All Alone Closed

All the classes were over for the day and Cheryl walked down to the lake. She was walking all alone again. She didn't have any friends and she was socially awkward. It was a nice day. It was a cool day and there weren't many kids outside. She walked a little and found a spot to sit and watch the lake. Her long brown hair blew in the wind. Her blue-gray eyes focused on the glistering water. She thought a lot about home when she was alone like now and like most days. She wished that her family could be here to comfort her and tell her that everything was alright. She wished that someone would walk by and notice he and possibly talk to her. She sat there watching the lake and turning around every so often to see kids walking by laughing and giggling. She stood up and moved to a different place where there were fewer people than before. She still would hear people walk by but she wouldn't turn to see them anymore. She then began to skip stones to pass time. Each stone was a wish that she had and she pretended to send each one to a place where they would all come true. She stopped skipping stones and turned to look in the distance. She heard faint footsteps and could make out the shape of a person walking towards her. She felt like something inside her light up. She noticed that the person in the distance was walking alone. She told herself that she shouldn't be happy that someone is walking alone yet she was. She thought that this person might actually stop and talk to her. Then her body felt heavy. All of a sudden she felt her light inside get dim. She couldn't think of what to say to this person if they did stop to talk to her. She soon started to wish that the person would just pass by and ignore her. She felt like she would just embarrass herself if she attempted to talk to the person. She didn't know what to do. She looked up to see that the person was coming closer and her heart started to pound. She looked around for a place to hide so that the person wouldn't see her. She looked at the lake and thought that it was the closest place to hide. She could hold her breath for a while so she thought that she would be fine. She dove into the cool water as the person came even closer. She felt the water caress her body like if she were a baby. She hoped that the person didn't notice her diving into the water. She just hoped that they would ignore her.
