It was a shiny day, though it was hard to tell, because there were many buildings block the sun light. I woke up as usual, and I checked my cellphone, it was seven thirty. That was pretty early, so I went back to sleep for awhile.
I woke up again, and it was 9:45. I was still a little bit sleepy, but I did not want to go back to sleep anymore.
While I was brushing my teeth, I listened carefully for every sound. Because it usually had noisy sound that came from the apartment just next door, sometimes even shouting. It was really annoying, though they were doing pretty nice job for waking me up.
Today, I could not hear any of them, as always.
After brushing my teeth and washing my face, and having a chocolate bar and a yogurt for breakfast, I went out. I did not bring anything, even my wallet, because it would not be necessary.
The streets were as quiet as usual, good for a start of the day. Because it could calm my mind and I could be able to do some kind of meditation while I was walking on the street. What I usually thought were school and, yeah, about the future, like jobs. Yes, I was a student, a college student that still not knowing what would happened in the future.
And right now, I am in that future, a future that I just thinking about what can I eat for everyday.
There was no cars or buses. I used to hate those cars and buses, because I could always smell that smoke.
I saw that grocery store near where I lived, but I would not go inside. I decided to go to some other grocery stores, athough the stuff I would get were pretty much the same. But as you know, sometimes you need a different environment to fresh you a little bit, and it was important for me to go to different grocery store every day then, though I will not tell you the reason now.
And yeah, it would be my day, of searching food. Well, actually, I did not need to do that, I could go to any restaurant I liked everytime. However, I thought I needed to do something that could make me feel like… I am still iving here.
What the heck, It sucked. Totally, it sucks.
I know it sounds weird, but it was really the only thing I could do. I knew that I had school, but oh, no more, no more school. It did not mean that hate school, well, okay, sometimes. But to be honest, I liked school more than I hated it, because I could see friends, and, well, professors, and people…people.
Yes, people, I could see people!
If I could see them, I would not just wander around and try to find another grcocery store on the next street. This was so boring, and meaningless. Okay, it still has meaning, for keeping me alive, I think.
So you ask me again, why there were no cars and buses? Oh, why was it quiet on the street? Why is it so quiet everywhere?
Yes, there were not a single human being except me in this city. Well, to be more clear, I was probably the only living creature in this city. I did not even see any ugly rats running  happily on the streets.
It started becomeing warmer. It was almost noon.
I forgot grocery store for awhile and went inside a restaurant. I remembered that they had burger.
It must sound ridiculous, but I could always get food in any restaurant, though there were not even a shadow to prepare that food.
I had my burger, it was juicy and delicious, and yeah, as always.
I thought many ramdon stuff while I was walking. I was thinking that if I would tried being naked and run 10 blocks, would it be a miracle happening after? I mean, maybe the world would be normal again next day if I would did it. Well, there were nothing to be shamed of, so why not?
But I never done this, I just could not do it, so do not try to persuade me to do it now, or I will punch on your face really hard.
I forgot that ridiculous thought and started walking on a road.
I really did not remember how long it had been, and I still do not remember how long it has been. It felt like it had been at least three months, and it feels endless. I did not check the date, because I was afraid that if I checked, I would know it might be just few weeks, or even just few days, I would not stand it anymore. Well I still have my watch keep inside my drawer. No, I did not throw it away, it was a gift bought by my mom, so why will I do that? It is a thing that makes part of you. I mean, it represents a certain moment, a memory, and it is part of what makes who you are. It is important, and it is very important for me.
I need it for reminding me not about time, but about me.
I continued this kind of life for a little while, and still do, and was wishing it would end someday, and still do, but no use.
I started thinking that perhaps, the world was leaving me behind, but what did it mean?Oh, am I actually somehow in the world that is for things that is not good for the world? Wait a second, what is this strange thought?
Probably even I die today, or some other day, the world would be back to normal, but so what? I mean, it would not do much for me because I would not be able to see it, so the most possible end would be…the world would be just like this even after my death, I think.
What? You say it sounds selfish? Oh, I cannot blame you, I think I become a little bit selfish those days, seriously, so I do not care.
I had thought out some way to kill my self. Well, there was no one could blame me for commiting suicide, and I would be relieved from this. But no, I couldn’t. I just had no guts to kill my self. Even I set a situation that if I would kill myself, the world would back to its way, no use.
What? You say I just said I do not care? I mean I set a situation to help myself to kill myself, but it was not successful. I was care about it, well, kind of.
Seems like it starts becoming dark, time for me to go back. What? You say why not trying to leave in a fancy hotel here? What for? Oh…well, actually, I thought about that idea before, but you know what? I did not know how to get the room key. And you ask me why? Think about it, there was no one in the counter! How can I get that key? Well I have to tell you I could not get the key although I went inside the counter… Hey, stop that staring, you make me feel so stupid! And why not just go back that apartment? I had my memory and life there, I can feel the real life inside that little place.
Oh, the sky…
The sky I see is like the one that I saw the day before the thing happened… Never mind, I am just being nostalgic.
So I think it is time to say goodbye to you, though I do not know you and you do not know me, but I think it is easier to talk about things like that to a stanger. What do you think? Anyway, nice talk, and farewell.
Maybe I will live like this for a while, and someday I will probably have guts to finish my own life, and it will be it. Well, probably not, forget about the guts thing. I will live like this, just like this, and it will be the end of it.
