It was suffocating. Everything seemed to be spiralling. I tried to breath. I literally tried but I was struggling really hard. Sometimes even the most obvious and easiest things seem to be too tiresome and energy-consuming. And the same was happening to me.
Sometimes life lands us in such a situation that we fail to grasp the reality. Well the same happened to me when I was delivering the important documents of my boss. It was an urgent document that needed to be signed by one of our most prestigious clients. He was about to board a flight in a couple of hours. I had to rush or else I would have to bear the brunt of my Boss' anger. So I immediately left after swallowing my lunch. Yup I did not have time to devour it and enjoy it so I did what needed to be done.
During the journey, my gallbladder protested and roared like a lion so I decided to take a break and take a dump. I thought the way I was feeling so full and unable to even sit on a comfortable leather seat of my car that it would just slide in a minute like money out of ATM machine and then I would continue my journey in a jiffy. At that time it felt easy peasy.
Then I checked the time on my phone and OPPS another disaster. My battery was about to die so I just plugged it in my car to charge it. And rushed to the nearest mall for a washroom visit. After 90 seconds, I was sitting in a washroom and relieving my urine. After peeing came the hard stage and I just remembered how quickly I ate my lunch which had resulted in indigestion. The thought of constipation struck like a thunderstorm ⚡⚡⚡⚡
Then another wrestling with my nerves started. After twenty minutes of strenuous exercise I was finally done with the smelly monster who was now eying me in the flush. I felt relief but it lasted for mere a second when my eyes landed on the tissue roll stand. Yup it was just a stand without any tissue. I was sitting alone in a washroom in the last corner of the store. There was no one nearby. My phone was in my car. I was running late. I was definitely going to be scolded by my boss. I was doomed. My humiliating future danced before my eyes. I had to do something. And then I did.
After a minute, I was out of that washroom with gross written all over my face and my favorite tie in the dustbin of that washroom........ It was my favorite tie.
