    He's the guy who sits in the corner and watches.

     
     
     
      He's the guy who sits in the corner and watches. His eyes are wide with expectation, though his heart is already heavy with the thought of knowing he won't be included. He watches anyway. What else can he do? He's already worked out all his math homework. He's already upto date with all his studies. Maybe he can read his english poem one more time. But he decides to watch them anyway. He observes everything. He sees the smiles. He hears the screams. He feels their joy. And, at the same time, he feels no joy of his own. He's the guy who sits in the corner and watches.
     
      They're all around us, aren't they? The ones who aren't as popular. The ones who don't have amazing friends who'd do anything for them. They're just as nice. They're just as human. I hate it when I see one of them. Once a friend in my class had absolutely no friends. So, every lunch break, he used to go to his younger brothers class and eat lunch with him and his brother's friends. He was in the 10th and his brother was still in shorts. This guy was really sweet. He was super nice and always ready to help. He used to listen to the teacher in class and according to the boys in class, that was his biggest flaw.
     
      Children can be really cruel, can't they? What happens when a guy like this grows up? What countless issues will he have? What about his children then? What do the schools do?! A large part of the population in my school is just socially inept. They can't sustain conversations if they're life depended on it. And when they do, they get shot down by the other cruel kids. I'm not referring to 1st standard or 2nd standard kids. I'm talking about 7th,8th,9th and 10th standard people. 
     
      I know its way too much to ask anyone to become a friend of someone like this. But next time you come across them, why not smile and say,"Hey! How's your day going?" I know it would make that person's day. I know that it would make a significant difference. So make it!
