“Everyone, thank you.”
“When I wake up in the morning, a pure white curtain of lace is rustling in the breeze. The cuckoo clock in the room says it’s 7 o’clock, and Mom’s voice says, “You’ll be late if you don’t get up!”.”
“I’m still half asleep, and I think, “Please let me sleep for 3 more minutes.” I’m late for school every single day like clockwork, my teacher makes me stand out in the hallway, and I get failing grades on my tests.”
“The crepes we’d eat on the way home. We’d gaze dreamily at a party dress in a show window. The little things bring such joy, and I’m happy.”
“I wish…I wish I could go back to that kind of normal life. I want to go back.”
