Weekly Contest #317
It was a day like any other in the early summer. After lunch my father would sit in his large armchair by the window, open book in hand, my mother still busying herself in the kitchen. And I was bored. That was the day I first met Charlotte. My memory of that is so vivid it feels like I could re-visit it, if I closed my eyes long enough.

But sometimes life just gets in the way of having a good time and you have to leave the house. It was also exactly one of those days that made sitting at my favorite cafe even cozier. The familiar ring of the bell at the door announced my arrival and I was greeted by the steamy air, thick with the smell of freshly brewed coffee and sugary snacks. The girl behind the coffee machine smiled at me and I instantly fe...
