Q: Unleashing them monkeys on your precious banana farm!

V.
Second year in Sunway University, Sun-U Anime Club meeting. I have fifteen minutes to finish eating my tuna sandwich and write that proposal for Animangaki before coming face to face with grizzly where we'll eventually seal a contract promising hard work and pay-offs. The sweat stains my cheek and they fall droplets on the squared grey tile. I think of roulette and poker cards. Footsteps flooding into Audi 4 as I see their oiled cheery face, chattering like there's not a care in the world. That sanctuary existed through a shared interest and the willingness to stray from the norm. A girl jumps on me and wipes away any sign of the salty residue. This gesture resulted into a heartbreak echoing from wall to wall, corner to corner. I wonder if that boy screamed in his dream. If he saw this exact scene replay or if he was forced to go for meetings again.

Setting fire to the rain,
Vonnie S.
