It's not Cli-Fi Anymore

Overthinking, hopefully

I had written a short-story - my first one - a couple of years ago. It is set in the 2050s and revolves around the happenings in a national meteorological station. 

I proudly called my story a "cli-fi", climate-fiction and named it "In the Not-so-Distant Future". 

Give it a read here on VOV.

  

I am not proud of my allergies - I am the first one to fall sick whenever the weather changes or even when I am exposed to wind.

I have been put on medication almost indefinitely. Just small doses to keep me from feeling like there's a motor running in my nose all the time, but I'm still not comfortable with this fact. 

So I wrote

Weather change brings me down with flu,

I wonder what climate change would do.

I happened to read my own short story today and apart from reminding me to watch the weather, it left me wondering if I would be be better off or worse off than Suraj. 

Ain't got a bloody clue.

I won't even try to think of his wife.
