And I Watched It Begin Again
Inspired by the song D'Arline by The Civil Wars
The whole exchange was watched by a young man sitting a few tables over against a wall. He had a notepad and a cup of coffee in front of him, a pen behind his ear, and a small smile turning up the corners of his mouth. She looked the same to him, even after the handful of years that he hadn’t seen or heard from her. The same blue-green eyes and dark auburn hair. It was shorter now than it had been, up to her shoulders instead of falling over them, but still, it was her. His Alice. She looked happier than he remembered as well. Of course, the circumstances then were not the best.
