A story using the words above
James was ravenous, shoving fries into his mouth while the rowdy bar crowd roared. A man, clearly inebriated, slurredhis words and knocked over a beer.
The door lurched open. A stranger entered, his coat adorned with strange symbols, holding placards. A musky scent wafted off him as he scanned the room.
James felt sour bile rise. The stranger’s incredulity was clear. “You don’t remember our rendezvous, do you?” he croaked.
James fret silently, his mind churned with snippets of memories. Outside, a coon scurried by, and wind howled through the frigid night.
“This whole thing is a charade,” the man muttered sulkily. Then, he turned and vanished like an apparition into the secluded alley. James sat frozen, his heart pounding in a frenzy, filled with an aching yearning for answers.
