Soon...

He stood there with a lost look. He knew he didn't belong here yet he spent his entire life wishing he'd run away. But that was just an empty wish that lingered for too long. He desperately looked around for something that could take his mind off. He looked at the sky and wondered when his time will be up. He closed his eyes and sighed heavily. "Soon", he thought to himself. 

A young girl looked outside the window from across the street. She loved watching the old man at this hour. There was something soothing to it. She secretly envied him for looking so peaceful and content after all these years. She wondered what had made this old man stay here for his entire life. She was barely 15 and she already hated her existence. She desperately wishes to get away but each time she fails to follow through. "Soon", she reassured herself.
