Mysteriously Beautiful

Chapter 2: Stars Gently falls into land

Aleca did not reply at all.
She lay on her bed looking at the ceiling for a long time.

She sees memories.
She don't force herself to forget it thus she face the reality with firmness and braviness.

Who could ever wonder what she feels ?
Who cares anyway?

She admits she's lonely but its no big deal.
She is not the only girl in the world who suffers the same way.

Loneliness haunts everyone.

Its upto you if you'll let it conquer your good virtue and spirit.

She close her eyes and suddenly fall asleep.
She is used to it. Insomnia has no power over her because she accept reality wholeheartedly.

Its the way life revolves.
She would just think as it is.

She woke up just as before the clock alarmed.

Body clock. Her body knows when to wake up. She discipline herself more than how she was raise as a child by her deseased mom.

She boils water and brewed some coffee.
She made three pancakes while still wearing pajamas. She looks cute.
She topped it with syrups and condense milk and brought it on a small round table on the terrace. The sun had not yet rising. It was still dark but the lights from the city seems like image of stars that twinkles as it gently falls into the land.

She ate half of one of those pancakes and gave the rest to Tayk , her pet dog.

Tayk took a bite and then ate it all.
He was always locked up inside his owner's apartment. Tayk knew that his owner would again leave him alone all day.
Tayk was used to it.

Aleca had placed a bowl-full of dog foods on Tayk's feedplate. It would be his lunch if she had not visited him at noon.

No worries. Gellen might feed Tayk, IF she knew Aleca would not be home at break time. She knew where Aleca put her keys. It was buried on the sandy soil of her little pots of cactus arranged neatly besides her doorway.

She stood and get ready for work.
After an hour and a half. She was now on her way to the restaurant where she works part time as a waitress.

She had sideline jobs at night and attend class three days a week. She choose a nice schedule.

She had been doing the job since she decided to build her new life.The time when she decided to be independent.

Independent?

She had no choice.

She had to live a life on her own.

Life is playful and you had to play with it wisely. You should have not give it a chance to trick you.

Aleca was a brave woman but does anyone sees her weaknesses?

She talks less.

She works hard to pay for her bills. Tried hard to survive and have a normal life . The kind of life she wished for.

She kept on making herself busy so she would not have the time to reminence the past.

It her past that painful?
