It's drizzling outside, beyond the windows. The blow of wind was strong. The glossy glasses were getting blurry as raindrops were adhering to the outer surface and dribbling down, making the outer vision vague to look through. The baby cactus was trying to peep its spiky head from a small pot kept on the windowsill, at a corner. The oval-shaped clock was ticking on its own. Inside this cage of four pinkish walls, a tousled life was sitting on a chair bending the head on a red desk, cuddling with arms. I was weeping.


All of a sudden, one of the windows opened wide somehow. A chilly breeze filled up the room. Raindrops were scattering inside through the aperture. The alarm clock went off. I lifted up my head a little. The papers on the desk, lying beneath my elbows, were so soggy as if water would drip from them." Oh! Is it from the heavy shower of my eyes! ". I shook my shoulders a little and starred here and there with the swollen eyeballs. On the floor, the torn pieces of my CV were dancing with the ripples of wind."The wrenched fate of mine," I sighed. Leaving the desk, I stood up somehow. My legs were shivering. Taking some tiny steps, I dragged my body toward the opened window. The outer nature was quite a calm and solemn one, only the sound of falling rain I could hear. But the gloomy weather was fine, sometimes it's okay to be moody, silence can explain better.


I looked at the mirror, attached to the opposite wall. Red puffy eyes with tangled rough hair, quite spooky but dull. My heart was aching. Peculiar things were flying around my head.

"Ohh, I got rejected.....Am I really a loser? Am I really unfit for the compititive world? Would I always be the worst? All the efforts I've made throughout my life till now really useless?"

My eyes caught on the smoky glasses of the closed windows. Raindrops were sprinkling on them, they were vague. Outer surroundings were hardly visible through them. But the vision would be more clearly under the sunshine later, as all the dust were sweeping away with the flow of watery droplets. For the just moment,

they were hazy but not for long." They are glossy,...............Wait!!..No.....," I took a deep breath and exhaled.

My chest filled with deep cold air. A smile arose in my frosted lips.

"I'm adequate..... I'm okay as I'm now, I've always been. Others cannot entirely define me at once........I won't stop. I would start anew." I rubbed my eyes and opened all the windows wide. Raindrops were dripping down them.
