Lucinda blankly stared at her computer screen, typing out a few lines here and there, only to delete them moments later.

Cecilia was busy wiping down all the tables. Seeing her friend still in a sour mood, she walked over, pulling a chair to sit across from Lucinda.

Lucinda shut her laptop, looking troubled. "I'm not in the mood for writing."
