A dark and gloomy path 【1】

It was close to midnight as I went my usual way home.

But I met a rare occurrence in which the road was under construction.

It was rather unusual that the road happened to be under repair and totally blocked off.

With no many choices, I could only choose a path what looked like a short cut in which I never walked it before.

Without much of a choice, I had go through a path which looked like a short cut. I had never tried this path before.

In that heat wave of path, I really desired a cool drink.

It was hot and humid going down the path. My throat started to burn and my thoughts turned to having a cool drink.

Spoke of the devil, there was really a vending machine not far from me. I rushed to the machine and hurried to pay the money for drinking, yet the machine was out of order. I neither had the drink, nor had the refund.

Speak of the devil, I spied a vending machine not much further along. I quickly made my way over to and rushed to get the change into the machine. Unknowingly, the machine was out of order and I was neither able to get the drink nor get back the change.

When I was annoyed, abruptly, a man appeared in my side. He wore an old gown looking rather like a tramp. Then he told me something which I didn’t understand it.

As my frustration grew,  a man abruptly appeared by my side. He wore an old gown and looked rather like a tramp. 

Then he began to manage the trouble machine. No sooner, my money returned back, even if there was not a drink as before.

I do not know what he did to the machine but he managed to get my money back from it.
