I could smell the intoxicating odour of cigarette smoke, as the Lost Woman puffs away, probably looking at me from behind as I stand and stare outside the window: the roads in KL are still wet from the heavy downpour an hour ago, as wet as the torso of both Lost Woman and I.
I took a sip of my JD Coke. In the back of my mind I know that the Lost Woman will soon start thinking about what Ambrose Bierce had said about love:
“Love: a temporary insanity, curable by marriage.”
Whereas my quote on love would be:
“L.O.V.E – like F.U.C.K, is just another meaningless four-letter word.”

I turned to look at her, slowly sipping my JD Coke, then turned back to look out the window.
I just made love to you, Woman. Doesn’t that count?
