George had just shot the closest thing he had to family. He had killed Lennie. It was all for the better, but he was now alone. It is safe to assume they have known each other for years, and have travelled together for years. Killing Lennie must of have been near impossible for George to cope with, and it took every ounce of courage to do so. He killed his best friend, he killed his only real friend. He no longer had anybody by his side, he was alone. Just like the rest of the men, he was forced to move on, all alone.
One is the Loneliest Number..
This song can relate to the situation almost perfectly. George and Lennie were together, the closest thing they had to family. Even though there were two of them, it was a lonely time for them both. Now that Lennie is dead, George is all alone.
