It was an average April morning, the streets still wet from yesterday 's rain. In fact, it rained all through the night, and the smell of the rain from early morning still lingered in the air. I like the rain. I like the way it falls on your face as if each droplet was a golden drop of happiness falling from heaven. I like the way it lightly drizzles, giving my whole neighborhood a shower. The rain sweeps through all of Manhattan, cleansing everyone both physically and mentally. Rain is like a fresh start, a new page. The best part is, afterwards everyone is happy. Sometimes, if you are lucky there is a rainbow that sweeps across the sky, painting colors of red, orange, yellow, green blue, electric indigo and vibrant violet.

That’s why my brothers name is J.J., his first name is Jaques after the French explorer Jaques Cousteau and his last name is Jones as well. We have known Señor Clark for our whole lives, he has always been extremely generous and kind to us. J.J. places his hand on the glass pastry display, gesturing towards the fluffy, butter croissant. It looked like a plush toy, big, giant and unreal. I couldn’t wait for a bite. “I guess we 're getting one butter croissant” I say as Señor Clark steps back behind the counter. “Please!” Says J.J. sheepishly, he is learning about manners in school and is extremely serious about it. Two dollars transfers from my hand to Señor Clark and I get one dollar back. “I thought it was two dollars,” I say, in concern. “ It is, but for you it’s one. You kids have always been like the kids I’ve never had, this is the least I can do to repay you” He says, thankfully. After a little going back and forth, I accept the money, and he goes to the back to heat it up.i scan the deli, my eyes trace from the counter to the shelf stacked with bags of chips, to the bathroom. My eyes have made their way to the seating area, the tables are an olive green color, and two seats are at each table. There is one table with six seats, and there are a few bar seats at the counter, facing out onto sixth avenue. At one of those three bar seats there is a man. He has on a black leather jacket, distressed jeans, and black ankle boots. He has on a pair
Everyone loves to tell the story of their first love, and the beautiful lesson they learned through the adventure. You hear the phrase, “you’ll never forget your first” as you see a small smirk flourish across the faces of people who remember their story. Through all the experiences shared, I never would have believed the result of falling out of love. All of the novels and sweet smiles never hinted about the time I would end up crumbled down on my bedroom's floor, with two years of a person's presence surrounding a broken heart. Nobody will speak of watching your first love leave for college, knowing that they will want to move on. I went through the stages of heartbreak that left me with a cracked and bruised heart. The recovery and journey of finding acceptance and love for myself, created a book of my personal lessons.
“Yes, actually. I just took out a fresh tray of Macarons for you two to try!”
The place was deserted, the only other customers a young couple in a corner booth. I sit in a corner booth of my own and flip through the menu, but nothing seemed appetizing. When the time comes I end up ordering a cup of coffee from the college-age looking boy who then takes my menu and promises to be back in a minute with my caffeine-filled goodness. I trace patterns on the smooth table as I look out the window, enjoying the clear view of the full moon.
“ Not that they’d let you cook,”. We both chuckle at his garlic bread incident. Long story short, the royal kitchen almost exploded and smelled like garlic for weeks. Kudos, Malachy.
“Well, Norrie, that’s what I made and so you’ll eat them. I don’t make breakfast just for you, you know.”
Just then, the girl turned and spoke to him. Pointing to one food item in the serving line she asked, “What do you suppose they call that?”
“Man Hope, look at all this breakfast!” I delightfully squealed, as we eyed the food laid out before us at Vista’s.
"Haha, no. I'm not even sure if that makes sense. No, it's just Dunkin Donuts. French vanilla. Oh hey, is this Sufjan Stevens? He's awesome." Darien exclaimed before taking a bite of the pastry. "Oh my god, these are even better. I can't believe you made these."
"Well I'm talking to you... " Damien trailed off, gripping the pen in his pocket of his jeans
We walk toward a small table and then take our seats. Justin takes out the menus pressed in between the red pepper and parmesan shakers and hands me one.
Nurse: I am sure it is helpful that they come often…Well, Mrs. S., I see that your breakfast arrived. I will come later to continue our discussion. Would you like anything before I leave?
“Well let's get going everypony, we've got a bakery to go to!” Steve said with a hungry grin. Just the thought of delicious baked goods made his mouth water.
Ronny takes a deep breath and heads out with all the orders. Delivery number one is a pepperoni pizza
Love is difficult to define, difficult to measure, and difficult to understand. Love is what great writers write about, great singers sing about, and great philosophers ponder. Love is a powerful emotion, for which there is no wrong definition, for it suits each and every person differently. Whether love is between family, friends, or lovers, it is an overwhelming emotion that can be experienced in many different ways.
Love is an abundant emotion that has different degrees. There is familial love, friendly love, unconditional love, and of course romantic love. Romantic love will be the superstar of this article.
