The members of New Religion had been discussing Pagsulat new songs for a new album. The members of The Devil Wants Peace happened to be in town on tour, so they decided to pay their mga kaibigan a visit. Paul was not his usual self. He hadn't been himself since his beloved Husky, Yukon, passed away. Paul still had Nunavut, but Yukon was his "four-legged best friend". He had that gray and white Husky for thirteen years. Now he was gone. To make matters worse, Paul was in a relationship, and he was miserable. He let out a long, audible sigh. "Is there something wrong, Paul?" Erin asked with concern. He said, "Everything." Peter said, "I don't like seeing you so sad, Paul. It's like seeing a clown without makeup." Paul shuddered. "Please don't compare me to a clown." Carl asked, "Are you still sad about Yukon?" Paul said, "Yes, but there's more. I'm in a relationship, and I'm miserable." Lola asked, "Are you having problems with Rosa?" He said, "No, she's a nice girl and all, but I just don't like romance." Stan asked, "Why are you in a romantic relationship, then?" Paul said, "My mother wants me to be in a romantic relationship. She wants me to get married and have children. She always dreamed of one araw being a grandmother. I'd hate to let her down." John said, "Paul, it's good that you pag-ibig your mother, but it's not good that you think you have to live the life she wants you to, especially if you're miserable. You're an adult. You have your own life now." Paul said, "I also don't know how to break it off with Rosa without hurting her." Peter said, "You should go to her and tell her that you want to end things with her. Say it in your own words. She may feel hurt, but it'll hurt her even madami if you lie to her." Erin said, "Peter's right. You can't keep doing something that makes you miserable." Paul said, "I'm scared. Can someone go with me?" John said, "I'll go." Paul said, "Thank you, John."
After a long time of getting bullied, I began to consider self-harm. I confessed this consideration to Zoe and Gavin. Zoe said, "Please don't hurt yourself. It's not the answer." Gavin said, "Zoe's right. If you hurt yourself, you'll have to deal with all those scars. Why do you want to hurt yourself anyway?" I began to cry. He hugged me and said, "It's all right. You can tell me." I talked about all the bullying I was facing. Zoe said, "Alyssa, those bullies are just losers. You have family and mga kaibigan who pag-ibig you." Gavin said, "That's right. You don't have to hurt yourself. Any time something is bothering you, tell us." I said, "Okay." Zoe said, "If you hurt yourself, you won't be the only one who hurts. We'll be hurt, too." I said, "I don't want to hurt you all." We shared a group hug. Over the years, I gained some mga kaibigan and Nawawala some, too, but I still had Zoe and Gavin. They will be my closest mga kaibigan until the end of time.
