Friday Night

It’s not like I planned it this way, but here I am, sitting alone on a Friday night, scrolling through social media while everyone else seems to have plans. You know that feeling when you realize you’re the one left out? It’s like being the last kid picked for dodgeball, but worse because there’s no actual game. There’s just silence. No one to call, no plans to make. And it’s not that I don’t want friends—I do. It’s just that sometimes, it feels like I’m trying and trying and yet, I’m still in the same spot. Alone. And it's hard not to wonder what’s wrong with me.
