A Saturday : An Incompleteness
Saturday morning. It's 6 o'clock sharp. My cellphone alarms me. I put it off with my eyes closed(I'm good at doing so). In no time I get off my bed. The other day I'd resolved that I'd do exercises every morning starting from Saturday. I go to the bathroom, and wash my face. Damn!, the water is really very cold. I get back to my room to do some exercises. But then I see an incomplete story that I'd started writing the previous night. I sit back to complete it. No sooner have I added three words than I feel like having some coffee.
I realise nobody's awake for it's Saturday. I go to the kitchen, and prepare a cup of coffee for myself. I have only just taken a single sip when I see my earphone on the kitchen table. I'd dropped it there last night, but I didn't know about it. I'm happy to get my earphone back. I put it into my pocket. I feel something like metal inside my pocket. I take it out, and find out it's the key of my private drawer which I'd been searching for days. I go back to my room, and open the drawer. Wow! I'm exited to see my stuffs after such a long time. There I see my watch which was gifted to me by my cousin. It has stopped working. I guess the battery's gone down. I decide of fixing it right away. I go to the watch mender nearby. He's just opened up for the day. But then I think it's better to pick some newspapers first. I go to the stationery, and buy all the English dailies including TKP and THT. In the stationery, I see some practical sheets. "Shit!", I exclaim. I remember I haven't done my Botany practicals. I buy some drawing sheets, and rush towards home. I get into my room to do my practicals. I observe my room. It looks disgusting and really filthy. I think it's better to clean the room first. I start cleaning my room. Meanwhile, I realise I need to charge my cellphone. I begin to search for the charger. Argh! I can't find it. Where the hell is it ? After a while, I find the charger and a rubik's cube together under the study table. I have seen the rubik's cube after months. It magically brings smile on my face. I pick it up, and try to solve it. As always, I fail to do so. All of a sudden, it starts to rain. I remember I'd kept my pants on the terrace. In a hurry, I climb up the stairs to the terrace, and get my pants in on time. I happen to check its pockets where I find an article I'd written for the college magazine Pioneer. It is supposed to be mailed to the magazine editorial team at pioneeraticles2013@gmail.com. I turn my laptop on.It stops raining. I check my facebook account. I see my friends' statuses on what they're going to do today(i.e. on Saturday). One of statuses reads " .....is taking a shower though it's raining" .

I comment " The rain has just stopped." Then I realise I too need to take a bath. I haven't taken bath since Sunday. My cellphone beeps. It's a call from my friend who is right now in front of my house. He's been on a morning walk. He asks me to come out and join him. I peer through the window. I see him. I walk out of my house, and shake hands with him. We stroll for a while. When I get back home, I find my coffee is cold. I have to prepare another one..............
At the end of the day:
I didn't do any exercise in the morning.
I didn't complete my story that I'd started the last night.
I didn't have any coffee.
My watch isn't fixed yet.
I didn't go through the newspapers. In fact, I left them in the stationery itself.
My Botany practicals aren't done yet.
My room is still dirty.
My cell phone's battery is down.
I didn't take bath.
