Of all the feelings and emotions, Pain thought it was the worst, always observing from afar all his siblings. From the brightest ones like Happiness and Love to the darkest ones like Hatred and Anger, Pain analyzed how they were fulfilled in their conditions.
Occasionally, one feeling would join another, even if they were radically different. All feelings are shared among themselves, making their work easier. However, Pain was always alone, without anyone; sometimes not even Pity or Fear wanted to accompany him. Pain was miserable.
One day, Pain was sitting alone, far from the other feelings and emotions, pondering how he suffered, without company or help. Love, who was wandering around, looked at him for a while and felt the need to approach. Pain, suspicious, hid in his darkness.
«It’s me, Love, you know I couldn’t hurt you anymore,» Love said softly, and from amid the shadows emerged Pain, defeated and tired, bursting into tears. Love understood that he needed help and without hesitation hugged him. Pain felt so much better; his burdens suddenly became lighter. They stayed like that for a while until Love said he had to leave; immediately, Pain burst into tears again. Love moved, tore a piece of his heart, and gave it to Pain. «You will never be alone again,» Love said as he walked away.
The piece of Love’s heart transformed into a new feeling, looked at Pain, and hugged him. «I will call you Compassion,» said Pain as he felt better.
