    cigarettes out the window

    As Adrien sat on his balcony overlooking the Hollywood Hills, he took a long drag of his cigarette and let out a deep sigh. The smoke swirled around him, almost like a cloud of depression hanging over his head. He couldn't shake the constant feeling of emptiness that consumed him. No matter how successful he was in his career, nothing seemed to fill the void he felt inside.

    He knew he needed help, but he was afraid to reach out to anyone for support. He didn't want to bother his co-workers with his problems and he certainly didn't want to risk being judged by the public.
