A Change of Scenery
It was a gloomy day for me as I went back to the place where I once nearly mentally collapse. The office, and to be more specific, Mom's office. It was no longer than a couple of months ago where I started my dreadful internship there. Maybe was my childish self that did not appreciated other's time or the mind-corrupting thoughts of how much I hate the about the office environment at that time.

The air was sickening as it smelled a mixture of sweat and a perfume scent so strong it can be easily mistaken as a poison.
But I did not want to think today is going to be a bad day, despite being cramped inside an elevator with a dozen or more of people. I wanted to change the scenery. The distance between my face and the doors of the elevator were only a couple of inches away, that means I am able to see small bits of particles of the design of the mix of aluminium and metal.
As I dig more deeply to my imagination, the elevator doors reminded me a scene from Catching Fire, I could not name one in particular but it's funny how an elevator door could bring back a memory that I found happiness in. Maybe it was the futuristic designs of the door that ignited a flash of memory in my brain of a place in the Hunger G
