It’s the line from one of the short stories in Haruki Murakami‘s The Elephant Vanishes. I bought it from National Bookstore in Eastwood as my incentive to myself for another month (another payday). In short, wala lang talaga– trip trip lang. I was just lured by “An elephant vanishes; hunger drives a couple to rob McDonalds; an insomniac wife wakes in a different world,” printed at the back cover. I didn’t realize at first that the book is a series of short stories (until I got a bit confused of the transitions and Raymond informed me that the book is indeed all shorts.)
I thought I knew everything about my favorite blend– what the barista often asks me “The usual?” the moment I step inside. But that night, my cup of choice had a peculiar aftertaste. Suprisingly, I was not even sure what had caused it. And the effect has been there for two days now.
