You looked back before stepping out . Walking along the black , damp street , you got closer to that old rundown hotel . As you waited under the awning , you pulled out a cigarette and quickly lit it . Holding the stick in your mouth , you breathed in and blew out a morose cloud of smoke . After a few more drags , the decent - looking male you were waiting for showed up next to you , his arm slipping around your waist . You laughed and dropped your burning tobacco onto the ground . As you two started towards the pitiful - looking entrance , you looked back at your cigarette dying and drowning by the ever so heavy drops of rain . You followed the man up towards the elevator where he started to talk to you .

Question: Why did you pull out a cigarette and quickly light it ?
Because you are addicted to cigarettes .
