Here comes the drama
I was trying with all effort to restrain myself from crying. I was biting my lip as if to divert the sadness that I was feeling inside. I even had to limit myself to a one or two-liner sentences to every good byes I hear in the office.

My brother was ranting over dinner about their class’ performance during their fire drills and earthquake drills in school.
