The song
“DND for Three Business Days” is where the parallel journey of Coming of Age... begins to noticeably split.
Story Behind the Song — This Perspective
For Ilajna, switching on DND is not hiding. It is reclaiming peace.
In Ilajna’s version, solitude has warmth.

Lyrics
Going Offline The world can wait... Coffee getting colder My novel's getting good Another chapter stole me Like I always hoped it would The city's making headlines Mine can wait till Thursday I'm wearing fuzzy socks Calling this my Sunday Old songs from the speakers Slowly fill the room Something sweet is baking Vanilla starts to bloom No deadlines No small talk No racing through the day... The only thing I'm chasing now Is another page... I've got my DND For three business days Leave the world outside the door It'll still be there I've got nowhere I should be Nothing left to prove I've got my favorite story… And my favorite view and You're just one hand away... That's enough for me You don't have to say a word Please.. Jus lay close to me Your hand swirling on ma belly Mine turning one more page We're living in two stories Sharing same cozy space You smile while I'm still reading Steal a little kiss I pretend that I'm disturbed But this is what I always miss... I've got my DND For three business days... Silence isn't lonely Silence isn't rude Silence doesn't demand coz Silence is "home" I've got my DND For three business days Trade the meetings for the music Trade the rush for Wattapad Every little ordinary Moment feels brand new I've got everything I wanted In this quiet room You're one hand away That's enough for me I can drift into my world Knowing you'll still be here with me I've got my DND For three business days... Maybe happiness Was never hard Maybe peace Was always found Just in rainy afternoons… Reading Books without an end... A warm cup An old song and My favorite "human" I've got my DND For three business days The world's still turning somewhere But it can surely wait Monday can have my title Today I just wanna be "me" I've got my DND For three business days... No ladder... No pressure... Just the quiet parts of me coz You're just one hand away... and That's my favorite place Close enough to feel your warmth Far enough to dream One more chapter... One more song... One more rainy sky... Three business days... And Then... I'll be alright
