Girl from that small cubicle is writing again. Today, she was planning to resign from her job. However, his word smacked her in the face; made her feel like the biggest coward in the world. She might sound dumb when she kept quiet instead of fighting back, but she did not want to be rude to anyone. She believed what goes around comes around and thus she did not want any bad thing to strike back. Maybe she thought too far and hesitated too much, it was that stuff that held her back. Maybe… So, she stayed again, just for another week. By weekend, she will be meeting the boss of that part time job introduced by a senior. Then, she will decide again. Her life is somehow miserable but yet interesting.
Today, she decided to learn the seventh language, which is the language that her boyfriend speaks, Tamil. Her mother tongue is Mandarin even though she is not from China, and so is he. He is not from India either, but he is Tamil. She had interest in learning that language when she was in high school; she learnt some from her friends indeed. But that was maybe 10 years ago. It’s not easy to learn a new language at her age, and yet she is confident. Tamil language is like drawing. The alphabets look almost like the pattern on fancy fences. She learnt the vocal today, tried to memorize some of them. After 4 years of relationship, he reminded that she needs to learn his language in order to move to another level. She agreed. And so she started to learn.
She will speak her 7th language very soon.
Perhaps those negativity will go away when she switch her attention to a new thing.
