Mask out
by Iza Deleanu
I am so surprised to see myself in the mirror. My face is not the same. Hm! my face looks like a mask, or should I say multiple masks that I put up according to the situation. For example, in the bus I am wearing my "don't bother talk to me mask, I am busy reading kind of type."
Then at work here it comes: "I wear the perfect I don't care mask, because for several months we are just pretending to do something, but nothing happens. And by the way, today I changed my mask so read this: Stir clear, I am not your dear!"
My real mask comes up when I actually do the things I want such as "oh my God, I get to travel? Yes, please! What? You want me to wear a mask in the airport? No problem, as long as I am out of here. Wait you want me to upload my proof of vaccination. Finally, I get to show off. Man, I do have a couple of doses under my belt. Which one to you want? What? Do you want me to show you all of them. You naughty travel agent, here you go have a feast. I will show you my three Modernas, beat that!"
I have one for this site too. Depending on the situation there are days when I am wearing the broken hearted mask, and other days when I lie to myself and wear the my "I will be okay mask!" So what mask do you wear, not that I care?
