Spending the last three weeks in solemnity almost felt impossible and surreal. It almost felt like I have gotten so used to ups and downs to the point where ups seem unrealistic. 

The house was unusually quiet. Probably because I was alone at home or because today was Saturday. 

I sat by my window side, staring outside at nothing in particular except for the trees that were blown by the morning breeze in a side-to-side motion, in such a way that caught my attention. 

My mind had been blank for a while except now that his thoughts crossed my mind. 

My week had not gone by without Richard popping out here and there from nowhere in particular. He became part of my day that I almost got used to him but at the expense of something. I had finally agreed to go out on a date with him. 

He was relentless and not willing to give up even though I was been plain and direct with him still, he never stopped to be at my heels.
