Green Nails

I'm wearing green nail polish today. 
I was wearing it yesterday.
Today morning, an sms from my PG said to meet my supervisor, now.
I was scared. 
Because:
1. I don't have any progress
2. I haven't met my supervisor for the longest time (a few months?)

I was still woozy being just awake but that shook me up. 
I changed and got ready to go. 
Then I felt like want to go to the toilet. 
The big business.
But I kept it in.
I'm always like this when I'm nervous.

Halfway there, I realised, I'm wearing green nail polish.
Dark green. Forest green.
All my ten fingers.
I cursed.
But I cannot go back now. 
I'm already late.

So I made my excuses on the way there.
I tell myself, I will explain to my supervisor and my PG, should they ask me.
I will tell them.
I killed a tree.
Got its blood on my fingers.
I dared myself to tell them that.
What can they do to me anyway?

But. No.
They didn't ask me.
I was disappointed.
My green nails were eye-catching. I think.
Unique.

It's ok.
Next time.
I'll wear yellow.
Bright sunshine yellow.
Been soaking up too much sun, I'll say.
