All those years, I thought I handled it well. But these tears, these bucketfuls of water coming out of my eyes explained otherwise. It turned out to be me in denial as I bottled it in, locked and chained them further deep in my heart.
Headache banging against my skull so hard that it felt like pulling out hair forcefully seemed to be the only way to relieve it. Ears were ringing to the rhythm of my hiccups and fatigue consumed me, paralysing me onto one spot.
Just like that, the locked emotions had unchained themselves and snaked their way out. I let these feelings roam free as they took control of my brain. Even when I can see my surroundings, and hear my surroundings, no action had taken place.
I heard Dad and Danish talking over each other. Dad demanded to know the meaning of this and Danish kept on telling him that it was not the right time. Suddenly there was this electric current running through me, electrifying and awakening my nerves!
