The day I almost looked forward to Tomorrow

"So, what am I to you?"

That’s the last thing I heard before everything went silent. Or was it I who lost my ability to hear? I guess that would make more sense.

You would notice this silence normally, right? I mean, this is probably the biggest metropolis the Earth has to offer. I guess her question really made my mind go blank.

Either way, it doesn’t really matter. The next second all I could see was fire, and then everything turned white. The last thing I saw before the chaos was her slender silhouette.

Hah, now of all times, huh?

 I guess luck just isn’t one of my strengths.
