[Short Story] A Broken World

Plop. Plop. Plop. She sat there looking at the drops of rain on the glass window. The gloom of the situation dawned on her. She was stuck here beyond the man-made walls as nature wreaked havoc in the city. "No this isn't it," she thought while glancing at the drops of rain on the glass window, "This is not how I am going to give up. How can I? after so many days?" "This relationship is as old as me itself..." she thought again, "Yes, that's it, I cannot let it end." She walked to the dressing room to quickly changed, "No need to overdue it. This is no celebration, this is war. Yes, it is." She took the first step out of the door and it felt liberating. It felt like freedom, she now knew how the freedom fighters felt when they were fighting for freedom. The sky broke apart, thundering on her as a warning to step back indoors. She refused. She was determined today. She refused to be told what to do today, even by God.
