It's 10am on a Monday morning and unusually dark. I hear the agitated thunder roaring, I see the grey clouds hanging up there so dull and lifeless, I can almost feel the chill outside. The trees stood motionless, not a wind in the air. Somehow I imagine those leaves trembling, not in coldness but fear. It's a dangerous morning. No birds are flying across the sky, maybe they are feeling it too. The one that did, scurried across hastily.
The seat besides me is empty. It was 9:45am when I knew my colleague wasn't coming in anymore, some minutes later someone else confirmed the news. Is he also feeling the danger on this Monday morning??
10 minutes has passed. I see white. The sky has brightened up slightly, somehow the blanket of grey is making everything look gloomy. So has my mood, and Spongebob and the guys (his new companions) whom are sitting with me. I stared several hundreds metres ahead and saw the place I was working almost a year ago. That grey building with others stood among the light grey sky, with a mass of dark clouds hovering over them. I can almost see the rain coming down hard. Heavily.
The rain has ceased. The fallen yellow leaves seem to be running along with the cars as they passed by. The roads are wet, the puddles of water mirrored the lives of the passer-bys. I feel a contraction in my stomach... and I know it's asking me for another piece of "button-size" chocolate.
