The clock struck half pass 7.
I sat on the bus.
With the groceries I bought and a new bag yt passed to me,
From mom.
The bus moved along the quiet street.
Looking at my own reflection through the window.
Sighed.
I open my new bag impatiently.
There they were.
Some urgent stuff from home.
Lying neatly in their position.
Each and everyone.
From jeans to long jone to a t-shirt.
Colour pencils to A4 papers.
And a file.
I opened the file.
Some pictures with hy,su,yy,ano and friends,
And a letter.
From home.
Mom.
I tried to keep it after I reached home.
I'm afraid that I'll be in tears.
With the strangers on the bus.
And 2 bags plus 2 grocery bags.
My urge whispered by my ear.
Softly
And gently.
That everything will be alright.
I unfolded the letter.
Read every single words on it.
Happily as always.
It's from home.
Stars were twinkling.
I met some friends on my way back.
I placed the groceries in the right places.
And unpacked my bags.
I found a glue,vitamin C,water bottle and 3 plug keys in another pocket.
I opened the colour pencil box.
12 colour pencils.
All sharpened.
The letter is kept with the first letter mom wrote and the card from yy.
I was amazed by my mom.
Her attentive and caring nature.
What mothers will have.
Stomach grumbling.
I kept the letters.
Switched off the lights.
And cast at the drawer before I walked to the kitchen.
