Interlude (2)

"I want that," he said.

"Well, take a number and wait in line," was the reply.

With a heavy sigh, he stood at the end of the line. It was a long line. He couldn't even see the front. The line snakes all the way to the horizon, where the sky is just a shade of red.

"Soon, I'll be with her again," he consoled himself.

It might take an eternity, but what is time to him. He has an eternity to waste.

But waste away, without her by his side, now that is something that he couldn't live with. Just thinking about it sent shivers down his spine, all the way down to his tailbone. He shrugged it off, and looked ahead.

And the line stayed static, and he stood there wasting away his eternity, without her by his side.
