‘Exiled to Love’ by Jae El Foster
“I wonder…” she thought
aloud as she started down the stairs to the front door, “what kinds of jobs are
open and hiring on a Saturday?”
There were, of course,
thousands of possible jobs out there. She considered what it would be like to
be the CEO of a large corporation, or to be a successful fashion designer.
Maybe, if she played her cards right, she could star in a motion picture or
land a recording contract by dinnertime.
Those, she knew, were
true possibilities for her – if she
was able to use her powers. Without her powers, she felt pretty useless in the
workplace. Then, she thought, every employed mortal must have felt useless
before getting that first job. This was no different than that. They had found
a use, and so would she.
She just wasn’t sure
where or how.
“A latte…” she mumbled
as she stepped outside her home and walked to the sidewalk. “A latte would
definitely help me think right.”
Normally, she would
have just teleported to the coffee shop of her choice – no matter where in the
world it was. Now, she didn’t have that option, and as she lived in a suburban
neighborhood without a public transportation system, she’d have to walk.
“I’m glad I went with
sensible shoes,” she noted with a cringe.
As she walked, she
noticed several neighbors outside, enjoying the sunny Saturday afternoon. Donna
knew none of them. She never ventured on foot anywhere – especially around this
neighborhood. The neighbors either waved at her, smiled, or both. With gritted
teeth, she returned the gestures. Her eyes scoped the streets, the street
signs, the beautiful houses and the well-groomed yards. Nowhere did she see a
café.
“Latte?” she called to
an old man on his porch. “Where are the lattes?”
The old man, obviously
hard of hearing, waved at her and smiled.
Slowly spinning in a
circle, she looked at the other random, unknown faces and asked, “Where is
coffee? You know… a coffee shop? A café? Lattes? Cappuccino? I need caffeine!”
