My COVID Tale

It's been three weeks since  I've been out with friends and coming home barely minutes before curfew starts. And I have no plans if doing the same in the nearest future. 

I had the greatest scare of my life after hearing the news that bff was was scheduled for a swab test. She was closely exposed to a friend who died of Covid on the day that we got together one night for dinner. 

The thoughts of the consequences that my carelessness kept me awake most nights until news of a (-) result came out three days later. Though I did not bother checking my blood pressure, I could tell it was higher than normal. What the survivors say is true. COVID may not kill a person but anxiety will. Sigh... 

In my prayers, I always ask God to spare my life for so many earthly, selfish reasons. But hey, I'm just human.
