T/N: I find this on NU request board. Yeay! New Novel.

――Human beings are contradictory creatures.

　I’ve always had the urge to be alone, to be disconnected from the rest of the world.

　When I was in school, I suddenly cancelled my cell phone and lost touch with my friends to concentrate on studying for exams. But when I missed someone, I would bring my cell phone back.

　It’s the same with social networking sites. There were times when I suddenly got sick of all human relationships and deleted my account. But I still miss people and repeat.

　For example, let’s say you have made a beloved friend, confidant, or lover. But how can you be sure that the urge to cut off this relationship will never come?

　I’ve always been afraid of this contradiction in my mind more than anything else.
