imagined conversation with f scott fitzgerald in a coffee shop
by Ricky Garni


the smell of fresh brewed coffee in the air

ME: You know, I have never read any of your books.

FSF walks out of the coffee shop and slams the door. If you go outside, you can smell a little of the fresh brewed coffee even there and his Lieber Gustav 14 cologne.

ME: Mabel, could I have a cup of that delicious coffee?
MABEL: We're all out. It was that good!

FSF walks back into the coffee shop, picks up his cup, and drinks the last sip. He's not an idiot. He then leaves and slams the door again.
