“It Has Been A Long Road”<\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 I went shopping every 2 weeks during lockdown. I have to wear hat, glasses, mask, gloves, and wore slippers when I went outside. I also was wearing easy-to-wash clothes. By this rubbish dress, I even don’t recognize myself! Sometimes I stood at the threshold of the market and hate to see the masked people around, I really want to cry. No one saw my tears thanks to that trash mask! I could not breathe comfortably. I hate it! I wished those unhappy days are over soon.

I could wear the beautiful clothes when I was watering the flowers in my garden. I could wear high heels too! I was good in this fashion. I preferred stay at home to go outside.
