i yearn for a touch, different than any kind. soft and gentle, warm like the morning sun. a touch anyone would love to have, would be lucky to feel. a touch, a hug, a kiss, and lullabies.
a lull to sleep, instead of songs that make me sad. a kiss on the cheek, a sign of affection that any person could ask for. a long and nice hug, a genuine and loving hug, a hug that can stop anyone's agonizing pain. a touch, a touch that can make one feel human, after going on for so long feeling nothing.
nothing. that's what i yearned for. nothing at all. who will lull me to sleep? kiss me goodnight? hug me when it's cold and touch me when i have a fright? a touch that will send me back home.
a touch where i can feel again.
a touch i will never get.
a touch no one would willingly give;
at least, to me.
what i yearned for is a fantasy. a fantasy that will never cross anyone's mind, because why would it?
a bright shine was cast upon my eyes, blinding me for two seconds before i shield my eyes. the glow stopped and i lowered my arm, looking for the culprit who disrupted my train of thought.
the window with its curtains pulled, the fabric swaying as if someone had just opened them a few moments ago. it left me puzzled for i was living alone, and my room was really dark.
taking it as a sign to get up and get productive, i got out of bed, stretching every muscle and pop every bone that can be popped. it was a saturday, and honestly it can be any day and it'll be like any same old day, unproductive and alone.
i lived alone, i mentioned that. i moved here, out of my parents' house so that i can go to college easily. it was summer break and after that it will be the finals.
i groaned at the thought, not caring what result i would get. i sucked, i just got lucky. lucky with my academics, this will be the time to show that i truly suck at it, and maybe everyone else will stop expect highly from me.
why was i even here? it didn't matter if i was a failure anyway, they'll move on to the next best person, the one who deserved it all. i don't, i was just here getting lucky and being babied, even though i kept getting lectured to grow up.
i don't want to grow up. it hurts.
a thump was heard just outside my bedroom door, and i rushed over to check what fell to the floor, wondering if someone got into the house.
with soft steps on my carpeted floor towards the door, i pondered on what i should do if there was an intruder inside.
immediate punch? i'll lag so nevermind. what if i just stare at them long enough until they realize i'm some creep who has no life? probably. i could run back and jump out through the window. awesome plan.
the knob was turned and the coast was clear, with a tissue roll that rolled down the staircase. what a waste of good tissue roll.
i stepped down, carefully trying to not step onto the rolled tissue, and saw the wide open front door. did someone actually got in?
i scanned the entire living room and found nothing out of the ordinary, except the tissue roll.
i'm not a skeptic, but i'm also not a believer. i don't believe in ghosts but i do believe in demons. for some reason, i never thought of living in some place haunted. i've been here for more than a year and nothing like this happened.
i live in a secluded area anyway, it was cheap and i was away from people, and nosy neighbours. nosy. i used to think it meant noisy.
i went over to close the door when i saw a tall figure in a yellow sweater standing outside the doorway, for some reason i never saw his shadow blocking the sunlight.
"excuse me?"
