[sodium reacts VIOLENTLY with cold water]ApocalypseI woke up this morning with great reluctance, but thank God its the June holidays. Otherwise I'll start my short skit and act like I'm sick just to skip school. I wore my specs and then stared blankly at the ceiling, thinking of what to do. I guess I have to continue on my mountain height homework.
After bathing and having my non-so-mouth-watering breakfast, I dragged my body to the study room and chucked myself on the chair and started doing my homework. My mind wasn't focused on the Physics 5Year Series exam paper but instead on life.
I was thinking of me in a place I have always dreamt of. A place by the calming sea, a place where the flowers bloom and a place where people really enjoy themself. Just imagine yourself in board shorts, sleeveless shirt and a black neck band, sitting on the floor of the beach while watching children playing merrily. Then came a group of college students in their beach attire and starting to play a game of beach volleyball. Just imagine.
Unfortunately I came back to reality and saw the sky turning dark as the clouds marched in. Instantaneously, I got up and started closing all the windows myself since nobody else is at home. Today is different. Very different. Strangely, the clouds that conquered the sky began to rotate in a circle. Flocks of birds were then seen flying in the same direction and residents came out of their homes, looking out to the sky in curiosity. Drops of water started to fall and soon the morning was dark and stormy. I felt fear hugging me. A fear that something bad might happen. I threw myself on my bed and clutched my favourite pillow. Strange 'whooshing' noises began to be heard. "God, help me...I'm really scared." My heart began to pump faster as I felt a cold sensation runnning from my toes to the end of my hair. I dared myself to peep out of the window. I was very much taken aback when I saw people walking lazily towards the carpark. I got scared. Really scared.
After a few minutes of torture by the sights and sounds on that very morning, I saw the world starting to fall on me. The ceiling began to crack. I took this precious moment to reflect. The sins and good deeds I have done. Tears of fear ran down my shut eyes. I remembered, the moments of folly and the moments of joy. I remembered, of all the ups and downs my family went through. I remembered, about the days that I wasn't on good terms with the members of my family. I remembered, of the days when we came back together again. I cried even louder as I reflect on the things I did to my mom. The tears and joy I brought her. There's just so much things I haven't done for her. Too much. I regret. I should have been a more filial son. But it's too late now.
The time I wished would happen like in another few years time came too soon. It's here. Here now. The last day. The apocalypse.
