happy/unhappy 21st
Current mood: scared
i realized something today..ive never been so alone.never have i ever been just by myself for days. ive always had people around me yet ive been a loner at heart and today when there is nobody arnd i feel like somebody is ripping parts of me apart.
today is my 21st birthday and guess what…i am completely by myself in my apartment. my bf had to leave this morning and that by itself is terrible in my opinion. im sooo used to seeing his face before falling asleep and waking up and seeing him first in the morning that when i dont, i go crazy. my friends, well i have very very very few friends – just a few people i bother keeping in touch with. to say the truth if it wasnt for angad and jr, i have no “friends” at winthrop. so yeh there’s nobody i can go to and confess that im scared to stay in my apartment just by myself can i please stay here for the nite?
sooo angad is 21 today as well. its “our” birthday and so he had to leave for greenville. jr is at his place he might come by later.i dont think he knows its my bday. and being the person i am, i sure wont tell him. in my opinion, birthdays shudnt be as important as they are today. but yeh something abt my birthday makes me really really sad.
i talked to my parents this morning and my dad told me to get a cake. i miss my home soo much today. even if there’s nobody home, even if its just me and the maids – home is home. and when theres my mom and dad and my bhaiya and my bhabi, its the perfect family.
and then there are my friends who always remember my birthday. there’s priti, no matter where in the world she is she always calls me on my birthday, there’s zubi, d, fahim, zahid n a couple o others who know it by heart and never forget to wish me. and there are those who remember my bday as the day after 16th dec (victory day) and wish me. and then there are real friends. LAMU for one. she never forgets!she just never forgets!
she always comes to visit me on my bday, brings whatever she can just makes me soo happy. and there’s iram, i miss her so much today coz during those years when there was nobody beside me on my bday - she was there. maybe i should mention tanisha here – last yr on this day we celebrated with alcohol and weed in bangladesh. today we dont even talk.
life….teaches us soo much.doesnt it?when i look back at myself over the past 21 yrs..i cant describe how much ive changed. from the happy go lucky rohena to a bitter apathetic rohena- from the extremely depressed anorexic rohena to the madly in love with ra rohena…
ra gave me the sweetest surprise last nite. i dont think anybody has ever tried to make me happy the way ra does. i cant thank Allah enough for giving me all that He has. He’s given me ra and i think that’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me. when i think of the future it scares me so much. i can never hurt ra – if i do, i deserve the worst punishment possible.
soooooo with no ra, no angad, no jr, no lamu, no iram, no moo, no tanisha, no shafi, rupali, shonali, anjoli, bobita, no jhal muri and cha, no birthday cake, i think i shud go cry myself to sleep now.
its me rohena, officially 21 saying, peace out. |
