wondering.

Pic by : DeviantartShe drifted off in a light sleep that made her think back of whatever had happened in this past 5 months. The sun was up. Trees were swaying to and fro like the gentle caress of a mother. Her hands were resting on her book and her legs crossed in a comfortable way.
First, she thought of her girlfriends. Six of them. Each of them a treasure of life. Different and confident, held together by an invicible bond that sometimes threats to break off. Every one of them a beautiful individual but when brought together, might cause a little of a havoc. A large group never brings much trust. Some feels left out, some keeps to themselves, some tries their very best to hold on, some drifting off in a world of their own, some couldn't bring herself to care, some too busy to notice, some just.... gave up. What happened? Girls are complicated beings and she couldn't bring herself to understand the veil that covers it all. It is a complicated relationship, and if only a wave of the 'magic wand' would unravel it all.
Next, she thought of her family. A house full of laughter now only comprises of silence. This is a part of life, she told herself. The mother is busy struggling with her job, and now she has a sigh of relief when things turn out better than she expected. A silent prayer to God always helps. The father, as busy as usual, worked day and night only to lighten the financial burden of the family. The moments he has at home was spent helping the family with chores and perhaps a little time for himself with the sitcom. The eldest, far away from home is striving and excelling at what he does best. Being awesome. He longs to come home but work is pulling him back. The brother, again, busy with work and girlfriend. He might be a little less attached to the family.
She, herself is wrapped up in her own world. Busy with studies and friends. Barely spending time at home. Even when she is, nobody is at home. What happened to the never ending arguments and teasing between her siblings? She sighed and a tear rolled down her cheek without her realising. She turned to her right and hugged her doggie. The playfulness is long gone and will forever be missed. So little time spent together, meaningful events meant nothing when you can't spend it with your family.
Then, she thought of school. The schedule is so hectic she could barely breathe. Homeworks, extra classes, co-curricular activities, sports, everything is cramming down this year. THE year to determine your future. She spends more time in school than at home. And she longs for the comfort of her bed. She clings closer to her doggie just for a sense of home. Sometimes she feels that it is too much but this is high school life and, she would have to do her best. This is what she has to go through. There are people who are more unlucky than herself and she should be grateful.
She thought of him.. And she smiled.
