In the place were a very gregarious guy, a fun and flirtatious girl, a young quiet boy and a new guy.
As the outgoing couple got on with their tasks and chatted and played, the young boy and the new guy were much quieter.
Later the young boy asked the quiet guy how he could adapt himself to be outgoing like the cool couple.
The new quiet man said: Under these masks they have much complexity but under all four of us is pure emptiness.
That emptiness would scare them and so they project a façade. Much better to be true and empty.
