Edina

Two Mortal Years Ago (Mortal Realm)

“FUCK ME, IT’S COLD.”
The winter wind threw the door open, rattling the bell above it as I
stumbled inside The Cracked Chalice, a dive bar down the road from my
school and the only place I could conceivably get to in this weather.
Though, in hindsight, I should have changed into jeans rather than the minidress I wore. Even with the thigh-high boots I chose for the weather, I still
had a lot of skin showing. Skin that was now all pink and wind burnt.
It took me shoving my weight into the door to get it to shut again, and
when I turned back to the interior of the bar, the patrons, all three of them,
were staring. “Hey, boys,” I wiggled my fingers in their direction while I
knocked the toe of my boots against the floor to clear the excess snow that
accumulated. I shucked off my puffy coat and hood, and shook out my hair,
running fingers through my long blonde waves to untangle the knots. The

scarf came next as I shoved it in my jacket pocket and hung it all on a coat
rack in the corner beside the door.
“Didn’t think you’d make it.” I looked up across the dimly lit space and
found Joe, the owner and bartender, lounging on a lawn chair behind the
bar. He was a middle-aged man who had lost most of his brown hair, though
he tried to make up for it with the scraggly graying beard he rocked. I
grinned when I saw him wearing the flannel I’d bought him for Christmas
last year, the red marginally less faded than the ones he usually wore.
“Don’t lie. I’m the whole reason you opened tonight,” I laughed, making
my way through empty wooden tables and approaching the bar. The other
customers went back to whatever game they were watching, the lights of
the flatscreen competing with a few neon signs that showcased the beer and
liquor offerings alongside a large, red neon sign that read BAR directly over
the liquor.

Joe shook his head and stood, making me a drink before I even got to the
forest-green leather stools. I loved this place. I loved the worn wooden
floors that always had a fine coating of peanut shells, even on slow nights. I
loved that I could still spot the abnormally large scuff on one of the tables
from when my best friend and I discovered tequila and table dancing. And I
loved that it was just clean enough that I wasn’t afraid to put my head down
on the shiny varnished bar top.

Joe set my vodka soda on the bar by my preferred stool, tossing in an
extra lime with a wink before logging the drink into the computer. I left my
parents’ black card here years ago. It was easier, and I trusted Joe. I checked
the statement once and found out he wasn’t leaving himself tips on the tab.
When I asked him about it, he said, “You’re not supposed to tip the owner.”
So, I started bringing cash.
