"Are you okay?"
A middle-aged woman who's passing by stopped in front of me, sitting by a bench, and asked me the question.
Am I?
I just nodded and looked away.
I can't take the concern in her gentle hazelnut eyes.
At the corner of my eye, I saw her gently smiled and continued her walk, leaving me.
I should've...
A little head suddenly peaked in from my slumped posture. It's a little boy with a lollipop in his mouth.
He reaches out an unopened lollipop to me. When he noticed that I'm not gonna take it he puts in onto my side and shyly smiles and runs away.
Should...
"I'm sorry!"
A firm but gentle hand helps me get up. He also tries to fix my hair but I stopped him and fixed it myself. Spotting the ball that got me knocked down, he smiles apologetically and kicks it to his buddies. He apologized once again and runs after them.

I rubbed my eyes because of the dirt that got into it.
"Ah shit" my eyes wells up as I try to be okay.
This...dirt...
Few seconds passed by and my eyes are perfectly fine.
My eyes...
I thought they were perfectly fine.
How come...?
Droplets of water started falling from them.
Non-stop.
Closing them, it poured even more.
I should've known.
