Commitment is a quality of being dedicated to a cause, activity or a person. It is like a contract that needs to be followed and you must not break it.
I've experienced, learned and realized in my life that the people in our Generation today cannot commit longer than they should be. They would either break their promise or be forced to stay because they are committed to one another.
Forced to stay for the following reasons:
1. You can't bear to see them hurt.
2. You are being tied on a leash.
3. They are blackmailing you.
Love shouldn't be forced. Love also should not be played. It is not a game to play someone's feelings and emotions just to satisty your ego.

I remembered back then, when I was still in High School. It was freshmen year. I've seen a lot of students roaming around the campus. There are foods that are being sold in the corner, parents taking pictures of their son/daughter.
It was a fresh start. I was happily walking with my family beside me, exploring the School so I can be familiar with it.
We suddenly passed by someone who seems to be known by my parents. The man seems to be tall and looked quite young, probably in his early 30's. They called him and talked. I wasn't actually paying attention to them, I was exploring the sight in front of me.
"I have my wife and son with me. They are probably taking pictures over there. I should call them." The man said with a smile and gestured for us to wait here.
A few minutes later, I sat down on a bench near me and pulled out my phone to check any messages.
The man whom my parents spoke to earlier, came back with his wife who looks the same as the man's age, she was smiling at my parents showing her perfect white teeth. She seems nice and pretty.
Then I looked over to the guy who's standing closely to the woman, his mother. He's kind of taller than his mother and looks so young. He must be the same age as me. I gulped and studied his face, he looks, cute.
I noticed that he didn't even smile nor look at my parents. He simply just stared everywhere and didn't move a muscle.
Suddenly, his eyes moved towards me and I realized I was eyeing him up, my eyes widen in shock and quickly looked away. I can feel myself blush from embarrassment.
"That must be your son, John." My dad said looking at the guy who looks super uninterested and probably wants to leave right at this moment.
"Oh yes, this is my son, Aiden, he'll study here." The man said with a smile as he put his arms on his son's shoulder gesturing him to pay attention.
"Oh that's great! My daughter will be studying here too." My mom said happily and also gestured me to come closer to introduce myself.
I sighed, I stand up from my seat, adjusted myself and walked towards them with a nice, warming smile.
"Hello ma'am and sir. I'm Charlotte, nice to meet you." I said to the couple. I heard someone suddenly chuckled and my eyebrows raised in confused.
I looked over to the guy who seems to be looking at me smirking.
I instantly remembered what I did earlier and now I can't look at him straight in the eyes. I remained quiet and avoided his gaze.
"Oh she looks lovely! She grew to be a fine young woman, Emily." The woman said while looking at me dearly.
"Indeed." The man agreed to his wife with a smile.
"Aiden, why don't you introduce yourself to this young lady? You will be both attending this school soon." The woman said pushing his son towards me.
"Why should I? Mom, can we please leave already?" Aiden said annoyed and was about to walk out when,
"Aiden, don't be rude. Don't you dare walk out." His dad said, disciplining him.
"Fine." Aiden said and stayed there with an arrogant expression.
"I'm sorry about that, Charlotte. He's not used talking to people he doesn't know yet." His dad said apologetically.
"Oh its okay, Mr. Park its no big deal." I said nodding with a smile.
"Well it was nice meeting you again Mr/Mrs. Green. Hope to see you all again soon. Lets have dinner sometime." Mrs. Park said with a lovely smile.
My parents nodded and they walked away.
"Charlotte, do you want something to eat?" My mom asked.
"Lets go eat burger and fries. I think I saw it somewhere over there." I said pointing my finger at the direction of the food court.
"Alright lets go." Dad said as he started to walk over there.
I hope this year would be good. I just hope.
Suddenly, my mind started hurting like crazy and I can't help but scream. My parents looked at me and their eyes widen.
"Oh no, is it hurting again?" My mom asked worriedly and seemed to panic.
"You didn't let her take the medicine earlier?" My dad questioned my mom, also getting worried.
"I did! But I guess it didn't work out this time. Sweety are you okay?" I couldn't identify who's talking now cause I can't bear the pain that's throbbing inside my head.
After a few minutes, it stopped and I was breathing heavily, I'm full of sweat and I feel like I just ran a marathon.
What is happening?
