Oceans Apart

First One

Clara stand in front of the post box clutching the letter in her hand anxiety comes over her like a rush of heat. Causing her hand to become clamy with fear "what is there to be afraid of?" She laughed to herself.

Deep breaths in and out, her chest heaving up and down she gain the courage to put the letter in. Clara stood there in awe her eyes widen and lips parted time seemed to slow down. She closed her eyes feeling the wind blowing against her face, little goosebumps raise on her arms "be safe" the words escaped her mouth lightly almost like her last breath.

Clara opened her hazel eyes and stared out into the city. The sun hasn't set yet but creates such a beautiful orange and red tint throughout the sky. She wonder how many people are looking up at the same sky right now are they happy? Are they with their love ones? There's nothing that she desires more that someone to stand by her side forever and love eachother unconditionally. Her stomach drop like a stone sinking into the dept of the ocean and her face sour.

Across the street she should see the girls Clara share a house with. They are beyond beautiful but like they say beauty may be on the outside but doesn't mean it apply to the inside. She never met a more spiteful or vindictive people before. Clara turns the other way trying to avoid meeting them she tends to find her actions cowardly these day loosing a part of her everyday. She feels trap like a mouse in a cage running but never getting anywhere.

Left, right, left and right she turns into smaller streets not really knowing where to go. She saw a bench under a tree surrounded by flowers and fairy lights. How pretty she thought some time she just want someone to talk about how she's feeling but no one will never understand. It's better not to burden them with these silly feelings she thought to herself staring out into the river ahead of her. The water crashes into the rocks the sounds soothed her.
Her hair flickers in the gentle evening wind the air cools down more and people rushed to get home and be inside in the warmth. These days the cold doesn't bother her anymore she likes to be by herself and her thoughts. People exhausted her and the majority of time Clara ends up studying or going to the gym. She root in her pocket pass the sweets wrapper's in her pocket trying to find her phone 8.46pm lit up the screen.

"I guess it's time to head back" with that she sat up and stare out into the river for the last time and starts her journey. She plugs in her earphones listening to Spring day by BTS. She hums the melody as she walked down the low lighted street.
