       She was sitting in the courtyard at midnight. As it was a full moon day, the moon was shining brightly. She was sitting alone, leaning against the wall with a diary in her hand.


"I really needed someone to support me today. But look, there is no one to support me today."


She turned the pages of her diary and began to write.


"One failure is not life. Everyone left me. What did you get by hurting me? Everyone may have thought I would commit suicide. But I won't. Because I consider myself a fighter. I will definitely fight until I win."


Leaning her pen over her diary, she stood looking at the full moon in the sky. Her attention went to her shadow.


"No one is ready to be with me, but you are. If the shadow could have left, would you have left me ?" She was talking to her shadow.


She picked up the diary and left the house.


A few days later, some people came to see her.


"May I come in ?"


"Yes."


"How are you baby? You worked so hard. I'm so proud."


"Yes, you should be proud."


"What is this way of talking?"


"You're in my office, I didn't come to you." She had a different attitude on her face today.


"You achieved this because we lived with you. So why are you showing us the maze?"


Now she wanted to get up and kick everyone out.


"I'm sorry ma'am, but now it's your meeting."


"Sure, go ahead.I will be there in 5 minutes."


She looked at them all as her assistant left.They were family members who never stood back when needed.


"No one was with me when I needed you. Everyone left me except my shadow. I don't need you anymore. Now, stay the hell out of my life forever. "


       She got up from her chair and walked out of the cabin. Due to morning sunlight she could see her companion once again. Her shadow.
