"How are you?",
Am I supposed to say "I'm fine, thank you" ?
When I learnt English,
What they teached me was,

Circle the correct answer.

1. How are you?
A. You are welcome.
B. I'm fine, thank you.
C. It is sunny out there.
D. I will be seven in two days.

I was so naïve back then,
Probably most of us will choose B as the answer,
Because,
That was what we learnt.

Now,
I'm thinking,
Should I really answer that for the question?
I don't want anyone to worry about me.

Lies spread out from my mouth,
"Normal though",
It indeed is.
But you can not avoid the pain of telling lies,
Maybe you do not have the feelings,
Probably because all of it numb,
Can not blame you.

You have your own reason to feel like that.
