Hole

There has to be someone to take this role.

And it has to be me.

Weeks from now, before my twenty-third birthday comes, my brother will leave for overseas... and by then, I should have accepted the role of taking care of my ageing parents, maybe for as long as they live . And there is no one to do this but me. I hate to see this as a black hole trying to magnetize my destiny. This is not fate, but my choice. I know it's payback time.
