------------

"Fuck it," I smashed the hammer I was holding on top of the cabinet.

"Woah, what happened?" My brother showed up out of nowhere.

I flashed my left hand to him showing how red my thumb was because I was stupid enough to hit it with the hammer instead of the nail.

I thought he'd give me any sympathy but instead he just gave an evil chuckle.

"You deserve it,"

I gave him a death glare but he just ignored it and went out of the kitchen.

I was fuming in annoyance when I head towards the refrigerator to get an ice pack but there was none.

Oh great.

I search for any frozen meat available in the freezer but there was none.

Where does all the frozen food go?

Good thing mom showed up holding freshly harvested flowers from her garden.

"Mom, do we have any ice or frozen food so that I can put it on my thumb?" I showed her my thumb turning red and feeling numb.

She places her flowers on top of the counter before checking my thumb. "Did you hit it with all of your force?"

I simply nodded as my reply to her question.

"I'll buy you some ice. Just wait,"

Mom was about to pick up her keys when I volunteered.

"No worries mom, I'll just buy the ice."

Mom looked confused.

"Can you drive?"

I nodded. "It was my left thumb.. I can still drive using my right hand."

I took the car keys and went out of the house. I started the car and after a minute, I drove the car out of the garage to go to the nearest store where I could buy ice.

I know it sounds crazy that we don't have ice packs and even frozen food inside our refrigerator but that seems quite normal to me.

Everything and everyday feels weird to me... I don't even know why.

My thumb was feeling numb that I had to drive a little bit faster. As soon as I parked the car, I went inside the store and went to the ice station.

I took several ice packs and a candy before I checked out.

I couldn't wait inside the car so before I went out the store, I took one ice pack and place it on top of my thumb.

A sigh of relief.

I went inside the car and started the engine. I look both sides of the mirrors and turned on the hazard light as a sign that I am about to go out.

Everything was clear so I put the gear in reverse. I was not steeping on the gas, letting the car move back automatically. The car was almost out when suddenly, I heard a loud bang on the back of the car. I quickly stepped on the break and put the gear in neutral as I pull the hand break.

I went out of my car while an ice pack was still on my left thumb.

A black Porsche bumped the back of my car.

God, could this day be any worse?

The owner of the black Porsche went out and damn this guy feel like he's a main character. He was going out of his car acting like there is a fan blowing on his hair, fixing his shirt like as if someone is directing him.

I raise a brow at him.

"Sorry, I didn't know you were there." He took the courage to start the conversation.

"Uhm, are you blind? I had my hazard light on and my car was half out.. how come you didn't see it?" I was annoyed.

Before he would look at the damage he caused, he brushed his hair up.

Damn, this guy is on my nerves right now.

"It's just a tiny bump and scratch. I'll just pay for it... to save us both some time." His eyes then went to my left thumb. "Looks like you're in a rush."

I was surprised that he saw my thumb maybe because I was still holding an ice pack on top of my thumb despite all of this happening.

I removed the ice pack on my thumb to face him.

"No, I have a lot of time I can waste. Call a traffic officer.. let's settle this properly and not just by showing off that you have a lot of money."

He looked at his watch. "Look, I have a lunch date I need to get to. How much do you want? Ten thousand? Twenty?"

I didn't mind him and called for a traffic enforcer.

I faced him after the call. "Nope, this is your doing... so, you have to wait or you can bail, but I have your plate number and then you can still be detained."

He deeply sighed, clenched his fist, and kicked the wheel of his car then took big steps going towards me. He went closer to my face...

"I'll remember you," He looked pissed and annoyed at the same time.

I grinned, "I'm Iris, by the way."
