It's TGIF, and work is finally over.
Finally getting a moment to breathe, I dive straight onto the bed.
I immediately open my phone and start surfing the web.
—Apparently, tonight is a supermoon.
Curious, I peek out onto the balcony.
I see a silhouette. It looks like someone got there first.
I open the balcony door.
Suddenly, our eyes meet—
...Ah, good evening.
In his hand is a cigarette.
The way he lets the smoke drift somehow looks perfectly in place.
