Please help me!
Please come back!

I stood there, searching for him while my tears started to fall down.
I don't understand why I'm crying.
I wanted this!
I wanted to be outside and enjoy life like everyone else, but why can't I do it?

I turned around when someone grabbed my hand.
There he was, panting heavily with worry in his eyes.

"I was looking for--"
He stopped talking when he saw my eyes teary.

"I'm--I'm sorry for leaving you alone" he said and was about to reach my cheek but I backed away.

I felt bad when his face became sad, but I couldn't do anything else.
No one except my father has ever touched me before. All of this is still new to me.

I was about to release my hand from his but he looked down at me and made me hold his sleeve.

Walking on a busy street, with someone I never met before. I don't know what's going on.
I just hope everything turns out good and I don't hurt anyone.
