Never say Never

She walked into the room filled with strangers, and smiled at where the dwindling path called life had brought her to. Pushing the door with her right hand, right foot in, she took in one long deep breath marking the end of what lay outside as she exhaled into the room.

Cigarettes, loud talk, simmered talk. Shiny shoes, heels claiming their authority on the floor, and everything she had stayed away from for as long as she she could remember.

She witnessed before her unforgiving eyes, a newspaper cut out of the very mnemonics of routine, of conformists, of human beings metaphor-ed into rats and an ugly race she never ever wanted to be part of.

She entered on, unnoticed, and pleased at it. What lay ahead, she did not know, but she knew it would be good. Because as hard as she tried to suppress the quiet glee she unexpectedly felt within, she could not deny its existence.

The verdict had been laid out. Only not acknowledged, and it would be time before it's impact would be enforced. But the verdict was out- She Liked It.

It was chance that brought her here, she consoled herself, and so chance will take the call.
