Where the road goes,
Where the day flows,
Only time."

The light glistened off the water droplets as the raindrops fell gently onto her cheeks, before trickling down her face and onto the track. She threw her head back, and admired the sky as her feet continued on, plodding nearer and nearer towards the finishing line. What a picturesque view! The rain pelting down from above with seams of light filtering through the occasional dark clouds. Rain and sunshine, all at one go. How nice.

Huff and Puff.

Huff and Puff.

"Come on, everyone! Let's sing a song as we run," her friend up ahead shouted, propelling everyone to push on, lifting the dampened spirits of the group.

"Twinkle, twinkle, little stars..."

Soon, everyone broke out into a chorus and were singing as though nothing else mattered. As though all their sorrows were washed away as they seeked solace in their run. Their footsteps became lighter and faster. She glanced towards her friends and laughed. Fancy the group of them running in the rain, with everyone else throwing curious glances as them. She simple love her friends! How blessed can one be?

---------------

Happy Birthday Ellie!

Happy, Happy day!!

Celebrated her friend's birthday at Orchard!

Time passes so fast.

18 years.

Flew past just like that.

Anyhow, sat down somewhere and they ate while she watched. The overwhelming aroma of their delicacies was enough to send her drooling, but it's okay. She's going to eat later, and besides, she cannot afford to eat anything. Went on to talk about some weird stuffs. Pretty hilarious. They pratically sent her into stitches! What funny friends. Too engrossed in their discussion, she nearly lost track of time! Thank goodness she had the sense to sneek a peek at a passer-by's watch.

Rushed off to meet him for dinner.

Spent her last few dollars on dinner there.

Had a splendid time, once again. Who can complain?

Love her life!

He looked sick.

"Everyone, look here!" her friend called out from below as she flipped out her handphone and started snapping away.

"Huh? Where's the big camera?" another friend remarked at the ludicrous situation they were in. They had waited for 15 minutes, but there still no sign of the photographer. What to do? They took things into their own hands, and decided to amuse themselves.

Snap!

Snap!

"Please, please, let us pose in front of the statue, we already have a camera man with us! It'll just take 5 minutes!" Mrs Chua pleaded with another teacher as the class gathered around her.

"But we have already took our positions!"

"Please! It's only 5 minutes! It won't take long!"

With much reluctance, the other teacher finally relented. Quickly, her class zoomed into the location and quickly took their positions, pointing at their teacher proudly as they beamed with delight.

Photo-taking was a blast!

Mrs Chua is truely the best teacher on earth!

"Clara, are you alright?"

She did not reply. Her friend's voice seemed to have faded into the backgroud as she stared at the message.

"Eh, something happened is it? Why do you look so stunned," her friend said again, nudging her slightly, shaking her out of her daze.

"Wha- what? Oh, no. Nothing. It's nothing," she said with a smile and picked up her bag.

"Come on, let's go. Everyone's leaving," she said, gesturing towards the exit.

She can't believe she actually let her guard down like that! Never, never, never again will she be so transparent. What a stupid thing to do!

Smile, smile, smile.

Stay, happy, happy, happy!

Which isn't that hard considering how beautiful life is.

Life is great!

The message?

Only 3 words.

I am sick.

"And who can say,

When the night sleeps,

If the night keeps,

All your heart."
