Yeah, SMS

I could not reach him for three days. I had called him countless times but he would not answer his phone. I sent countless messages but he would not respond. So I stopped. However, every time my phone rang, I jumped thinking it was him. I travelled for work in the meantime. Then the bomb dropped.
"I'm going to be a father".

I like your hair

I was standing at a queue at the airport, waiting to go through immigration. I was travelling solo and the line was moving slow but I did not mind. I stood there drinking in the details of the hall and reading every advertising poster like I usually do. I wanted to remove my phone and scroll through Instagram but I had been on my laptop all through the flight so I decided to have some non-screen time while waiting.
