It is a common saying, or perhaps Time really had taken flight, in a hurry to go somewhere- that the night was over just in the blink of an eye!
The evening was spent in circumstances she didn't want to remember, and now the dawn was knocking on her door, like the arrival of a desired long-lost friend along with the reminder of an undesirable pact, which she was going to have to follow anyhow!
She had never been afraid of speaking publicly in front of any number of people, but the virtual presentation was making her somewhat nervous. Other than that, she was not sure if she would not mess up due to the intense feeling of being lost somewhere, without any known person around!
