who: anyone where: momma molly’s diner and café when: november 2021
The diner was filled with a few usual faces. Two waitresses floated around with milkshakes and burgers, as if a vision of a retro movie or classic cartoon. The only thing missing was the vibrant decor; in real life the colours always popped a little less.
Chrissy easily pushed through the doors, causing the bell above to chime. No one looked over, accustomed to the sound, making it white noise. She sat down at the counter and a server came over without her saying a word. When she’d walked in, she thought she knew what she wanted, but as she went to speak she hesitated, settling for a water to start to give her more time.
She turned to the person next to her. Maybe they’d give her some ideas. “What are you getting? I’m still trying to decide.”
