Case 39: It Did Not Happen

After four years I cried again, much to my relief and satisfaction. It was inside a moving vehicle, with sad songs playing in the background and dark city sceneries in plain view. Along with the right amount of sadness, it was what my lachrymal glands needed to start pouring.
I often wish I could reformat myself as I did with my pc. I want to delete a virus that has bugged me for months, that has infected me because I was stupid enough to disable my firewall to download files that were ultimately corrupted. But if I do that, I have to erase every byte of memory that I saved in my hard drive, which is just as painful as living with a virus. Maybe, if I will just be patient and wait, my system can be updated and eventually quarantine the virus.
Yes, in computer glitches and sadness, sometimes all you have to do is wait. While waiting, I am training my will power so that like you, I can pretend it never happened.
