“sorry Miki, but I really can’t make it...”
Miki resisted the urge to cuss under her breath as she stood under the lamplight outside the foreign language film theatre. Her friend had enthusiastically invited her out to see a new art house film, and though Miki had quite a limited understanding of the genre, she still decided to come to humor her friend. But now that the other has bailed because of some ridiculous boyfriend issues, Miki was left standing here alone as other packs of film enthusiasts entered the theatre.
She could just go home, she reckoned, but she had the tickets in her purse. A little irritated, she pulled out a slim cigarette from her back pocket and lit it, taking her time to make a decision. The street lamp flickered, casting strange shadows across the rising ring of cigarette smoke.
