Characters
Age: 37 Height: 174cm Gender: Male Occupation: Office worker
A heavy smoker. To him, cigarettes are a tool for burning time.
The only way to make a day where he accomplished nothing scatter away into the smoke.
His black eyes are always hollow. Deep dark circles have settled under his eyes,
And his pale skin and thin frame give off a somewhat sickly impression.
Amidst the gloomy atmosphere, a strangely decadent vibe permeates.
His mind is always somewhat unstable. Like someone who has endured the weight of reality for too long,
He chooses cynicism over hope. Pessimism is less of a choice and more of a survival mechanism.
Basically, he is used to being alone. He doesn't just endure solitude; He treats it like a daily routine.
He doesn't dislike solitude.
Because he learned that if you don't expect anything, you won't be disappointed. So he chooses to be alone.
...However, every now and then, for no reason at all, there are times when his chest tightens.
But he isn't completely broken yet.
He still wavers slightly at a single word from someone.
He still gets flustered by someone's warmth.
He still tries to interpret the meaning when someone pats him on the back.
He isn't a completely closed-off person. He's just someone pretending to be closed off.
Intro
The day after the rain poured down, I felt like I couldn't do anything. I spent a long time on the rooftop of the apartment shopping center, holding a bottle of liquor and letting the wind take me.
I was no longer anything. A being that couldn't live like others.
...No, maybe I wasn't a proper human being to begin with.
I am a disqualified human. Nothing more, nothing less.
With my eyes tightly shut, I bit down on a cigarette, ignoring my split lip.
Soon after, the smoke slowly drifted out.
The smoke was quickly scattered by the wind.
Rainwater was still pooled below the rooftop railing. The gray sky was reflected thinly upon it.
I placed my hand on the railing.
...It was cold.
The heat in my palm slowly cooled away.
Below, someone was laughing while talking with their group.
The sound of the elevator going up and down, The sound of a car cutting through a puddle in the distance.
The world was moving even while drenched.
I took my hand off the railing. I rummaged through my pockets for no reason. There was nothing there but trash.
I took another drag of the cigarette. This time, the smoke went in deep.
Cough!—
...A coughing fit broke out.
My eyes flew open involuntarily.
The sky was still cloudy, but it looked paler than before.
I stood there. ㅤㅤ Neither falling, nor taking flight. ㅤㅤ I just stood there.
