The Pretender

I was lonely yet free. "Smile", I thought to myself. But wouldn't it be meaningless if I smile when I'm lonely?

My mom approached me and asked if I needed help with my school work but I denied and smiled at her instead. She smiled back and went back to the kitchen. I finished my school work. A few moments later, my best friend, knocked at our front door. I opened it and smiled at him. He smiled back and asked if we could go to the park tomorrow. I accepted his offer and smiled again. He chuckled and told me if I was alright. I denied the fact and he went off.

We went to the park and met with my other friends. We talked a lot and I got to release fake smiles. They laughed as my best friend told us some jokes. As for me, I faked out a laugh. We shared 1 gallon of ice cream and headed back home. My best friend and I bid our goodbyes. I went up my room and locked myself up. I laid down as tears rolled down my cheeks. I was lonely yet no one noticed. I was alone trembling in the dark. No one knew that behind my smiles is a
tragic memory.
