It was very strange in a synchronistic way. As Richard spoke to David he was coinciding with his life. Not only was he talking to him, thus in a parallel existence, but topics were somehow not linked only by chance. The music, the place, and echoes of a story that came before reverberated with Richard. There was something here that went beyond the visible or audible. As David talked clues of sameness opened up. There was a message behind these shared experiences. David and Richard were in each other’s life for a reason of which they were not yet aware.

And as if this conversation were a key to the door of paranormal, the one person Richard wanted to see more than anything landed at Richard’s feet completely unaware of Richard’s beckoning call. Coincidence? Maybe, but fortunate none the less. Here was a chance to step in the dark door way of impossible and cruel love. Richard narrowed his eyes and smiled at the vision that walked near. He treaded with fear lest he be too bold in his desire. He hesitated but moved forward to say his name. He let the word roll off his tongue like he was seeing a friend at a tennis club, “Randy.” The smile from Randy lead him further into a temporary intimacy with his prey. It flowed lightly, and yet there was awareness of attraction on both sides. After a prolonged interaction it was clear it couldn’t continue like this. They looked at each with a slight awkwardness, making it clear it was time to go back to their lives.
