Symbolism. Marco's the lost soul.
"Why aren't there any people around?" Marco asked himself while looking around. He spent several minutes walking and searching for any trace of human life. After quite some time, not even a single soul passed by.

Sympathetic Person: What were his last words? Relative (sobbing): He...(gulps and weeps hard) he sighed... Sympathetic Person: ... At least make your last words valuable, mate.
"Sigh…" Alan sighed before he lost consciousness.

You have succeeded in making me feel worthless. Without uttering a word. That's a new record. Very insightful, though.
He was just a person in a country on a planet named earth. Which revolve around a yellow dwarf star. Zoom out a little more and you can see that the yellow dwarf star known as the sun is one in a hundred billion stars that revolve around a spiral galaxy known as the milky way. And the funny part is that it doesn't end there. Our galaxy, the milky way is just one of the trillions of galaxies found in the universe.

I just--I can't even--how perfect is this? How much more Tito Charles can you get? That "...do whatever." is amazing, tho.
Charleston: Yes, You! Stay at home, and do your thing, anything. Leave the house if the situation is indeed necessary. Watch your food intake, and make sure that you eat healthy foods. Do some exercises, or do whatever.

Thanks a lot for your honest review, Kami!
This chapter represents how people have hidden their pasts behind their bright smiles. Dacron, who I thought as amusing and entertaining, has a deep, apparently dark, past that haunts him. He's not exactly a lost soul, but he is confused on the inside despite pretending that he's not. Be kind to EVERYONE, but especially the ones that light up the world through their small actions because their smiles show that they're better at bearing the weight of their past.

I love the mannerisms of each character...it symbolizes their personality quite well. Dacron and Cooper are usually care-free and amusing, as shown in, well, every conversation. Tito Charles is caring, but protective, shown through the "harsh pat" Marco gets. Marco is lost, shown in his random behavior and inability to process his replies and concentrate on himself. Very well done, mate.

Beautifully written. This is a nice representation of that feeling when you're surrounded by people and nature, but there's a faint aura of solitude hanging around you. Yet, somehow, it doesn't feel bad, it's more of a rare bittersweet realization that not everyone is a lost soul, and even if you don't know the way, you only have to keep looking because the world is ready to guide you. I hope this makes sense. 😶

The lone soul fought the growing sense of enviousness in him. He tried to dim down the overwhelming feeling, shoving it far away so there would be nothing left but forced contentment.

I have been gifted with the spirit of Dacron...cuz this is just very relatable.
"Hey, Tito! Aren't you gonna ask if I want some too?" Dacron asked while childishly raising his hand to get his uncle's attention. "I also want some, and maybe you could add a creamer as well."

My mother when I say sorry after breaking the 6th expensive plate in the house.
'Sometimes, people will only apologize for the thought of doing it. Even if one would say sorry a thousand times, every sorry meant nothing more but just a word that needs to be said.'
