It was dark, except for a few lights. The  museum had closed most of its exhibitions. The seat at the info counter was empty. I sat on a bench where it was dimly lit. I flipped through the free postcard stand. I got bored. My phone was untouched. My drink was left on the floor. I stared into empty space. My mind was empty.

I didn’t know why.

I still don’t know why.
