anything at all. Someone very special like in a fairy tale princess. The uncertain thoughts increasingly made her feel like she was sinking into the desire of dreams. If it all came true, the world that had been terrifying all this time would turn into a magical fantasy. Once again, she continued to dive deeper and found no bottom at all. Her eyes seemed to sparkle accompanied by a very charming smile. The endless dream, making her fall deeper into it. Not long after, Olivia heard a sound from downstairs, right next to her house. The sound was very loud and then she got up from her bed and checked it through her bedroom window. She looked around, apparently there was a woman who was arguing with her boyfriend. The sound was so loud that it even made several people who saw it immediately turned to them. Olivia sighed and then closed the curtains again. She felt regret for seeing the couple's argument that looked annoying. She then opened her cell phone and wanted to call her friend to talk. “Hello Laura,” Olivia said over the phone. "Yes. Olivia." “Are you busy right now?” “No. I just happened to be lying in bed. Is something wrong?” “Yes, I want to tell you something annoying.” “Why do you want to tell such a thing?” "Actually, I'm annoyed because the sound of the couple arguing downstairs can be heard all the way up to my room. And another thing, I'm bored and don't know what I'm feeling right now. It's all mixed together." “Ah, so that’s how it is. Why don’t you try relaxing?” “What? Why do I have to do that?” "That's so you can calm down and sleep soundly. You seem to have a lot on your mind. What have you been thinking about lately? Is it about exams? Or something else?" "Maybe I'm thinking too much. But, I'm really only thinking about one thing right now." "What's that?" “You want to know?” “If you allow it, I think it's fine.” “This may sound very unreasonable.” “It's okay. You can tell me.” “I think my life is meaningless.” “Why do you think like that?” "What I see is this: there's nothing I can do but breathe and participate in the activities. In fact, it feels like every time I participate in these activities, there's no meaning in it." “You're just tired and need some rest.” “Is that all?” "Eh?" Olivia, who continued to tell what she was currently feeling, immediately aroused Laura's curiosity. She had heard several rumors related to Olivia. Although she didn't believe them, she listened to the rumors until they were finished from several children who were always talking about her. They said things that really didn't make sense and sounded like they were deliberately made up. Laura, who didn't believe the rumors at all, at that time she continued to ignore those who spread them. And finally, she met Olivia when that damn person invited the two of them to join and work together. She saw something very different from what was rumored. Laura became more confident in herself who began to trust Olivia and now became her friend. It was indeed a sad reality, how the two of them didn't have many friends at all and now became friends. Now, Olivia, who had finished talking about what was in her head, then fell asleep. The dark night made the silence even more. She slept soundly. Meanwhile, Laura, who was in her room and still not asleep, suddenly saw several messages coming into her phone. Messages sent by people in the class chat group always enlivened the forum. Not long after, he also prepared to sleep because it was already late at night. “I should go to bed soon,” Laura muttered. The next day at school. Laura, who went alone, then she met some people who knew her and then talked about the lesson. While she and some of her friends were talking, suddenly their eyes were captivated by the arrival of someone. They looked at her with a look of amazement, immediately making Laura feel surprised. It turned out that the person they saw was none other than the popular person at school. That person was none other than Felix. They had always been like this, even for a very long time. Felix, who completely ignored the admiration of the girls who liked him, indeed looked ridiculous in Laura's eyes. “Why are you laughing, Laura?” said her friend, feeling offended. “Ah, no. It's nothing.” Laura then went into her classroom. Today, Olivia was also outside the classroom and she was sitting reading a book. There she had felt annoyed because several times people were always noisy and disturbed her concentration. Immediately she immediately moved and was now on the roof. The peace that was felt in her chest was very calm and now she felt calm and could read her book without any disturbance. Moreover, in this place she began to find the meaning of what she should do now and even in the future. Her mind began to clear again as clear as a waterfall.
