The Full Cafe

Rebecca Jane

Annie sat at her usual table in the corner of the Twin Flowers Cafe. It was rather busy today, but she didn't mind in the least, she always got some ideas for some of her stories when the shop was at its busiest. She generally came in the morning to people-watch, but today was a little different, she had come in the afternoon. Her friend Laura had met her, and they had talked for a good hour, when they had finished catching up, Annie had decided to stay for another hour to observe people's interactions.As she sat watching the ...

A Peaceful Christmas

Rebecca Jane

Lonely! Alone! Tired! Those are the three words that I am sure will describe this Christmas. I couldn't afford to fly home this Christmas, and my family couldn't fly here. To make things worse, my close friends are all flying home to see their families, so we can't do anything together. I am happy for them, but right now, I just want to feel bad for myself - petty, to be sure, but what can I say.Well, although I am all alone in this small apartment for Christmas, I should still try to make the best of it . . . even if I will have to try real...

The Encouraged Eavesdropper

Rebecca Jane

I slow down and come to a halt as I slide to the edge of the eaves. This was going to take a while...who would see me dangling up here over this window. I should have said goodbye to that paper when it flew out the window, instead I am hanging up here like an inch worm hangs off of a flower. I guess I get the chance to think, I've been worn down and haven't really been taking the time to think lately...or do anything else, for that matter. It has been a month since I have felt like myself. I have been feeling so discouraged about everyt...

A Robber's Heart

Rebecca Jane

"I have to take you in. You know that, right?" queried Officer Brit. "Well, I know that, but I am not exactly happy with it. I have been running for six years. Until you came along, I would have gotten away with that bank heist." Responded Mark. "I'm sorry, but you should have known better in the first place. Justice always makes right in the end, no matter how far after the crime." Officer Brit said with some sorry at the circumstances. She always felt bad that she couldn't have helped the confused people before they committed a crime and n...

A Simple Thank You

Rebecca Jane

Let's see, maybe a book from one of her favorite authors, or maybe some homemade earrings, oh, maybe a homemade cake...Claira had always heard that homemade things made the best sort of gifts. Maybe she could crochet an afghan and give it to Alice; after all, nothing is too big to give to someone that you are grateful for. Or, she could do several different things and add a "thank you" note to top it off. However, I don't want to make it awkward by giving her something too big, and then everyone would think that I was trying to get on her go...

The Assignment

Rebecca Jane

It had been three long days that Grace had been working on her book assignment for school. Grace hadn't made time in her busy school and work schedule for having a fever for a week and being unable to think clearly during that time. Now, she was playing massive catch-up.She had decided to have an all-nighter and finally finish this book assignment...it was already several days late, as was everything else, but if she got it done, she was sure that the weight of having so much to do would be lifted and she would be able to work more efficient...
