Marshall remained silent as he stood next to Irene, gazing downstairs. His lowered gaze concealed his expression; Irene could not tell what he was thinking about.

After a while, he asked, “Do you have another one?”

She tossed him a box of cigarettes and a lighter. Marshall swiftly took one out, flicked it a couple of times on his fingertips, and then lit it.

Perhaps it had been too long since he last smoked. When he took the first drag, he could not help but cough a few times.

Irene paused. Then, she silently scrutinized Marshall’s expression.

The smoke surrounding him veiled his face, shrouding his emotions in mystery.

She chuckled and said in a flat tone, “It’s better that you don’t remember.”
