Chapter 1.
Dearest Electronlibrè,
I am not good at beginning a conversation. I know that many people these days begin with a phrase like that and carry on with the conversation effortlessly, leaving behind the ones who genuinely mean what they say, like myself, far behind in several aspects of social life. Now, since that social life which we all cherished seems to be a distant memory, I thought maybe, just maybe, the results I get after a sincere "Hello" would be different and perhaps a new high in my personal life. So,
Hello,
I am Azhar. Like many around the globe I spend my days lazing around and binge watching stuff, I never thought I'd be interested in, all this while claiming to be 'working from home'. I also should actually be preparing for the postponed B. Com exams I was supposed to appear for in March, but weirdly enough, unlike my former self, I'm waiting for the final decision to be made regarding the dates and have in some utterly irrational way convinced myself that I only need to start preparing thereafter.
On top of all that, I'm stuck with my parents. They're literally present at all times and that my dear friend, makes life hell. Don't get me wrong, I do love them a lot, but they were never by my side, especially Pappa, when I was growing up and now it's simply annoying. It's true that the closer we get to people we adore, the more prominent their vices become.
I guess, you get the gist of things. I'd be delighted to hear from you. I know it's been only about me, but as I'd I mentioned earlier, conversations are not my thing. Could you teach me a thing or two? Are you willing to risk your precious time? Decisions are difficult to make, but rest assured that whatever they may be, they'll accepted with the respect they deserve and the civility you deserve.
Yours truly,
Azhar.
Chapter 2
Dear Azhar,
The letter was truly great. Am not a great conversationalist either. Let's get together and learn through these letters then!! But your words were on the right point. We both are on the same page I guess. I have my parents around too all the time. I love them so much but they are emotionally draining me. Maybe I'll regret saying this in the future, but for now what you said is exactly how I feel.
About the social life, l don't miss it because am not a very social human. I like to be indoors. And that might be the reason it took time for me to go crazy staying in. Haha ;)
The laying around lazy and binge watching stuff are also the same here. But lately l just feel a strong aversion to whatever is happening. Maybe it's the fact that made me realize, l have no talents to build on or everything is just ordinary for me. Being or ending up ordinary is one of the things that l am scared of. But that's what l am. Am ordinary. Hehe. I tried to read but that too went into the woods. It's this total disorientation that l feel, but can't explain.
I am so happy to read a fully written, properly punctuated letter. You have respected the idea of the App. Am so glad that you wrote to me.
I also am a student like you. A fashion technology student with no idea what to do after the course. Our exams aren't like pen paper exams so preparation time will always be given, since we have to present our work in the Jury.
I miss my college and my couple friends there. I never in my life thought I would use that sentence. Always felt like hell in college but the lockdown made me recall many other good memories too.
I'll end with couple questions for you to start over for the next letter.
What are your interests and desires ?
Tell me 5 things that make up your world..
Feel free to write any rubbish you feel like. Wishing a great day.
Hoping for a reply and more getting to know stories.. ;)
Yours truly,
Rosey.
