My co-worker winked and pointed towards the door. It was pouring outside. I took
my pack of Camel and a warm jacket. The cold drops of rain bounced from the pudlles
and settled on my new shoes.
-When is your flight?
-Man,I’m not going this weekend
The wind damped down the cigarette, the rain wet my face.
I went inside.
-Here is another one, he said.
-No, I need coffee.
I turned on the kettle, went to my computer, skype was empty. I remember we argued about what happens if one person leaves you a message when you are offline. I thought that you still get it when you go online, even though the sender is gone. I was wrong…stupid skype! I turned it off, took my coffee and on the way back saw my phone blinking like Christmas lights, promising good news. I saw her picture in between blinks. The cup in my hands made a rapid rotation and I felt a hot stream coming through my sleeve. I was balancing on the floor like a cow in the skating-rink until my other half of coffee finally covered the the Iphone screen like a brown curtain would cover the stage for intermission.
