Six Sentence Story: The Cookie

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.
