Dream apartment

Image
I wanna own my cute little apartment one day. I would sit beside the window  with my cup of matcha tea and watch people go about their daily lives . I don't imagine it to be all fancy and bougee, but really warm and beautiful. I wanna bake cakes at 2am and take long showers at 3am. I would just lay down in my tub and get lost in my thoughts. I would sit by the big window of my home , look outside and see snow falling down and how the sun enters my room when it's summer and how the leaves change color when it is fall. I'm gonna have a lot of scented candles and they're gonna always make my place smell sweet . Id host parties , girls night and Ill make my home into a place where people close to me can come , relax and make it their safe space. I would have a kitchen where most of my crockery would be cobalt blue because something about that color makes me feel calm.

MOTHER & DAUGHTER

  Growing up as a daughter, I had a complex relationship with my mother. I used to never understand why she was being so strict and we would have fights over the silliest of the reasons. I used to hate her as a teenager. It was hard being the kind of daughter my mother wanted me to be because we had completely different values and outlook on life.

A corner of the newspaper

When I was in 12th grade,I used to travel by bus (public transport) . So there was this boy , from my same school who was probably 6 years younger than me, who took the same bus as mine . He would get into the bus about seven - eight stops after mine . I always admired him . He was a really lean and short boy . He used to travel with his sister who was also young, probably 2-3 years older than him . I used to watch both of them , the way they held each other's hands while getting onto the bus , paying for the tickets . It was fun to watch them . The boy had one of his ears pierced. Since we are from the same school, sometimes he used to come and ask me for coins or change while I was waiting for the bus and I used to tell him no worries I can pay for them too .As I said before he had a special place in my heart , I don't know why. He was like a little brother who I always wanted .  Then I graduated school and went to uni . I completely forgot about this boy. One day my mom cam...
