How does it feels to know that your mother left you at the doorstep of some orphanage as soon as you were born? abandoning you?
This story is about a 22 year old orphan girl, who spent her childhood in an orphanage having no friends. She never had...
I opened my eyes softly, the sun peeking through the window, curtains waving from the slow wind and birds are chirping. I smiled rubbing my eyes and sat up on the bed leaning a little on the headboard, clutching a pillow placing it on my lap.
It's been a while since I last enjoy this wonderful morning. With all work stuffs, studies, orphanage and yes of course Mr. Maxwell, I never got time for myself. The day I met him, my life took a different turn, a turn that I have never taken before.
This new feelings, emotions are so overwhelming sometimes. It's like my whole mood depends upon him and yet I still don't know if he feels the same. Obviously he doesn't, look at him, he have everything and look at me, an average girl. There will be hundreds and thousands of girls like me, falling on his foot.
Ugh! Seriously Olivia, you have mastered in ruining your mood yourself. Why do you always have to think about him and compare yourself? I scolded myself
Huffing at my stupidity, I climbed down of the bed and went to take a shower. I also grabbed my phone on my way to the bathroom.
I opened my playlist and searched for song that would lift my mood up, then my eyes fell upon a song that I used to love as a kid, "what makes you beautiful" by 1D. As a kid I used to dance all around singing this song. Acting as if I am in a concert surrounded by crowds and they are singing along with me. I miss being a kid.
Click on the play button, the song started. I switch the shower on, grabbing a bottle of shampoo and apply some on my hair.
"Everyone else in the room can see it,
Everyone else, but you, ooh
Baby, you light up my world like nobody else
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed
But when you smile at the ground, it ain't hard to tell
You don't know, oh-oh
You don't know you're beautiful"
I danced around, singing on top of my lungs, laughing when I nearly tripped. When the song was over a next song started to play, "Be kind" by Halsey. Ohh I love this song.
I danced and sing along for a while. As I done with the shower, I dried myself off with the towel, wrapping one around my hair and the other on my body. I grabbed my phone and walked inside my room.
I had this smile, while I was getting ready and a thought kept coming in my mind is that, your mood, your reaction all depends upon you. It's you who can ruin your mood yourself and it's only you who can lift your mood yourself, because you have that power and don't let other people have that power on you.

"Freyaa, you coming down or should I eat all the breakfast?" I shouted from downstairs so she could hear me.
"Yes yes coming" she rushed downstairs while pulling her hair back in a ponytail.
