His Art, His Music, His Notebook Pt. 2
It was a very hot day in Chicago. It was not one of those “cooler by the lake days”. It was hot throughout the entire city. Hot with no relief. I sat outside the cafe drinking iced oolong tea to help reduce the anxiety I was feeling while I waited for the stranger. I was also praying that the stranger, would not stand me up. Then all hopes of me finding her lover and receiving $20,000 would disappear. I want to pay off my student loans and build my business. There was a lot I could do with $20,000. But I actually really wanted to help her. My desire to help her find her lost love was so genuine. I was living through her; I wanted him for her. I wanted a happy ending.

His Art, His Music, His Notebook
The little black notebook sat on the shelf in the empty closet. I froze on the stool I was standing on and stared at it because it was speaking to me. I always go into these vacant houses that I am hired to clean and expect to find something. Something valuable. It never happens. But this felt different. Why would a little black book be sitting alone on a dusty altar in a vacant house, holding a conversation with me? Telling me it was definitely my business to open it even though I said it wasn’t and I was just going to toss it. “You ain’t nothin but a bunch of nothin. Probably just full of worthless phone numbers and notes.” I told it.
