As I sit down again, someone mumbles something in my ear.  "What?  I didn't?
Oh... that's right... I left, didn't I?  Hmm... well, I guess I might as
well..."  With that, I quietly wander out the door for a couple of minutes,
then...

The door to the Place opens again, and I enter, looking, if not happy, at
least a bit more hopeful than I was when I left a month ago.  Walking up
to the bar I ask Mike for a glass of strawberry Yoo-Hoo, then turn to face
the fire... 

"To dreams and friends: sometimes, once in a while, they're enough.  I hope..."

<*crash*>

I bow sarcastically, then return to my table at the side of the room.

                                the middle of the story."
                                  "But what if there isn't a happy ending?"
                                     "There are no happy endings... because
                                      nothing ever ends."
