Lucy:
I
lost
my
mind
these
days,
things
just
don’t
go
right,
no
matter
how
hard
I
try.
Henry:
Why
do
you
say
that?
Lucy:
I
just
think
I
am
such
a
pathetic
loser.
No
matter
how
hard
I
am
gonna
try,
and
there
is
no
way
I
can
make
it.
My
life
is
just
a
joke.
Henry:
Look
at
the
moon.
It’s
so

and

Lucy:
Yes.

you
trying

Henry:
Life
is

of
ups

downs,
and
so

the

Henry:
That’s
exactly
what
I
am
trying
to
tell
you.
Lucy:
I
need
to
think
it
carefully.
That’s
so
deep.
Henry:
It’s
not
as
deep
as
you
think.
You
need
just
to
see
the
world
with
hopeful
eyes.
Lucy:
Is
that
why
I
always
see
smile
on
your
face?
Henry:
Yes.
It
is
just
because
that
I
always
enjoy
