Pretty fucked up.

When It's Over
There are people who can walk away from you. Let them walk. I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left. And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person, it just means that their part in the story is over. And you've got to know when people's part in your story is over.

Little Conversation
I got jealous seeing you talking on the phone with someone that I didn't know. I didn't get jealous because you were talking on the phone – I got jealous because you were talking in a voice so low, with pervert-y smile all plastered on your face, your torso slouched on your chair. I hate it when I went into your cubicle, then you stopped talking, and asked me what I wanted, but the phone was still glued to your ear.
I was so pissed off that you told me you liked me, and yet you didn't do anything to prove anything that you said. I felt like banging my head on the mirrors in the washroom, just to wipe away my embarrassment, for having a tiny bit of jealousy for someone who didn't love me back.
I was so close to tell to the whole world that you asked me out for a fun ride in Bahrain, when your fun ride was merely a term of friends hanging out together. I got lucky that I didn't get invested too much in you, that when I did, I afraid couldn't find the way out.
I am thankful to you. At least the air gets a little pleasant, and the pretty wild flowers are still there to keep my heart warm.

The leaves were golden, bathed by the evening sun. Everybody left. Except me. The office was empty. Like my mind. An empty office gave me space to breath and an empty mind gave me peace.

"You can't run away from him"
"From who?"
"Liam"
"What on earth?"
"He's coming here. Working with the same company as yours"
"Why the need to tell me this?"
"It's just that both of you are meant to be together, even when you decided to flee away. Away from him"
"Have you heard of coincidence?"
"This is not a coincidence. This is one end of your fate, meets up another. You and him will complete a circle. You and him look like are meant to be together"
"Come on. He just got himself a baby"
"So?"
"So he can fuck off and don't bother me anymore"
"Tell that to yourself. Tell that to your heart"
Life has a way to reconcile with our past memories. And this apparently, with my pain.

When I thought the winter is over, the temperature plunged into freezing state all over again. It has been a mild 19 to 22 degrees and all of a sudden, it went below 8 this morning. This perhaps to continue until next week, then it's going to be warm and before we know it, the temperature will rise like crazy. Fifty five degrees celcius during the day is a little wild. Who knows it shoots up to 60 and breaks the thermometer?
It is downright eerie. But now, it is pretty cold. It reminds me of spring in London. And it is pretty much like spring right now, with yellow and red flowers sprouting all over the place. Those certainly add some color to this barren land.
Here in this country, there's a popular saying among Arabs.
Don't be like that, Abu Rasheed told me with his straight face. When you thought the summer is coming, and you trade off your jacket, and without warning, the cold wind comes again. Don't be like that, he told me once more.
Everything over here is unpredictable. Get your things under your belt. Who knows what might happen tomorrow?

Like a crazy person who sells his jacket in winter.
