The strong bitter aroma
of ground coffee beans
drifted in the air, soaking
into my clothes as I made
my way to a table.
Her hand clasped against mine
as she pulled me by the grimy
window that looked out onto an
equally grimy street.
The cafe was decorated to fit
the season's theme. Lights
strung from the ceiling like
drops of rain, a mistletoe
hung from the entry door. A
small murmur of voices
coated the scent of the coffee.
"You really hate coffee, don't you?"
Her voice swooned over the other
voices. "Yet you go to a cafe."
I grabbed a napkin and scribbled
some jumbled words and slid it
across the table. You don't like
the waitress yet you still come
here.
She shook her head as her
curls bounced on her shoulders.
"I like the view," She nodded her
head to her usual spot. "Gives
me perspective."
And I like you.
I wrote in a sloppy handwriting
but before passing it to her,
I quickly scribbled on it.
"Hey, that's not fair. Show
me what you wrote," she
poked my cheek.
I shook my head.
"Well then. Hey, listen, that's
my favorite Christmas song!
Let's dance." She stood up
and pulled my hand, dragging
me to the jukebox. Her eyes
glistened with joy, for once.
"You know, Charlie, you
made this Christmas worthwhile."
I raised an eyebrow at her but
a smile soon spread across
my lips.
"I'm serious. If it wasn't for you,
I'd be making headlines tomorrow."

8 172Parallels
Parallels are a constant in life. Our friends' lives often run parallel to ours; we share similar experiences or tastes- perhaps even both. Sometimes, however, opposites attract- and our lives run perpendicular. In that case, we are not attracted by similarities; rather, we are attracted to the differences in others. So, what happens when two parallels are broken apart? What might happen to them? Are they forever doomed to run alongside each other, never seeing one another, never meeting? Or, perhaps, might they be spun about? Could these lines that formerly ran alongside one another meet? Could they possibly be set perpendicular? Any feedback is welcome, so long as it is constructive. Also, you may not use any characters, ideas, places, or what have you that I present here without my explicit permission. A note: This is a story which I began over a year ago, but never got around to finishing- it feels about time to really get it going. Now, there are a couple of things about the story, and myself, that need to be said. First and foremost, there's a slow start, but by the third-fourth chapter things should be speeding up a bit. Secondly, in regards to release speed and/or word count per chapter, I make no promises- my schedule is fairly random, and in regards to word count, I will cut off any chapter at any point that feels appropriate to me- that may include cliffhangers, if necessary. I'm not trying to reach a specific word count, I am trying to create a cohesive story, with pseudo-appropriate chapter breaks. This means I will also not rush a half-baked release for the sake of getting a release out. Thirdly, I will make any edits, anywhere in the story and at any time, that strike me as necessary- typically being wording and/or formatting changes, but I may also decide to change major plot points- in that case I would put a notification in the next chapter released. Finally, and most importantly, I am a Christian; this story is intended to at least moderately reflect those values. So, if you particularly dislike any of these things, feel free to look elsewhere, and don't let the door hit you on the way out. God bless, friends.
