The thought was that even though I would have lots of money in the future， with whom am I going to spend and enjoy it？ It was then that I realized the loss I had suffered in my life. I was certain that even if I went back to my friends they would think that there was something wrong with me. I decided to take all my friends on a picnic but I was afraid that they two would not turn up. The only solution was to meet them and tell them my feelings.
