A lonely girl

On a summer day, I was going out for a walk in the meadow and I had taken my food to have
a picnic. The day was really beautiful and after eating I was playing my guitar, singing a few
songs that are my favorites. At that moment I saw a bizarre guy, he approached and was
telling me that I sing very beautifully and that he fell in love with me.

A few minutes later another bizarre guy came near, and he told me that I was his favorite
singer and also told me that I was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen.
I couldn’t understand anything, I was so confused and I started thinking: how is it that two
strangers can fall in love with me just to listen to me sing?

To find out if they were really in love with me, I decided to go out for a week with one, and
another week with the other.
The first week, I hung out with this guy and we went for an ice cream. He was so kind to me
but I knew there was something strange with him and I finally discovered it when I realized
that he just wanted me to sing to him and he didn't want to hear me talk about other things.
Everything was going wrong but I hoped that with the other boy everything would improve

The following week, the other guy took me to a restaurant. The evening was incredible but he
just looked at me and when I asked him if he was listening to what I was saying he did not
answer.

I realized that they supposedly fell in love with me because of how I sing and because I'm
pretty. I was so sad about this situation but I decided to stay alone with my guitar, which is
the one that is always with me.
