How to hide that I'm depressed :'(

Hania:

It was good talking to Mrs.Malik. I feel light. She's not just a successful businesswoman but also a good human being. I have always seen a reserve side of her but last night she was both like a mother and friend to me. I heard from people that she don't have kids that's why she is rude to others having kids. And sometimes vent out her anger on Students of my age. But i don't think so. Then obviously rumours are rumours and we should rely on facts and our experience.

Depression:

Whenever my friends invite me to hangout with them i always make the dumbest of excuses. From which they might have guessed that I'm avoiding them. Well that's right I'm avoiding them because I'm not really interested in knowing that what they're doing, in which university they'll start studying in and other details. I know they don't have the habit of bragging about stuff but it's just that I'm hypersensitive these days. I just don't want to lose confidence in front of them. They are the people who have seen me in my proudest moments, so i can't let them see me in this state.

And sometimes when i can't come up with some excuse and my mom just want me to go and have some fresh air, i always end up sitting somewhere alone not bothered by the people around me.

You know the feeling when you don't want to wakeup early in the morning and your mom drag you out of your warm, cozy bed half awake half asleep.

So today is one of those days. My friend's brought me to some movie release where others went out with picking their snacks and i found myself sitting on a couch. Staring at people in front of me. Some happy some putting a show.

Asim:

My friend suggested me to meet someone at a movie release today. I pull myself together and get ready. Until last night i was a big mess in chaos of my friend anxiety. But today i have to put a big show.

I thought that i was supposed to meet that person in the hallway, waiting room or somewhere outside the theater area so i didn't purchase the movie ticket.

When i reach the cinema i received a text from him.

It says;

"I'll head straight into the theatre after arriving so meet me there in the interval break."

I got worried and hurried to the ticket station but the person there showed me the full house board. This all annoyed the hell out of me. I was disappointed i didn't know what to do. So i sat at a couch nearby.

And then again, I started my blame game;

"Don't do this with me please! It's probably my last chance if i won't get this opportunity I'm going to quit singing then. It's all over for me! All over!"

"Do you want some water?"

I looked up and saw a girl offering me a water bottle.

Her gaze look worried so i took her offer. She smiled and sat beside me.

"Now i think you've cooled down!"

I nodded.

She took something out of her pocket and placed it on my lap. I take that in my hand to see and then after watching I shift my gaze to her asking "What and Why?"

She said;" Just take it. I saw how worried you were after knowing that it's a full house. The movie is about to start so just go. Or else you'll miss your date".

"No... it's not.. like that...let me.."

"It's ok i can understand!"

She smiled at me again and then ran off to the exit gate without looking back at me for once.
