🌙Wanderlust°

•P r o l o g u e•

I stared outside my window again, the usual scenery is presented in front of my eyes, consisting of childrens playing around at the park, the birds flying and chirping, the sounds of cars moving from one place to another and the sounds of people talking in this busy neighborhood.

I always wondered how exciting it will be if I was joining the children's game of hide and seek, how I've longed for having a road trip with my family. But that won't happen anytime soon..because my main goal is to keep studying...and studying...and studying...

In this huge mansion of mine, all I do is gather information, and drown myself in knowledge. I rarely have visitors, even if I do, most of them are my family members, whom expected good stories of my achievement so far.

I barely have time to communicate with my friends, not that I have much but..I do have some. My parents confiscated my phone, so I have 0 access to the internet, and my whole life consists of me being locked up in my room, thus I barely have contact with sunlight nor the society.

Being only 15 years of age, I wanted nothing in the form of money, a new phone, a pet or other teenage related things. I just wanted freedom.

I wanted to know what's it like being outside my house again... I don't mind if it's just a stroll around the park, or just a car trip to the grocery store.

I don't have such big dreams or burdensome requests... I just wanted to go outside this mansion, outside this life I was told to live in. School isn't enough of a freedom to me, I wanted more...

Call me selfish but..it's my rights to do whatever I want. One day, I will run away from my so-called 'perfectly planned' life and I will start my own life that I've wished for. Without high expectations, without other people's big plans for me. Just me, being myself, without any burden on my shoulders.

I want to be free..
and that's the only thing I've wished for....nothing more....nothing less
