A long night ahead

As I begin to type this post, the two hands of the clock in my room , in a rare dispaly of unity have come together to remind me that it is midnight.
All round me quiet.

The only light around is the tubelight in my room,

The only sound I can hear is the low hum of the CPU fan...

It had been raining outside...I could hear the rain till sometime back..now the sound of the rain drops falling against the window glass is inaudible...

My room is a bit untidy, a couple of rough pages are lying on the table , pens, pencils are strewn about...
The bed is unkempt and I wonh't put it straight either...books are strewn all over it...
Today I did all my padhai lying on the floor...yeah! the bai will have it easy tomm..

It is very rare to find me online at this hour..but of late I have been finding it difficult to sleep...I try to fool my brain and I keep telling it that I am very sleepy ..sometimes it works and sometimes it does not...and today,like yesterday , it is not working at all...

Till sometime back I could distinctly smell Fa Lavender talc on myself..but I do not anymore...
I think I very thirsty...
I think my mind is very restless at this hour..I do not know what it is looking for ..what would calm it...All I can sense is unease...
I wish I could just close my eyes and fall asleep....

I think it is going to be useless to try to sleep on my own..I think I will sleep in Mum and Dad's room...
I will go now...I have to hunt for the cot .

I hope you are all dreaming your nicest dreams at this very moment..
Sleep tight.
Ruchi.
