Just Inner Turmoil
When I got home, I cooled off for a bit before I had a long, warm shower to relieve some of the tension and try to clear my mind. My mind was so mixed up right now that I didn't want to think anymore. I just wanted to get some sleep and forget about the events of the day. Maybe another day, I could deal with them.
When I stepped under the warm shower, I let the soothing water envelop me like a gentle hug. I closed my eyes, feeling the tension of the day melt away with each droplet. The warmth seeped into my muscles, relaxing my shoulders and my mind. However, as the water cascaded down my face, my thoughts began to unravel again. Tyler's lips on mine, the spark of familiarity and the rush of emotions. It all swirled together in a jumbled mix. I tried to breathe deeply as I inhaled the steamy air and exhaled my doubts. But they lingered, refusing to be washed away.
