As Jia flipped through the pages of her old diary, the scribbles on the corner made her smile. She could see her old self who was ready to unravel every wonder around her reflecting through the pages. It's only been a few years but now it seems as it was long ago. Growing up changed her a lot, from old cheerful self to someone cynical.
The mere thought of the change made the smile vanish.
Her eyes fell on the clock on the living room for a mere second, and she closed the diary as if she was reminded of something.
As she put on her airpods to attend a call from the client, she sighed expecting a long and mundane day ahead. Then she put on a fake smile, something in which she has become an expert.
.......
Aren't we all at some point faking our emotions to just get by the day somehow. But at times we get hit by the reality.
Maybe God just want to remind us once in a while that when he created us, he made us as someone capable to dream and the world just cut off our wings or we forgot to fly towards our dream.
