"Fuck!!"
Zenith smashed a loud punch across the trunk of a giant cedar tree trunk, and the intensity of his strength was so fierce that the trunk was split from the middle.
As if instead of venting his anger out on innocent people like his usual self before, now Zenith had taken the route of channeling his anger towards other objects, and that cedar tree inside that thick mountain forest happened to be one among them.
On their first date, having such a disheartening failure with the lantern ritual that led to his argument with his beloved Kyle had already soiled his mood. Unable to trust his own temperament, Zenith had sneaked inside that forest, a bit far from the mountain shrine to calm himself down.
But it seemed as if his plan had backfired and instead of calming his nerves down, the haunting silence inside that forest around him wasn't aligned with his inner conflicts, thus resulting in his anger to aggravate even more with every passing moment.
