S/N: This is me, scribbling, trying to get myself back into writing after everything that happened these past few weeks. XD

Oh, and do play media. :)

“Damn! Shit!” I shouted when my car suddenly stopped. “Seriously, can my luck get any worse?”

I tried starting the car again, but failed. Maybe it just needs a short break. I counted 30 seconds before trying again. It still doesn’t start.

“Great! Just great! Excellent, even!” I kept on shouting while hitting the steering wheel.

I rested my head on the back of my seat. All I wanted was to have a little road trip, to drive somewhere and clear my mind. But no, fate just won’t let me.

Problem at work, my parents fighting, and not to mention it’s the exact same date last year when I found out my girlfriend of 3 years, now ex, was cheating on me.

I looked at my surrounding. I guess it’s a good thing this is a quiet road. No one usually drives here, since it’s a road going to the mountains.

I decided to get out of my car. I can’t do anything with it, for now, anyway. I’ll just call for help when I need someone to talk to. But for now, I want to be alone.

This place is already quite high up so, I decided to walk towards the edge. Maybe the breeze over there can help me clear my head. Maybe I can even shout my worries out. Houses are far from here anyway.

To my surprise, there are five little tables with roofs along the edge. I guess, people also hangout around this place. I looked at the time, 1:31 AM. I guess no one’s going to be here at this time.

I decided to sit on the table in the middle. Just to get the best view.

I took a deep breath and shouted. “Damn you, life! Why do you have to be so harsh?!”

I was catching my breath after shouting, I guess I screamed too loud.

“Life is beautiful though.” I jumped on my seat when I suddenly heard a voice.

“Who’s there?” I asked, looking at my back.

“On your right, silly.”

I looked at my right, and there she was. Two tables away. “Were you there all along?”

She shook her head. “No, just before you shouted.” Damn, I didn’t even feel her presence. “That must felt good, right?” she asked.

“I’m sorry, what?”

“Shouting loudly into nowhere. That must felt good.”

“I guess so.” I answered. “Yeah, it did.”

“You should shout more.” She pointed at the sky. “You look like you still have a lot of things to say.”

Well, I was going to, until she came and ruined the momentum.

“I’m sorry, but I actually want to be alone right now.”

“I know.” She answered. If you know, you should leave, I thought.

“Don’t you want to know how I know?” I ignored her question. “Come on, humor me.”

“Fine. How?”

“Your eyebrows says so. You look so angry, they are starting to become unibrow.” She laughed.

Great. I wanted to be alone and the universe still won’t let me. Instead, it gave me this annoying woman to be with.
