“I think I'm refusing to feel anything, securing myself with numbness, because my stay here is only temporary. And to feel joy would only make the pain of separation worse when I finally leave. The feeling is like that of deciding whether or not to forgive a cheating lover.”

I love these lines.

Until when are you gonna be here?

Can relate to your displacement and concerns re: money and costs of living here vs. Small Town. Also why I don't go out much, lahat mahal! Though for displacement, maybe it's because of the current circumstances and company. Could be better next time around 💗

I hope Father isn't getting conned 🤞
