In Between House Chores (2)

I just finished folding all of the clothes. My back is now aching like hell.

Folding or ironing clothes is my enemy. I hate it. Because it’s time-consuming and boring. Plus, I don’t know, I feel very ‘small’ every time I do that. Who are you, Ajeng? Your life is now only taking care of the household, doing something really nasty and dirty. Not smart at all. Ironing? Folding clothes? That is not smart and sexy at all.

That makes me sad. Really sad that I sometimes hold my tears until my throat hurts! Every time. Well, most of the times.

Look at me. I am one of them.
