On a cold night such as tonight, normally, people would be huddled in their homes wrapped in a blanket in front of fireplaces. A cup of coco would be warming their frigid hands as they sat on the couch with a lover, watching the flames dance gracefully across the carpet.

But that is not the case for her. She is alone again tonight. Her friends are out having fun at the café downtown while she sits at home. Her only company is her computer. Sure, they asked her to come. Usagi even begged, but in the end, Mizuno Ami declined. This is just how things were for her. She didn't have someone she felt completely attracted to like her friends did.

She did have her computer though.

That was always there for her. And it will continue to always be there for her. Her only true friend. And yet, she despised it with every part of her being. For a computer cannot touch. It cannot feel, cannot cry. It cannot love. And so her loathing and exultant happiness is wrapped into a mixed ball of confusion. All for her computer. The only thing that remains constant in her world. Her only reliance.

Until it eventually will crash, too.
