It was 3AM, and the world was covered in a thick black blanket peppered with soft flickering lights. She ought to be afraid to be alone, but... she felt nothing.
"Hello."
She starts at the greeting and turns in the direction of the sound. A man stands before her, amusement flashing across his face before he replaces it with a bizarre expression that correlates with her feelings.
He extends his hand in her direction, the sharp smell of coffee cutting through the air. "You look like you could use this."
And with that she realizes, today is not the day.

It was quite a challenge trying to cut down the word count to only 100 words! Hopefully the story still makes sense? :)
