Author's notes: Quite sad really, only one reviewer… This is also just a singular paragraph I just had to write.

Keitaro ran and ran. Eventually, he arrived at his ultimate destination, Tokyo University. Except that his promise girl was not with him, as she should be. Looking around, Keitaro saw nothing but blurs, people going about their daily life, leaving what could not catch up with them in their wake. Time was just like that. Those who could not keep up were mercilessly booted out of the game of life, and Keitaro was stranded. Will he make it? Nobody knows. Looking at the sun, it seemed to race across the sky. Running, running, running…
Sighing dejectedly, Keitaro walked towards no destination in particular. As he walked, the blurs intensified. Keitaro caught smatterings of the conversations around, and all the stuff about the great and wonderful Tokyo University was driving him mad. Keitaro stood still, a statue frozen in time, while time raced around him, affecting everything around him, but not him.
Keitaro found himself in front of the lavatory. Instantly, he bolted in and stood in front of the sink, looking at his reflection that did not seem to reflect his inner turmoil. He saw in the mirror, neatly combed brown hair, large dorky glasses, a trendy blazer and jeans. But the only things he saw were his eyes. They looked dead. Keitaro bent down, turned on the tap to full blast, before splashing his face full of the seemingly heavy water that dragged his face down. In his reflection, the corners of his mouth were twisted downwards, and his cheeks sagged.
Keitaro turned, moved into a cubicle , and sat down hard on the toilet seat. As he glanced over to his left, he found something interesting scribbled onto the wall.
"Here I sit broken hearted, tried to shit but only farted."
"Amazing how accurately that describes my life." Thought Keitaro. "Stuffed full of half completed goals."
Keitaro laughed. Tears streamed down his face.

Nothing much to say.
