Hello, swagat hai aapka meri vulnerabilities ke andar !

Grunts.

Good or bad?

Both?

Both.

When I say grunts, I mean things like the existence of that fleece on the insides of socks. I mean the time wasted on untangling earphones everytime you want to use them. I mean how we have to clean the washroom even though it literally is always full of water. I mean things like not being allowed to reuse a previous password again, like having to make your bed every morning only for it go back to being messy the same night. And many, many other things. The list is endless.

When I say grunts, I also mean the larger, more life- changing challenges and difficulties we face that make us feel like there is no way forward and we are doomed to fail in everything we do.

When I say grunts, I mean anything that makes us think, “I wish this wasn’t the way it is”

Grunts are a completely natural part of our lives. We grunt at things everyday, for some reason or the other. What we fail to do however, is recognise these moments of dissatisfaction, displeasure or discomfort as opportunities for learning and development.

( When I say “we” I mean “I” )

My grunts overpower me, because I find it hard to sit with them. As I experience a “grunt” my body tenses up and I immediately do what I can to make it go away. Because sitting with it is harder. And it is fair if that happens to you as well, by the way. Because research shows that we have problem focused brains. We have a natural tendency to sit in judgement and seek out the information that feeds our dominant beliefs. So, if we believe the world is dark, we’re more likely to notice events and information that reinforces the thought that “the world is dark” or “I am not good enough”. In fact, these self imposed beliefs are so powerful that they are almost always subconscious.

Creating awareness of our beliefs is the first step to change.

Good thing we’re humans and hence have the power to reshape, refocus, or repurpose our energy from a judger to a learner at any time. The power lies in questioning our thoughts. We must learn to examine our thoughts to create a type of space between action and reaction.

In this space, a cute little thing called Gratitude can be consciously imbedded that has the power to reframe our thinking and turn anything bad into something good. People my age simplify this process by calling it “gaslighting yourself” but I simply call it Positive Thinking, an approach proved to eliminate negative self talk and motivate us to find silver linings and cope with stress.

     AirPods is one of the cool things I have. I would make sure I bring my AirPods everytime before I go out. Before AirPods came out, I used normal Apple wire earphone to listen to music. Anytime I took out it from my pocket, I had to spend the time to untangle my earphone. Now, I can just put them on and enjoy the music. I like AirPods’ design; Without the wire, it looks more modern and clear. AirPods is very light that I even forgot I was wearing it. Convenience is also one of the factors that AirPods attract me. AirPods can pair with iPhone or other Apple device very easily. As soon as I put on my AirPods, it automatically connects to my phone. When I was listening to music, my friend wanted to talk to me. I can take one AirPod out, and the music stops, it resumes as soon as you put it back. This is a fantastic design! Some people may think it is troublesome to charge your AirPods, but in fact, the AirPods can handle about five hours of constant music, and the case holds around another 19 hours of charge. The convenience and simplicity of AirPods make me think it is cool!

Fear

Dazai Osamu x Reader

Kenji offered each one of the members of the agency a mug of hot chocolate, accompanied by a warm smile could instantly light up the whole room and send warmth to the cold parts of your body that remains untouched. That's how it feels everytime he shows off that cheeky and toothy smile.

Nonetheless, Y/N wasn't having any of it. You muttered your thanks and blew into your own mug. Despite the warm smile that appeared on Kenji's face, it didn't warm or even brighten up your day. You blame the stupid cold weather and how you're too anxious to work due to the raindrops pit-patting on the window pane. Annoyance is certainly written on your face as you drink more.

"Stupid weather, stupid raindrops, stupid everything." You muttered to yourself as you untangle your ear phones and putting it in your ears. You fumble to find a song that could instantly calm down your restless nerves. And as you hit the play button, a folder appeared on your desk.

Looking up, it was Kunikida-kun. You exchanged greetings and removed your earphones asking as to what this is all about.

"You've got work to do." He told you while crossing his arms.

"On this awful weather?" You grimaced.

"On this awful weather." Looking at the window, then back at you, he repeated.

"Oh, so what is this all about?" You asked while scanning through the files in the folder. You tried to think straight but all you could hear was that annoying pit-patting sound on the window pane.

