My dormant nightly habits are resurfacing, while the mind and the body seems to comply to its uncanny needs.
I would stay awake till the mind settles or more often than not, I would take the prized car for a joy ride around the neighborhood.
Its quiet, calming... my solitude and my moving sanctuary.
Then at this precious moment, a phone call came.
Calls at this hour often send an unsettling chill into anyone's soul.
But not this one. A call out of concern... A call out of care, not often shown and never obvious.
A call from a family member... telling me to take cautious of the recent rampant crimes out there...
It was warm. It was calming.
Upon reaching the next junction, I made a u-turn.
I headed home.
