The road behind me fell away, as the old taxi coughed and wheezed on its journey back to my palace. The wheels crashed against the asphalt; every sporadic jump mimicked my heartbeat. It stopped at the junction. My driver, a burly man with a thick northern Vietnamese accent, lit a cigarette, took a puff, then snuffed it out, taking care not to let any smoke inside. It was very considerate of him, and I was glad. My motion sickness is bad as it is without the smell of tobacco. But as the light turned green and we were moving again, my stomach could no longer withstand its suffering, and I started expunging my breakfast into a bag. The smell of half-digested eggs stung my nostril, threatening another bout of bowel clearance, and I cursed whoever invented cars. I could feel my temples throbbing, and for a moment, I channeled my inner Hamlet and pondered whether it was worth it to continue. Yet, if Odysseus could brave through countless dangers in his 10-year journey back home, I too shall endure this plight.

The Beginning
If you could ask anything in the world, what question would you ask? I remember this being the start of my writer's journey. I wanted to ask everything but, at only five years old, my view of the world was so small. So, I did what any five year old would do, I thought of the biggest thing I could think of, clutched my pencil and wrote, “If you met your heart, what would you ask it?” If only, back then, I'd known how much I’d yearn for an answer to that question. I have met my heart time after time, only to be met with knowing silence. A gnawing and niggling at the back of my brain, that taunts me with the fact that that my vital organs know things about me that I may never uncover; not in this lifetime, and maybe not ever. That still hasn’t stopped me from asking questions, that bold five year old still lives within me. She is my natural curiosity, the impulsive desire to touch things I’m not supposed to, push buttons just to see what they do, surf the most obscure parts of the internet for bits and pieces of information that may never be useful; but I'd know them. Above all, this innate curiosity is born of love, a fervor for knowledge, and the desire to share those things with people.

My mailbox hangs on the front door, with a rectangular hole cut into the door panel for letters to be slipped through from the outside. Whenever I hear the postal carrier's bell go "ding-ding," I hurry to open it, and a letter silently stands inside the mailbox. The sky-blue envelopes resemble a piece of the sky, while the brown paper ones look like slabs of earth, weighty and substantial. Whenever I tear open an envelope, my emotions are always eager and thirsty, uncertain whether it holds surprises, confessions, sorrows, attentiveness, joys, or pleas for help, or perhaps a fiery romance or wandering thoughts that tug incessantly. From every corner of the world, the whereabouts of my friends depend solely on these missives.
