Ugh, Oliver Oxy. I'm just contemplating my life. I feel so worthless.

H
Why'd you think that? Do you know anything on this Earth has purpose.
So, what's my purpose? I don't think I can even help living things.
O
H
Don't you know that we can have covalent bonding?
What do you mean by that?
O
H
Well, we can bond to form water molecules. I have six electrons in my valence, and I can share two with you.
But will my atoms be enough?
O
Oh yeah, my neighbor Harry Hydro.
Meanwhile, Harry Hydro's passing by....

H2
Not unless, you know someone who is like you. Then the three of us can have a good bonding to form water.
O
Oh, you guys talkin' about me?
H1
Yes, Harry! You'll be a great help for me not to feel worthless. We'll share atoms with one another and Oliver Oxy will share an electron to us. Therefore, we can create water molecules.
H2
Hm, sounds great. So, what're we waitin' for? Let's bond!
That's right. We'll be called H20 and our bond's surely a great help for living beings.
