Does he create art, or is it merely litter?
Sorry for e late reply. What abt novena?It's okay. Yeah sure! United square?Ok. I'll be there at ard 4.Alright, i'll see you there at 5 then!Her heart sang as she kept her phone away, she jumped to her feet and the chair screeched against the filthy classroom cement floor.
"BYE HAOWEN BYE JACQ! I'm going to meet my friend now. Doesn't take long to get to Novena right?"
"Yah, damn fast one."
"Ok then.. See you guys tomorrow! Take care ah!"
"GOODBYE LUCY."
And their laughter lingered on the corridoors while happiness trailed behind her foot steps. She boarded the bus and it started to rain.
She liked rain. She always thought about how sometimes people dread the rain because it rendered inconvenience, wet clothes and a sickening frustration upon them; and yet ignore the fact that when it rains, the trees and flowers are actually so happy. She liked to imagine the trees singing and the flowers dancing to the beat of rain, and delighted in the symphony of how the leaves clapped as raindrops fell onto the ground, washing away every dirt and sin. She looked out of the window and admired the way the raindrops attached themselves to the glass, desperately grasping for the slightest bit of friction, while others slipped and fell into endless puddles beneath. She couldn't figure out which was worse. It must be tough being a raindrop, made to drop, and that's it.
Hey. It's raining heavily, stuck at the bus stop. Can meet in ps instead?Sure! Can can.And so they met up, hands held strolling along the streets of Dhoby Ghaut, sat on a bench in the nearby park as their knees grew weak not just from fatigue. Her head on his shoulder, the weight of the world on the other. They were all they ever needed - like water, like breath, like rain.
Then Mother called and she needed to go home. Okay talk talk touch touch brush brush kiss kiss, she boarded a very smelly and crowded 14 and went home to Mother.
The End.
