A Mirror Reflecting My Identity

A usual atmosphere felt by individuals even loners, people who see themselves in everyone else. Someone who identifies as no one, an unusual feeling of a young daughter. The last offspring of the family is what they call me. Obedient, respectful, smart, and so on and so forth is expected; An academic achiever, the dream child, but not golden. Try your best to not disappoint, do your job as the youngest, and make everyone proud. A simple child, a student, a sibling, a daughter, and a friend – Someone who can be counted on, can also be the one who counts their mistakes.

The friends on the way to the desired place may be the real treasure we must keep
