no title #2

B always forgets everything easily. She has only one aim “to always be happy, satisfied and energetic.” Even if there is nothing to be happy about, or if her life is full of worrisome problems and knots. B leaves the town after 3 years, she was already calling town A home, but after so many unsuccessful events, she left town A to look for her luck in town B. Two weeks after she came to town B, she told M how happy and blessed she is, how depressed she had been in town A for the past few months and how she has begun to reach peace of mind here in town B. M only said:” I am so happy for you.” Four months later B goes back to town A, her visa is limited. She had one more big bad news before leaving. A few hours after she has reached “home” in town A , she calls M to tell her how happy she is to be there, and how much she loves there, M is silent, so B thinks maybe that’s rude and adds that everything is wonderful except that she misses M and H. The next day as if she doubts M’s comprehension she calls again just to tell M that she misses M and H but Oh dear God how much she loves town A and even though she hasn’t gone outside but she doesn’t want to leave town A any more. M says:”I am so happy for you.”
M clearly remembers what B had said after receiving the last bad news, half an hour after hearing the news, B took a shower and came out laughing and announcing that she’s going back “home”. When H mentioned her bad luck and asked her what she was going to do, B said:”Oh I’ve already forgotten about it. You know after all, the distance between my consciousness and unconsciousness is so narrow that I dumped it into my unconsciousness while taking shower.”

I loved the idea! I do that too, but usually, my unconscious hunts me, even years after this disaster in my sleep! I wake up, stunned, thinking where the hell did that come from and where was it hiding all this time!

I really like your style! keep writing!