"A mission for you and the bandanged idiot." He told you. Letting out a deep sigh, you closed the folder and handed it back to Kunikida.

"Can it be Atsushi? I mean, they work really well together." You tried to test your bargaining skills and of course, your charm. It's not that you and Dazai can't work together, you just really have an irrational fear and hatred of the current weather. Plus the both of you get along so well, making snide and sarcastic remarks to each other whenever you are both out doing a mission. Fighting off bad guys isn't anything like the movies at all, looking all badass and dramatic with all the smoke and rain. Reality check, it's pretty much a hassle for you.

"Sorry, Y/N but the president requested for you to finish this task alongside with Dazai. He believes that your combat skills are fit for this." Kunikida grabbed the folder and headed back to his cubicle. Letting out another sigh, you face the window and cursed at the rain for such bad timing. You organized your desk and shut your laptop off before walking towards Dazai.

"Oh, morning, you ready?" Putting down his book and leaning in his desk, he asked. Nodding, you both head to the exit, coats and umbrellas in hand.

You really don't understand nor remember when did you become irrational and started fearing the rain once it becomes too heavy, but whatever. It's not important right now, what's important is to clear your head and finish this simple task. It's simple, but it's raining, so it's pretty much gonna be a hassle. You shook your head, as if you can easily and physically rid off these thoughts. So much for being an anxious person.

Walking in sync, you started to exit the building followed by Dazai. As you continue to head on, you look up at the dark skies wondering when will this stop, 'cause you clearly had enough. On a positive note, once you get rid of the enemies on a weather like this, the blood will wash away easily, making it less messy.

As if the universe has this big ass grudge on you, it started raining harder accompanied with rolling thunders.

You stopped dead in your tracks, gripping tightly your umbrella as you slightly tremble. You heard Dazai winced in pain as he bumped into your back. "Hey Y/N, what's wrong? Why'd you stop?" Dazai lightly gripped your arm. You faced him, admitting that you clearly can't do it.

"I can't do it, I can't do this mission with this kind of weather." You sheepishly admitted, already headed back towards the building. Again, you stopped in your tracks as you heard Dazai chuckle. Is he really laughing at this kind of shit?

Turning around, you started stomping towards him, not even minding that you are stepping on several small puddles on the pavement. With gritted teeth, you asked him why is he laughing at you.

"Ya, you idiot bandaged maniac, are you laughing at me?" You glared at him while he continues to laugh at you.

"Oh wait, wait, wait, you got it all wrong." The smile never left his face as he extends his arms to stop you from coming any closer. You kept on glaring at him until he holds both of your shoulders to steady you. You hate to admit it but it actually calmed you down whenever Dazai touches you. Is it because of his ability? Can it null anxiety and fear? Idiot, it can only null abilities and you're no ability user. Oh how can you only wish.

Anyhow, you looked down at the puddle below you with a frown on your face as you waited for Dazai to explain himself.

"Hey look at me." He whispered and you're surprised that you can hear him despite the protests of the rain. You looked into his eyes and suddenly you forgot that you're still outside where thunders are crawling its way to your ears to scare every nerve you have.

"I'm not laughing at you, you got it all wrong. I was just surprised at how someone who is beautiful and strong is scared of these simple raindrops." He said as he touches one. "I mean, you could easily kill all those mafia members with a flick of your wrist, you're badass! You're one of the strongest and fearless people I know despite not having an ability and being scared of a simple thing like this rain doesn't make you any less amazing." He smiled as he lifts your chin up.

"I'm-" You were at loss for words. You really didn't expect this man to comfort you. You honestly thought he would just leave and carry out the mission by himself.

"Thank you. No really, thank you. I don't know what to say." You hugged him. Burying your face on his chest.

"You know, being scared of something doesn't make you vulnerable, it makes you stronger. Simply acknowledging it is already brave." He smiled, squeezing you lightly. "And if you don't want to carry this mission it's okay, that four-eyed blonde man wouldn't understand but I do." He added.

"No-I-I just freaked out Dazai. Knowing that I got you beside me makes it less scary." Showing him a genuine smile. Despite your hand trembling still out of the fear, you grabbed his hand and dragged him towards your destination. Maybe this wouldn't be awful after all.
