Oh.

I see.

So.

You don't choose Pepsi.

Well.

I understand.

I have tried to make friends before.

But they decline.

Maybe I'm too pushy.

I guess I won't gain a friend.

It might be time for me to quit trying.

But I can get by.

I have a passion that I can't force on others.

But at least I have something that keeps me going.

Don't worry.

You don't need to feel bad for me.

I've done nothing to receive your empathy.

If you're feeling your heart is true in departing from here.

Then don't halt.

Do what you know is best.

But...

I wish to leave you with a final thought:

I prefer Coca-Cola.
