scepticalabir: i was born in bangladesh but i moved to england as a baby. what about you?
mara's eyebrows raised. she had always wanted to go to england and now she was talking with someone who actually lived there. if this were a cartoon, her eyes would have bulged out of their sockets. yes, she knew he could be lying but this was so damn interesting!
psychxticmara: i was born in india and i stayed in india.
scepticalabir: you're in india...right now?
psychxticmara: yep. insomnia much. :')
scepticalabir: why do you have insomnia?
psychxticmara: melatonin deficiency, the doc says.

scepticalabir: well, that's really effed up. how do you survive?!
mara chuckled lightly and wrote a message.
psychxticmara: i don't, sabir.
