Chapter 3 – Roses

Song: Waited all night for you to come home, I always hated sleeping alone, Watching the roses wither away – I waited all night yeah you never came…

Monday, today is the first day of the new semester. I was supposed to wake up by 6am but looking at my phone’s clock it was still early. I had a bad dream, people were looking down on me and throwing shame while I was helpless on the ground.

I took a deep breath, prolly one of the deepest that I could ever get.

I went to my study table and check out the box full of letter envelopes.

💌 #Letter no.2

Hey hey hey!!!

I didn’t know you will be needing this letter immediately after opening the first one (did I get it right?).

I remember during the Open School Activity I went back to our dorm really late. I found you there waiting and I said sorry multiple times. I remember how you hated it because you are getting bad dreams that’s why I promised to always come home and be with you. Until now that I can’t be with you…

You know how I always wanted to be there with you, watch you and take good care of you right!?

Just hang on tight and be strong –

I know you are strong!

Lift your head up and be proud! I’ll be watching you Bunny,

New

Unconsciously a playlist buried in my head kick in and play the song Roses in my head.

I took my phone and shoot a message to New. I said I hated that the letter was just really timely… I tried to keep up with my emotions but right at that moment I just break down and cry. I feel so alone and my dream was just hitting my emotions where I kept all of my sorrow hidden.

First day in the Uni…

“Hi I am Paige Thongsuk Tadashi, I am transferring from Tokyo University as an exchange student here major in directing and creative writing” I took a bow as a sign of respect as they all press there palm together as if saying a prayer and said sawadee.

Some of them raised their hands as the homeroom teacher open the table for questions and I welcomed all of them.

Have you gone on a tour hear already? (I haven’t yet. But, I heard our Uni offers some educational tours which I am looking forward)

Why did you choose your major? (I like creating films that reflects life in general and explores all genre as well)

Why are you good in Thai? (My mom is a Thai)

Are you single? (I am not seeing anyone now)

The homeroom called for an off as she noticed the questions are getting more personal. (I thank her for saving my @ss)

Over the lunch break I look for a quiet place where I can rest. When I went out of the classroom my homeroom teacher approached me and asked if I am okay because I am looking pale. I said there’s nothing to worry, I am just adjusting on the new environment.

I found a good spot, I take a sit on a bleacher while looking at the green scenery. I took my phone and plugged in my headphone.
