Someday 13.75

He was on his way home from work, the darkness enveloping him. Once a lover of the night, everything changed after meeting her. Memories flooded his mind as he approached his car, each step a reminder of their time together. The day they spent at the lake lingered in his thoughts as he sat behind the wheel. Nostalgia guiding his actions, he inserted the key and pushed the gas pedal, driving off into another lonely night without her.

The road ahead disappeared into darkness, his heavy heart weighing on him. Exhaustion clouded his senses, tempting him to rest. His eyelids drooped, signaling the need for a break, perhaps a taxi ride home. Suddenly, a jolt disrupted his reverie, followed by shattering glass. Trapped and immobile, he faced the inevitability of life slipping away. Despite the encroaching darkness, a glimmer of hope flickered within him, whispering that this was not the final chapter.
