murmur

I remember the bothering smell in the air from the distance as we drive the car.

But sceneries were as usual as a local town by the sea. 

Then we pass through a corner of a cliff, suddenly we see nothing was there.

The entire town was gone, drained and pulled into the ocean

literally, one cliff ordains life and death.

There is no cause and effect. 

Our life depends on total luck.
