He wanted to tap the like button, but he can't.

He wanted to be that guy.

He wanted to have made her happy.

He is brave, he can defend her.

He gave out a deep sigh as he felt tears down his cheek. It's too late for it now, he thought.

He decided to type something, this will be the last he muttered to himself and clicked the button.
