She walked up to the door and was about to knock. But her hand didn't move. Instead she placed her ear against the wood and listened.
Nobody was home. There was light. And motion. But she could tell the motion was artificial. LikeΒ Home Alone where the kid rigged up different...

Alan could keep the cafe running while she was gone. He'd know how to run the place for at least a few weeks. So she didn't need to get back anytime soon.
But she would need to withdraw cash before alan locked the account. She didn't expect him to do that....

"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...

hey, man - the voice from new york said
as reply to On the Coast
When the dot stopped moving closer to him, Alan felt relieved. He would have more time to himself.
But then an hour or so passed. And the dot stayed the same. He got worried. Began looking up where she was. And it was just the middle of the road.
He suddenly felt...

"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...

Their relationship begun in the winter.Β
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...

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...
