to the balcony.
He took out a cigarette and lit it up. After closing the door between the bedroom and the balcony, he took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. The evening wind took away a wisp of white smoke, but it couldn’t take away the surging emotions in his body.
He was never a person who believed in fate. He was rational and restrained until today. For him, all people and things needed to be managed and used. However, fate was too
