Omicron(ed)

 I have always held a view, jokingly, that everyone has his/her covid-19 wave. Meaning if you have not contracted covid-19 in one wave, chances are that the next one might be waiting for you. After being careful all this time, covid-19 came knocking. We had felt comfortable after a year of homeschooling that our son can go to school even if it's twice a week, to get a chance to interact with his schoolmates. We felt he probably missed them. Indeed he really enjoyed his few days at school. Unfortunately, when a covid-19 case was recorded in his school, we feared he might be affected. Our fears were indeed justified because a few days later he had a mild, but dry cough. We swiftly took him for a test, and it came out positive. By this time we were feeling healthy with no signs. A few days later, I felt some mild flu signs: muscle pain at the back in the main. The test came out positive.
