"These days, what people would long for is probably as simple as 'silence' or peace. Scarce as it is, one may go through great lengths to find it. Some might climb the highest of mountains, solve the hardest of challenges, or even lock oneself in one's room, just to find one's inner peace; one's own unique reason to smile at a world that looks at oneself in disgust and hate.

The Man Without A Phone

"Let's break up"
"Why?"
"You are always so hard to reach. I mean look around us. Where can you find a man without a phone these days? I didn't think I would mind at first but...now its al-"
"Alright"

In a world where love came to be from words on a screen, without a face.
There is the man without a phone sitting in a coffee shop.
The very first love of his life, the girl of his dreams transformed into a shallow caricature of society's desires.
Or did he think like that because he thought she was so beautiful?
Even as she left he could not stop the throbbing in his heart, mind and sex.

Yet he had always been prepared to say goodbye.

She had always been popular.
Guys would call her, text her, chat with her, hug her, yearn for her.
But the man without a phone thought that even without a burning passion, without overwhelming wealth that there lies something that rendered all the realities of the world unreal.

But of course, it's not without reason that the man without a phone threw away his phone.
