Joshua came out of the hotel, got into his car, and drove around the outskirts of Sea City in frustration.

After circling a few times, he finally stopped next to the beach and got out of the car.

The sea breeze blew against his face and somehow made him a little more balanced.

It was already nighttime, so there were not many people around. Joshua caught sight of a food truck a short distance away, along with two or three customers gathered around it, drinking and having their meal.

Although the customers seemed to be having a great time, the beach was so quiet apart from them that even the food truck owner started to doze off.

Joshua could see the silhouette of a slim woman in the distance, her long hair billowing about her in the sea breeze. She seemed to be talking on the phone.

Joshua thought this woman looked familiar. She reminded him a lot of Luna Gibson.

When he first met Luna Gibson, she, too, liked to talk on the phone with him at night. She would always layer a jacket over her dress and let her hair down, then call him as she stood on the beach, enjoying the cool breeze.
