Midnight Pub

The walk towards the pub

The Purposeful Trip

After another day working on that confounded website, I shutdown my laptop, walk over towards the keys that hung on a keyholder and walk towards the front door. I step over the threshold and locking the door I decided the pub would be a welcomed respite from both digital world and regular insane world. I walked the three city blocks to the left, once I get to the corner called "Midnight Street" I hang another left and walk another block and there is that little alley. I don't get bothered, it's broad daylight. I walk through the door and announce "Hey everyone, how are you all doing?" I walk over to the bar where I see the bartender and says "this time I want an ale, cold and frothy please." I make my way to the stool and sit. The music is pleasant, the atmosphere wonderfully relaxing. I wait for my drink and wait for the fun to begin

Ah! Thank you, I still don't know your name but you seem to know how to pour a perfect beer, the head on it is perfection. Cheers!

So, whassup? Long day, huh? Hey, forget about it, it's beer-o'clock now, right?

Barkeep, I'll have another. Thank you. Get another one for my new friend here while you're at it. Looks like they need it.

I turn towards the voice and notice a person speaking me, I point to the lounge chair next to me and says "please join me. I am Rosie. Yes, I have a project I am working on, I should be done but there is a little bit of a hiccup and I have spent days trying to figure out what the problem is. I thought of coming in here because this, at least for me, has become a safe haven." I spot the bartender from the other night approach with the ale and smiles "Hello so good to see you again" I see him put the glass bottle of ale and a frosty mug on the table, I pour, I sip and the world is made right once again. I take that glass of ale still in my hand and turns my gaze towards the benefactor and says "Cheers! Thank you for the drink" and goes on to enjoy the ale and the good company
