Her black hair waving on her skinny face.
She woke up; it was 4am by then. She turned on the lights and started staring
at the blue ceiling until she could go beyond the limits of the ceiling. Her
eyes could no longer be closed. Her heart beating broke the silence of the room;
it made the book, which was on her chest fall down on the floor. The light bulb
exploded, so did her heart. Her heart stole life from the pages of the book.
The book was letting out its letters, the air smells of cheap ink and then the
book became ashes. The title of the book escaped and became a tattoo on the
left side of the girl's chest. With capital letters, it was written «ON THE
HEIGHTS OF DESPAIR ". The heart started beating, but this time in a manner,
that must make anyone who happens to hear it think about suicide and all the
right decisions. She has no human in her. Her face became a combination of all
the miserable features a face may contain. The picture of Emil Cioran on the
wall looks the happiest face on earth comparing to her face. She stood up and
her eyes are still wide open, walked emotionlessly toward her typing machine,
put her dead fingers on the keys and started typing in a chaotic way. Blank
pages were getting out of the machine and the ink was splashing in the air. She
typed in a manner Beethoven once played the seventh symphony. The air was a
mixture of old and new ink, there was no oxygen left in the air. However, she
kept writing and her heart was beating loud, loud enough to break the windows.
The letters in the air had escaped the room the way a soul escapes a dead body.
Oxygen found the way again to the room. The girl screamed, cried, closed her
eyes, her heart stopped beating again and this time for an eternity. Six am the
sun rose and the warmest rays of sunshine enlightened the room.
