"Think about it, Harmony.

Just know that you have a choice,
you don't have to go to school if you like."

Mother's words echo in my ears
as I sit in my room.


My alarm clock reads

7:30AM

and the sun peeks out
from behind the pointed rooftops,

spilling shyly onto my bedroom carpet.


Taking a deep breath,
I make my way to the kitchen
and open Mother's cookbook,

flipping the pages until-

Basic Pancakes - 3 servings - 30 minutes

I grew up making Delia Smith's pancakes for breakfast, they're so so good and delicious! (Just imagine a tiny Mao whisking away in a freezing kitchen, getting flour everywhere)(freezing because our kitchen back in the uk had no heating)
