Lonely

Bob: I hate taking showers. I get so lonely.

*Ramz and I look surprised and laugh a little...*

Me: Is that the only time you are ever alone?

Bob: Yeah. It's so lonely. And sometimes when I'm doing my homework. But I just tell Mom I need help so she helps me. I just don't want to be alone.

Ramz: So you really aren't stupid?

Bob: Well sometimes I really need the help.
