When I woke up, I was not in my room, I don't know how long I was gone but this time it was more clear. The surrounding appeared hazy yet I could clearly remember this special memory.
I was in a dilemma while choosing my college. I could get into any University I wanted to but I couldn't afford it financially. Even if I get into a Government college, it would still put a lot of financial pressure on mom. I didn't want that because Mom suffered enough all these years. I can't get greedy now....
I could feel my insecurities and every bit of emotion. You could say I was living it.
When I feel my 17 year old version fighting tears I can't help but become engulfed in loneliness. That's when I felt a tug in my sleeves. I turn to see Kou sitting beside me looking worried.
" Hey, is something bothering you ? I am all ears you know I can listen."
I couldn't utter a word if I did I would bawl out and I didn't want him to see my weak side. " It's personal." I replied and he gently patted on my back. His actions were meant to comfort me but his touch intensified whatever emotions I was feeling and tears started to drip down my face. He sat there untill I calmed down. And then we left for home. Everyone had left for home.i decided to confide in him. Listening to my worries he said," It's not important to get into a prestigious University, if you are passionate to learn you would outshine the others through hardwork and talent. So don't be so disheartened if you can't go out to THE ARCHITECTURE UNIVERSITY "
As he said those words my surroundings again changed into dust and now I was sure that I was reliving my memories. I was reliving my final year of high school, especially my memories with Kou.
I am still suspecting the lady's Identity. I don't know what happened to the present me. I feel like I am drifting to a place from where I wouldn't be able to return. Why am I trapped in Memories ?
