It's 5am and it is funny I've woken up now. This time usually, i'm just getting into bed. But then this day is different and funny, just like the mood. The world is still a dark, quiet place; just how I like it.
I hear the sound of the world getting drenched and can't help smiling remembering a conversation i'd had sometime yesterday. That yesterday seems distant already, like it happened in a different world, a world called happy. I take in a deep breath, my way of coping with the world when everything becomes too heavy to bear.
As I sit here to pen down my thoughts, I wonder when this melancholic feeling walked in. How was it so swift? And not a noise did it make at its entry. I realize I should just curl back in bed. But it's too late, the thoughts have started flooding in. Funnily, it is just one thought in repeat - what am I doing with my life?
Before I could answer I hear noises below. The alarm ringing, mother waking up, water flowing.
It isn't long before mother walks into the room with a hot cup of tea; the answer, I fear, will have to wait. Because just like that life comes in the way of my search for answers.
