Day 9 - Bend in the Road

She was growing desperate.
She wanted to run from it all.
Leave everything behind.

She could do it, couldn't she?
She has the resources.
Well, emotionally, at least.

Or does she?

Day 8 - Geminorum

It was hardly a coincidence.

She was there, being carefree.
Trying to be carefree.

Who would have thought that he'd be there also?
Acting in his own world, performing in his own stage.

He must not have noticed.
Neither did she.

But somehow, some way, with the littlest significance.

"The Universe, indefinite as it may be.
Does wonders to brush two souls - with intertwined fates."

Day 7 - Restless

She fidgeted, and swayed, and turned.

She slept for three hours yesterday.
You'd think she'd be exhausted.

She felt drained, yet unsettled.
Thus giving a new meaning to the concept of "restlessness".

Day 6 - Eyes of flame

Her eyes glowed a fierce red.

She dared not look directly.
No contact with anyone's eyes.
No, not today.

The night before.
She burned her eyelashes under tons of words she did not understand.

Trying to strike a conversation with men of literature.
They were bold, vigor, and relentless.

She tried desperately to keep up.
But, to no avail.

Half-full, Half-empty

Enough is enough.

She could not take it anymore.
She is about to leave her teen age years behind.
And yet, much has been left unaccomplished.

A vast cloud in the horizon existed just beyond her reach.
Unscathed, unraveled, untouched.

What was wrong with her?
Opportunities were laid before her and for most of the time,
she did not even budge.

She just stood there.
Half-pondering on countless unfortunate souls.
Half-thinking about the remaining blessed ones.
Gifted in one way or another...

Burning with emotions inside.
Pity... Envy...
She really can't decide.
