Searching For Euphoria

04

Brei read her old and new note pads and sighed. Why couldn't she write like she wrote before? She is indeed in the state of hangover.

After ten long minutes of just staring at her notepad she totally lost it. She gripped on to her hair and slightly pulled strands.

"Ugh!" Brei groaned as she lays down on her bed. She covered her face with the notepad and decided to just freakin' close her eyes or she'll totally drown in frustration.

Lorn saw what Brei did and he can't help but think that maybe this lady is a runaway. That she was someone who needed a big break from being a victim of the worldwide system.

Enough of his thoughts about Brei.

He's almost there and soon he knows he'll find out where Euphoria is. For sure, she can answer all the questions that's clouding up his mind.

*bang*bang*bang*

Lorn was cut off from his thought when he heard the thumping sound. It was Brei stomping her feet. He rolled his eyes and stand up.

The upper deck was neck level to him and he could see Brei.

"What is your problem? You realize there's a person under you right?" Lorn asked Brei, his face showing his annoyance towards her.

Brei took off the notepad and was expressionless when she turned only her head to meet his eyes. She stared at them for a while and replied, "I'm so frustrated. I'm on this trip back to my hometown to search for euphoria."

Lorn's eyes widened when he heard that. Does she know the lady he has been looking for? Is Brei really there to find her too?

"I'm looking for Euphoria too..." he muttered.

Lorn then heard Brei sighed.

"It's hard to find euphoria once again and it keeps you asking what is euphoria," she said, now staring at ceiling.

When Lorn heard what she said he frowned. What? Shouldn't she be saying who? Lorn then gets it,

She was talking about the feeling while I was talking about a person...

"Say, wanna come with me and look for our euphorias?" Brei asked looking straight at him again.

"Close your eyes!" Euphoria yelled happily at Lorn. "Now, I want them closed until you hear your phone beeping."

"Hmm... sounds like you have an evil plan. Are you going to push me down this bridge?" Lorn asked chuckling as he shut his eyes.

Euphoria took a pebble and placed a letter under it. Then she looked at him whose eyes were closed. If only she could tell him that she couldn't make any sense of his face... it would be easier.

"How can you recognize someone you cannot see?"
