item not found

it's not like she didn't like love. she didn't feel funny about it either, she didn't. she just didn't believe in it. some claimed it had once existed, but the whole story about a man and a woman caring about each other in so many ways as love was supposed to include seemed just too far-fetched.

sometimes, she allowed herself to daydream about it, but reality would then immediately take its toll in shuddering and eye rolling currency. she knew love was overrated anyway. not to mention long extinct. *if* it had ever been real.

she’d heard people talk about it, but, like mammoths, it had eluded her all her life. so, like them, it could only remain as traces frozen into blocks of ice down at the south pole. if at all.
