Hipsters talk more than Boomers these days.

Abraham Kim last shared their writing George Baker enters the cafe
George Baker noticed the ding only after the door had closed behind him. That was an anomoly, he thought. Most of these store door bells dinged upon opening. He turned back to look up at the bell that was stuck onto the side of the door rather than hanging from...

out there as reply to Times like These

"And also. If she was rescuing a puppy, wouldn't she answer my calls?"

"You got a point there."

Alan didn't say anything. Aaron could sense that his friend wanted him to volunteer to call Imogen again.

"Yeah but I can call her. I'll do it now. How about that?"

"Thanks, Aaron."

Aaron hung up and...

all she could do as reply to Earphones

When the call came in her gut said don't answer it. She was overthinking though. Like always.

Answer it her mind said. It's your boyfriend. Girlfriend's don't ignore their boyfriend's call.

She was driving though. That could be an excuse. But she'd have to answer eventually. She couldn't drive forever. Not even...

you're a good kid as reply to Berlin Wall

"Imogen what happened to that cafe? It had so much promise. I remember. This was years ago. I visited. And now I hear you're working a regular job. What happened?"

"It was really. really hard to run a cafe."

"Mmm. I bet. But I thought you had a knack for it. The...

at the same time as reply to Phone Again

Their relationship begun in the winter.ย 

Winter was always special for that reason.

But each passing winter, it felt less special.

And their relationship felt less a one of a kind and more of a clone.

The creative, sensitive man now seemed plain, irritating, and unoriginal.

And her cafe. No longer felt like a...

made him smile as reply to A Little Longer

When he woke up it was quiet. His son must be out of the house he thought.

By now he'd gotten used to having Aaron around. They spent only a few hours awake at the same time. But the house felt more whole with his own kind bopping around. He was...

we should do this again as reply to Dancer Together

He got up. Laying in bed made him sick and he couldn't fall asleep. He was too drunk. Maybe the last three or four beers that done him in. Otherwise he would probably be sleeping right now. A shitty sleep, but at least some shuteye.

Aaron's snoring filled the otherwise quiet...

sean is cool as reply to Like the Rest of Us

Alan knew hating Sean was childish. He'd played this scene before. Knew where it headed 99 out of 100 times, and still he couldn't escape his role.

Sad too. He liked Sean. Always had since they said hi while Alan moved in. They probably would be friends had they had something...

cool people butting in as reply to Don't Forget the Mustard

He was surprised that the comment came from Imogen Howe . It was something Aaron would say. Or Jack after a few drinks. Were they rubbing off on her? He was overthinking things. His face reddened more, continuing to think that she knew what he was talking about.

But on her...
