Elyse had just bought her fourth pack of cigarettes since Monday morning, and right now being Monday night, that wasn't necessarily a healthy thing. She clambered out of the stuffy shop and sauntered up the high street, the light from the street lamps illuminating her path and cars rushing to and fro alongside her through the darkness. A cold, misty spray of rain was falling thick from the invisible clouds above and her cheeks were cold and raw. She didn't want to go back to the hostel, at least not now...she was starving, ill and tired, but it hadn't taken its toll on her yet, so she just kept walking, hoping perhaps to find a park, cafe or maybe a homeless person who would spare her a conversation.

Evelyn walked casually up the street, confident that she knew her way to and from the hostel. Hands in her black coat's pockets, she glanced at the newsagents and realised she recognized it - it was the place where she had met Jason - so she must be on the right track home. It was so cold breathing out produced a misty fog to emit from her mouth.
She noticed a light, single drop of rain hit her shoulder, then a few more and then a dozen more violent drops. Sighing, she pulled out her leopard print umbrella from her oversized bag and carried on her way to no destination. She noticed a person up ahead, sauntering in her direction - not necessarily at me, Evelyn thought, just in my direction. Evelyn stopped and looked at the girl who she knew as Elyse, her roommate. She stopped and smiled, knowing that the heels on her boots announced her presence. |
