People at work said there was something odd about the cafe on the ground floor of the building where our heroine rented her apartment. However, as far as she could tell, nothing seemed at all “odd” about it and the food was delicious.
Today as she entered the cafe the breakup with her boyfriend made her forget what others said about this mom-and-pop Chinese noodle shop. She ordered the same spicy noodles she always did when her mind flagged her with doubts.
After the meal she paid the bill, hesitated before opening the homemade fortune cookie, but then read its message.
The love of God for YOU is the greatest story ever told.

Excellent, Frank! I’ll have to listen later to what will assuredly be lovely songs.

I wonder what the “odd” is that people are referring to and suspect we may find out? A new series, Frank?Seems our heroine received the fortune she most needed that day.

This may be a one-off tale unless something comes to mind. I imagine those others who though the cafe was “odd” also received relevant fortune cookies when they ate there. Blessings, Denise!

Great Six, Frank. What’s odd is how we let others influence our thoughts for the worse!

That’s such a great story told in such a short form. Absolutely enjoy your posts.
And the heroine seems like my type of a gal, spicy noodles and the fortune cookies… I wonder what the oddity may be, hm.
