Baarish ( Rain ).

Today was quiet.

I fell asleep in the living room after watching 

one after another videos on Youtube. 

And that I was finally awaken after a good 

eight hours of sleep due to a phone call.

I ran upstairs to shower and then ran 
down again after dolling myself up.

To grab the car key and the next thing I knew 
was that I was driving out for lunch alone.

Today was quiet.

I've never felt more lonely driving and looking 

for parking and to stop for lunch alone.

I ate my lunch quietly.

And that I gulped down my orange juice 
quickly as the store was closing as well.

As I packed food for the boys, I drove home in silence. 

Thinking all to myself that if I was your 

girlfriend, I would have never ever let you go.

Thinking all to myself, 
that our love story is a difficult one.

I came home wanting to sit alongside 
my brother for Jurassic World.

But me, being me, decided to sleep. 
To kill these silence away.

I fell into a deep sleep with the television switched on.

I was awaken due to a whatsapp text message.

I had to get dinner.

I woke up with my whole body feeling sore 
only to realize that I did not catch a nap.

I slept. 

Damn good sleep.

We got ready and since elder brother 
was skipping dinner with us.

Younger brother drove me out for dinner 
and we decided to have mamak instead of 
dining the typical chinese cuisine once again.

Since I have so much on my platter, he left for for the night market and left me to finish my food up quietly.

Once done with dinner, I paid the guy and 
walked out quietly out of the restaurant.

I walked over to get myself the chocolate biscuits and 
I grabbed the over priced Walls Oreo Ice - Cream.

I walked to pick up the car and
 I walked quietly along the pathaway.

I waited and waited for 
my younger brother to just appear.

When he was finally here, 
I put my foot down to drive him home.

I came back and immediately ran upstairs 
to speak to the long lost best friend, Mei Yee.

As I was having a great laugh,
 I heard the door unlock and mum got home.

I spent the next minute staying on bed. Laying down. Staring at the walls. Staring at the ceiling.

I realized, that I was being quiet once again.

The phone rang and my older brother who left us 
for dinner over futsal came walking in the door with
 his girlfriend with lots and lots of durians.

So as I was downstairs doing all these, 
I could not bring myself to even speak.

I went upstairs as I remember that 
I left my phone to charge, my phone rang.

Without seeing the caller, 
I picked it up and held it to my ear.

Hello, that was all that I utter. 
Dead silence on the other end.

I said hello once again.
I could hear stuttering noise in the background.

It was then that 
I heard someone inhaled a deep breath. 

And, it was his voice at the other end.

Hey, was all that he said.
