H is for Halley’s Comet #AtoZChallenge

Never say never. Never say die. Ah, well, we’ll give it the old college try. (It rhymes. 😉 )

The One, A Flashfiction

I went to a tarot reader who said, “Girl, there’s love in your future.” So, I’m out tonight looking for him because I know he’s there somewhere.

It’s the music that tempts me, draws me into a bar I’d never go, not alone, anyway, where between chords the voices are too loud, slurring. An out-of-control scene I usually avoid because bad things happen here. Not tonight, though, because he’s here.

Long fingers encircle the guitar neck, stroke the strings, charm notes from the instrument the way only a devil could do. And, I know. I know the way you know with that first bite of chocolate cream pie. He’s the one.

  1. Doomed.
    Never heard Billie Eilish before. Sounds stoned out of her mind. But maybe that’s just the way she sounds and she isn’t.
