Such luxuries Emmerly had none. A large holographic clock on a taller building in the distance stuck midnight, and a Santa Claus on his big red sledge swept across the face of the building, accompanying the ring of bells and a signature “Ho-ho-ho!”
Emmerly sighed, and bowed his head. He produced, from his coat, a small medicine bottle. He twisted open and shock out a pill: half blue, half orange, oval. He swallowed it dry. He hated himself for taking this, but somethings...he just did not wish to remember. It wasn’t an addiction, no, merely his weakness. Or perhaps he was lying to himself, masquerading for his own sake.
At this time, the door to the rooftop opened behind him.
“I always know where to find you,” said he who entered.
“Yes,” Emmerly replied.
It was his partner in life, Sau.
Emmerly did not look back, but waited until Sau came next to him. He found that Sau was carrying two mugs of some warm drink, steam from the two mugs being swept sideward by the wind. Sau came to his side, and also leaned onto the railing.
“I told you Emily, you should stop taking that thing, for your own sake,” said he, for he noticed the unconcealed bottle in Emmerly’s hand.
