He woke up with a feeling of vibrant energy coursing through him. Today was the day he was going to propose to his girlfriend. He'd spent weeks planning every detail, from the location to the music. The ring sat safely in his pocket, radiating anticipation. He grinned, feeling like he could fly.

He stepped outside, ready to finalize his plans. Where his car had been, there was nothing but an empty space. A red towing sign fluttered in the breeze. He sighed softly.

He decided that it didn't matter. He could take the bus. He could even walk. The car was a minor inconvenience. His day would not be ruined.
