While watching a movie tonight, I heard some people screaming. I turned my TV off and indeed some couple were screaming their lungs out. They were arguing right outside my window. Yelling and making no sense. From what I could gathered, the reason they were arguing was because she had done something wrong at some party and he did not want to listen her out, so she keep on yelling at him, trying to explain why she had done what she did, but he wouldn't listen. He would just yell back at her to get inside his car, because she was waking all the neighbors up. At first, I found the whole situation funny. Until it stroked me. I had lived that same quarrel at some point in my life. It hit me hard. I no longer found it funny to be listening to them. I found myself thinking back at that similar moment I had had, and all the feelings came back rushing, and now I was sick to my stomach, again.
It's interesting how human beings can go on with their lives everyday while blocking unwanted memories from the past. How we can go day by day and not think or remember an embarrassing moment, or some shameful situation we have been in. How we learn to push all those memories to the back of our head and even believe that we are able to forget them at one point. But then one day, one good day, when you least expect it, BAM! it all comes back to you. Haunting you. Tormenting you, again.
These are the moments when I wish 'Lacuna, INC.' would exist in real life. No need to say more.
