Woman of the Universe #10



There she was, flying up in the sky with the clouds, looking at the majestic world down below. Oh! How many colours lit up through the clouds when the sun began to set. From a distance she heard a faint sound, ‘ep…ep..’, “What could it be?” She thought to herself as she began to follow it. As she got closer, the sound started to become clearer and clearer, “Beep….Beep….Beep” She suddenly woke up and realized that the sound was her alarm, which meant, it was 8am, “Urghh, five minutes more” she said and hit snooze.

Ten minutes later, she decided to finally wake up as she couldn’t afford missing the bus to work, not today. She stepped out of bed, drew the curtains off the window and felt the crisp cool breeze with some mellow sunshine touch her skin. “Ah! What a perfect day!” She exclaimed and went on with her daily chores. She enjoyed herself a long warm bath with some good old music playing in the back on her player. With that bath, she felt like all her senses were awake! Now, she was ready to take on the world!
She decided to put on her favourite sundress, which was made of the softest cotton, to enjoy the perfect weather. She stepped out of the house and cherished every moment of the beautiful day. A few steps ahead and she smelled the aroma of the best coffee in the city, the coffee she would have every morning while on her way. Sipping on her coffee, she kept walking down the street, just a few steps ahead she smelled the most breathtaking fragrance and knew where she was. She greeted The old flower shop lady and bought herself a rose, just like she did every morning.
Soon, she got into the bus and to work. Today, they were to perform at a birthday party at the park. “Perfect choice of outfit” she thought to herself. They were a group of seven exceptionally gifted women of all ages, who could make any song sound like a hymn played in heaven. Everyday they would go and brighten up people’s celebrations, be it a birthday or a wedding, they would make it divine
After the performance at the park, she and her friends decided to have a celebration of their own, at a new place down the street which served absolutely the best dessert. As they sat in a circle, she felt the heat of the candle in front of her; as she closed her eyes and made a wish, “May the world be full of Happiness and Love.” As she blew out the candle on her birthday cake, her friends began to sing for her while she adored one of her most treasured scent, of the candle blowing out. This moment, of Love, Happiness, peace; this simplicity, is all she wanted.
After the most exemplary day, she returned home. Like every night, she got out her Typewriter and wrote about her 30th Birthday; wondering if it would be any different if she could See every second of the day she had spent with her Eyes…. As she laid down in bed, put on some slow music, then she closed her eyes to See every moment that she had lived throughout the day…. In colour!
