Once there was an old man. His family all passed away in a war. He lived alone in a big, empty house. Day by day, he just sat by the window, looking at the street outside, waiting for someone who would never come back. His only companion was an old dog, but one day the dog also left him. He was left with just the silence and his memories of the past.
A man lost his job and his wife left him at the same time. He had to move into a small, shabby apartment. His former friends gradually disappeared from his life. He often walked alone in the park at night, feeling the cold wind on his face. He thought about all the things he had lost and the loneliness was overwhelming. He felt like he was all alone in this world with no one to turn to.
There was a girl who moved to a new city for her studies. She didn't know anyone there. In the dormitory, her roommates were always out having fun with their own friends. She tried to make friends but was constantly rejected. She spent many evenings alone in her room, crying herself to sleep. It was a long and sad time of loneliness for her. She felt like she was in a dark hole with no way out.
