Transformed

If I'm not mistaken, it was last Friday. I played badminton with a bunch of unknown people. Well, not totally. At least I know one of them before I went. I was quite afraid to go as I did not know my friend's friends. Though, I went.

I went there and I sat at a corner. I did not initiate any talk or introduction with anybody. Even my friend also did not introduce me to his friends. To him, all of us are young people so we can settle it ourselves. I sat at a corner not long, then two gals walked towards my direction. One of them looked familiar. I couldn't really recall her name. She was shocked to see me there too.

We could recognise each other. We learned Taekwando together and she was from MGS. I found it hard to recall things that we'd gone through together. I remember we had much fun last time but I just couldn't recall how. We started to talk and then she and her friend went to play. So, I sat there and waited as we only rented one court. Hmm... That day I was quite tired and sleepy. I think it was because I had not recovered from the trip as well as all the cleaning work at work.

After around 10 minutes or less. She invited me to play together. We played. She saw me so quiet then she asked me why I became so shy. According to her, I used to be very brave and initiated chat with people quite often. We knew each other when I was Form 5 and she was Form 4. I asked her more about me and I am so different now. I'm very afraid of people now and I am not that brave anymore.

What have made me change? I really wonder why I became so fearful. Or is it because of the world is changing or is it because of the many problems that I encountered at work? Hmm...
