Dusk Grey

Dusk Grey
Blushed her cheeks without words then disappeared at the end of the twilight



I took a wall clock showing at 10, it was too early to do anything. I turn on the tv that there is no interesting show after I change the channel. I looked at the flat screen while filling my stomach with bread that was always available, not forgetting a glass of warm chocolate milk. Not completely I understand the tv show, just to fill the void, so it does not feel lonely.


I opened my social media account to just look at the timeline and watch some videos. I saw a post of a beautiful woman, dressed up in a car. I stared many times to make sure I did not look wrong. The account belonged to one of my first Junior High friends. Nancy, a popular girl due to her status who can be "carried". It is almost impossible that no one knows him. I know her because almost every day everyone talks about her at that time.It was beautiful


I opened his profile, and I saw all the photos and videos he posted. All show luxury. My smile that I can't articulate on my own. "cook him until all the way can be brought "my words flinch. Of all the photos in the post, none showed anyone else but him. And I can still guess, he's still in my hometown.


Remembering a few years ago he was so humbled by friends, became a subject of ridicule. But never ignored it. Even every male friend who was close to him, always stamped had been enjoying the girl's body. I who just listen and do not want to know too much about him, I let anyone who invites me to talk about it I will only answer with a thin smile. I'm not pretentious or defending him, it's just that I don't want to judge him too much. It's his right and it's the way of life he chose.


Since graduating Junior High I have never met him, I am also friends and follow each other, but I rarely open social media to kepo, I open social media more often for positive posts, because I think there is no point in me taking care of other people's lives.

I feel better than I did this morning, probably because I'm lacking rest. And the whole day of lying his steam is quite resting my body.
