Disclosure

Why am I so hyped up over a name? I find it hard to suppress this infantile behaviour from surfacing. But still, I hold my breath and read on, until I finally come across the name. It sounds so pure and delicate. Naturally I tend to relate it to the flower which shares the same name, rather than referring it to the circular, pigmented curtain of the eye. Besides, it reminds me of a painting by Vincent van Gogh, which he painted in the asylum before his death. Having fulfilled my inquisitive mind, I prepare myself to leave. On second thought, I have a borrowed book to return. Therefore I move towards the rack where visitors put their belongings. I get ahold of the book from my backpack and head for the counter. “Are things going well, sonny?”, the librarian shows her concern. “Fairly well, ma’am. I think I should take the initiative to drop the formality in my eventual correspondence with her.”, I tell her in response.
