His head hurt like nothing else in the world, and it took him several seconds to finally get the slightest glimpse of relief.

He walked, aimlessly, through the deserted streets.
He picked up a popsicle from one shop, a cookie from another, and even a cup of coffee that was on the outside table of a cafe.
