Unlikely solution for a likely question

     Tension writ large on her face. Her head felt heavy and her shoulders ached. She closed her eyes for a few minutes trying to sort out things in her head. Her mind wrestled with various thoughts and options. Tried thinking of probable solutions. Nothing seemed to enlighten her. Tension grew instead of settling down. She simply shut her mind and looked out of the window from where light streamed in. The piece of sky that her eyes caught, had faded. She wondered. What had happened to the blueness of the sky? Was it the bright Sun or the misty clouds that had robbed it of its colour or was that faded look a particular phase of the day which would soon phase out restoring its colour?...

     Her cell phone beeped and its screen beamed with the text, "You have received two new messages". She gave a cursory look to it and her eyes travelled back to her table and she wondered what she was doing there. A book lay open on the table with a few clips holding its pages, a file with a blue stick-on on which 'urgent' was scribbled. A writing pad lay aside with a few jottings. The matter on her computer screen matched the jottings but there was a pencil in her hand. She tried to recall that she did last before her mind had wandered off. She tried, tried hard to remember but her mind blanked out.
     She was in the middle of so many things that nothing on her crowded table helped her recall that had engaged her serious attention a few minutes back. All she could think then was the immediate need to de-clutter the table and probably her life, too. Maybe the solution lay there.
