Little Boy Across The Street

Being in a very noisy neighborhood kept me inside my house for a very long time throughout the day. I only got out for work and bring home groceries when I needed them.

Whenever I got out, I always notice a little boy riding his dark blue bicycle. It was mysterious and such a canny coincidence that I forgot one main detail to our recurring meetings.

It was to do with the time I got out. Surprisingly, it was his play time. That's the only time he got to play.

After school and tuitions, with very little time left to get away from his mundane academic life, he used to roam around in his cycle.

I rode back to my memories, of how I got too serious about studies and did very little play. But, this boy is able to make it up for both play and study. And I was happy for the fact that he believed in keeping that balance.
