How pretty the view looked from the top of the roof. Shaking my legs back and forth I was staring down.

Cold wind hit my face slowly as I relaxed. For some reasons, I needed get out of the mess that was going on from so long.

" Mimmi, come downstairs, help us out to pack the bag.. " Mom yelled.

I sighed. Can't I go back to past again when I had much time to think about what would I be doing in future? But time flew fast. And yes, I'm going to join my new college tomorrow.

"Coming!" I said and went downstairs.

"God, Nisha, you can't even do anything properly, can you? I have told you to keep Mimmi's files together in that bag, not in this. I'm so done with you Nisha.. " Dad shouted at mom suddenly.

Mom looked awfully tired and shameful for the mistake she unknowingly did.

" Akash, I'm sorry. I'd manage it okay? " She softly said.

"No need. 'I would manage it' - as if you're so useful! " Dad mockingly said with anger in his voice.

"Dad. You guys go, I'd pack my stuffs by myself. Don't worry. " I interrupted. I couldn't help but do it. I couldn't see my mom getting this harsh behavior anymore. I knew she was tired, she needed rest.

"You? You'd manage? You can't even manage yourself if I'm not wrong.. " He joked. And i was used to it.

I quietly went to pack my stuffs and gestured to mom that she should leave.

I stuffed all the clothes inside my bag, the files, my essential things.. Everything.

And my 𝘎𝘶𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘳.

The only thing that could handle me properly, my best friend,.. My guitar.

It was almost 3 am. I couldn't sleep after trying hard. Something was bothering me a lot, and I tried to act like I didn't know why I'm feeling restless. 

I told myself it was okay when I knew it was not. It could never be.

But I was determined that everything would be fine soon. And also, pushing yourself a little bit more doesn't kill you. Does it?

Closing my eyes I thought about that mere wish of mine that I had to kill. But I didn't have any choice left at this point.

It was my fault. Completely mine. And I made myself understand that it couldn't go any better; instead I should be grateful for what I have in my life now. And I truly was. I was grateful that atleast my life was going on, I didn't stop.

Smiling a little my eyes got a little teary knowing how much disappointed the little me would have been, if she knew I was going to be like this.

But yet, I had no option.

I have to do it. For my sake.

'I would be alright' I told myself that I have been telling from the past few years.

Somehow my eyes felt heavy, I didn't know I slept.

So , hi. Thank you for coming here to y'all bubs! So this is my first ever book that I'm gonna write really seriously, lol. (:

Hope you'd like it. I know I should have posted their aesthetics, and some information about the characters. But it's my very first book and i didn't have that much idea, so please forgive me for that.

Thank you, ily! 🦋🍃.
