Love and Deceit

Moving in a descending fashion, the door of the lift opened somewhere around the third floor, to usher in a beautiful couple, they looked cute together I must say, but silly dumb. Hahaha. Why? Simply because they were too smoochy and engrossed in their necked romance to realize they were not alone. 


Well, don't look at me that way, I'm no hater, they just should get a room in my opinion. 


Okay, maybe they caught me staring, and decided to accord my presence some respect. The girl giggled. 


At a point in my life where I was having to deal with numerous 'Female drama', I hated the sound of her laughter. They pierced my ears, sharply. And I felt a grimace sprout on my face. 


The man stretched out his hand, and for what? Courtesy sake? I think I would pass, because I have my own worries.
