The cold morning air bit at his cheeks. He stood there, his breath clouding in the air, staring at the empty patch of concrete. Anger bubbled up, a slow, simmering heat. He was so over everything.

He thought to himself; "I'll deal with this later." But he knew, deep down, that the rest of his day was now going to be a complete mess. His plans were ruined.

He began the walk back inside, his steps heavy. He felt a deep, profound sense of exhaustion.
