Introductions: First Meeting

[lyric-avery1x1]

Pushing the number three button wasn’t the easiest  thing to do when you have your hands full with an over sized box. Some how though, Lyric was able to get her finger on the button. Right at the same time just as the doors started to close she heard a voice call out. Unable to see if they were talking to her or someone else Lyric stepped back just in case they were yelling for her to hold the elevator. It was the best she could do with her being at a disadvantage of not being able to see.

When the door didn’t close right away she knew then that the man was calling out for her to hold the elevator. Now she was no longer alone and that wasn’t what she was hoping for when she entered the elevator. It was bad enough that she couldn’t see who had joined her. Add that to her not being able to speak and this was the leading to a disaster just waiting to happen. Positioning herself into the corner, Lyric did her best to become invisible. It was only three floors after all. What could possibly go wrong in that short amount of time? Sensing her grip on the box becoming loose Lyric realized a lot just before dropping the box.

Standing beside Cade was a petite woman holding a giant box. She must have been in the process of moving in because he had never seen her before. He was unable to see her face and she hadn't said anything yet. Did she even notice him? He thought about offering to hold the box, but she set off a mood that she didn't want to be helped. Standing in the elevator quietly with his arms folded across his chest he waited for this awkward journey to be over. The elevator doors shut and right as they did so there was a loud crash. All of the contents of that were in the box had spilled around their feet.

Cade immediately dropped to his knees and began gathering her stuff. "Are you alright?," he looked up at the brunette girl who wore an expression of embarrassment and fear. He began carefully placing the items back into the box that would now need to be carefully lifted up if they didn't want a repeat of what had just happened. Glancing up at the girl, Cade still hadn't gotten an answer. "No need to be embarrassed," he shook his head because he was sure that was the reason that she had been so silent. "The same thing happened to me when I first moved in."

Introductions: First Meeting

With this day, or more like this weekend finally coming to an end Lyric found herself smiling for the first time. While it all hadn’t gone off without a hitch she couldn’t help being happy with how everything turned out. After weeks of waiting for this day to arrive it was here and she was now about to start the big adventure of living on her own. Two years with a roommate in the college dorms had taught her one thing; that she was not meant to share a living space with anyone. 

Just three floors, one hall and then she’d be able to rest for the rest of the night. Unpacking could wait until tomorrow; however, dinner could not. Going over the list of places she’d found online that she could order from Lyric stepped on to the elevator holding the last box from the moving truck. Now to just push the button for the third floor and she’d be all set.

This week had been busy for Cade. He was keeping up with the maintenance of his family's pawn shop, and was still finding the right words to say whenever a regular customer came in and asked where his father was after not stopping by for months. The work had been difficult, but after hiring new staff and tidying up a bit the place looked presentable again. His sisters was coming to town in two weeks and he wanted her to see all the hard work he had put into the shop to restore it back to the way it looked when they were children.

Cade pulled the mail out of his small mailbox, fingering through bills and the occasional condolence letter that still came for his father, Annie, or both. He shoved the envelopes in his back pocket as he headed towards the elevator. There was a woman inside, one he had never seen before. She was fumbling with a box that covered her from head to waist. The doors began to shut and Cade sped up to a light jog to make it to the elevator. "Hey! Hold it right there," he stuck his foot in the doors which stopped it from closing. He stood at the back of the elevator next to the mysterious woman.

Well you have suffered enough And warred with yourself It’s time that you won

We don’t read and write poetry because it’s cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.
