Alyssa - You didn't think much of it at the time. The locket you carried in your hands. In fact you cared so little, you didn't give it so much as a glance. It dangled between your fingers, you felt it as it swung back in forth secured only by its tiny metal chain. You sighed, he gave it to you. One of the many souls you entranced into loving you by a mere glance. Drinking the rich brown coffee, you felt the need to add some cream, but you were hesitant to ask for some. Sitting in the familiar soft leather chairs, brown, most likely to avoid having to clean up coffee stains on them, you tried to enjoy yourself in the World's Best Coffee Shop.
The place was empty, unlike the day before, that had so many customers piling in. You rejected the thought, you didn't want to think about what happened. To distract yourself, you turned your head to the left, looking towards the window to the streets outside. You heard the buzzing of electronics and cars you were accustom to, but as you looked outside it seemed a moist dense haze had covered the city. As all that lied beyond the windows cleanly wiped glass was a blanket of gray, that remained motionless as time passed.
The thoughts returned to you, about the previous day, the people, you were to blame! You should have been more careful! You are the one to blame! who would know what would happen if... No!
You stopped trying to think about it, and instead tried to take a sip of your bitter coffee again. Instead, the white coffee mug was no longer there. The spunky waitress, she was gone too, the humming in the streets, the pictures on the wall, the colorful flowers of pink and lialac, the chairs, booths, and tables, all of it was gone. All that was left in the room was you. You sitting, on what felt like a chair made of sandpaper. As if everything had evaporated. You are the one to blame! You immediately felt the locket wrap itself around your hand. You are the one to blame!
You tried to feel for your glasses, you were going to leave, but, you couldn't feel your glasses on your face. You tried to look around, but the glasses were no where to be found. They too had become mist, a part of the fog that encircled the city. The locket's grip around your hand began to tighten. It was a shackle now. Its tiny metal chains became the metal chains of handcuffs. You began to scream, as you did, you heard the worry voices of those you had enchanted with your gaze. The voices, as if rushing to your aid, got closer, louder, intensified. Concerned with your well-being, they kept asking "Are you alright?", demanding for an answer. You cried out for help, as the locket now began squeezing your hand so tight, you were sure it would start cutting your skin. The voices became emphatic, deafening to such a degree. Though you couldn't clasp your ears shut. As your hands seemed immobile, constrained by the locket. No! No! Its not true!
You were beginning to panic, your heart beat sped faster and faster, your eyes began to well up and sting. When all of the sudden, it stopped. The bell of the Coffee Shop's door gave a short mellow ring. The door was swung open, and then quietly closed. The locket shattered, the voices stopped, the and the coffee shop faded away. The angle of light now, that struck across your face was like feathers and all you saw now, was a man.
"Its obvious isn't it?" he asked you. Before the dream collapsed, and you woke up in the office of Adeline. It was morning, the morning after the traumatic episode you experienced in the Coffee Shop.
