Present...
365 days of agony
365 days of solitude
365 days of saudade.
It will never stop.
It will be forever.
This is my punishment.
This is how it should be.
Can I follow you, Mu?
I don't want to be here anymore.
I want this to end.
A white lady came inside Kao's room pushing a cart full of unknown metal, and other bottled substances. The lady is a bit cautious pushing the cart because it might trigger Kao's mind. Kao was staring at the wall for a long time. "Kao..." the lady in white said. Kao turned around and saw the lady in white. He stared at the lady for a minute and noticed the shiny thing in the cart. He suddenly remembers how Earth's eyes shines before and dazzled his eyes. How bright it was whenever a ray of light hits Earth's eyes. Kao was dazzled by the shiny thing. He quickly went to grasped on it and stared at it. Looking at the the details of the shiny thing.
It was shining.
It was alluring.
It pleases Kao's eyes.
And most of all, it dazzled his eyes.
Kao pointed the metal thing onto his chest. His mind went blank and in not the right state of mind. He was allured by the shiny and pointy metal. He resembled it to his lover's eyes. It was sharp and shiny. He starts to vision things from his past. He starts to vision how happy they were that time. He decided to point it in his chest knowing that it's where shiny things and person belongs. "Help! Help!" Shouted the lady in white as she saw Kao was pointing the metal thing on his chest. The lady tried her best to remove it on Kao's hands. The lady felt chaotic at the moment. Kao went delusional and tightly grasped on the metal thing. "Mu! Mu!" Kao shouted. "Let's live forever!" Kao pleaded. "Didn't you say that we will be forever?" Tears went on Kao's eyes. The lady cannot hold it anymore. Kao is so strong. Good thing, before Kao could kill himself, a man quickly injected something on Kao's shoulder.
What's happening?
Why am I sleepy?
Did I do it?
Or was it another day of saudade?
Kao sluggishly closed his eyes. His mind and eyes can't take the medicine that were injected. He felt dizzy and made him fall asleep. The man placed Kao on his bed and tightly sleeping waiting for another day to come. As he always says,
Another day of saudade.
Now tell me
How can I forget it?
