Displaced

Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why? she wondered. She couldn't understand why this was happening. She thought it was her destiny until the cold hard truth crashed in - she was going to be alone, and homeless.

Evidently, the thought of being a nomad was ineffable. A homebody through and through, she'd always needed the security of four walls to feel safe, especially in the strange city which she has to accustom herself to in the shortest possible time.

Self-actualisation? she sneered, a tad too cynically, perhaps overwhelmed by the cloud of uncertainty looming above her head. What bullshit. Deep down inside, the irrepressible fear was mounting and consuming her by the second.
