Gabriel had spent most of the day holed up in his tiny apartment, slowly but surely making his way on some new songs. His band, The Four Horseman, was playing a show the following weekend, and he always felt like he needed to have new material. Maybe he just got bored a little faster than everyone else. His band members had been annoying him as of late by constantly choosing the party over the music. Sure, Gabriel would never turn down a good party, but he still wanted his music to mean something, and the guys just weren't seeing that right now.
Giving in to the writer's block, Gabriel decided to take a break from the songs and go for a walk. He'd ran out of coffee much earlier that day and thought he'd stop somewhere for a quick cup to keep him on his toes. There was a decent, though a little shabby, cafe not too far from his place that he sometimes liked to go.
Approaching the cafe, Gabriel could immediately tell what was inside. He nonchalantly opened the door and stood there, looking across to the corner where his brother sat staring at a cell phone screen. Probably playing that stupid Pokemon game... Gabriel thought to himself. He stood for another few seconds before he waltzed across the cafe and took a seat in the corner with Michael.
"Of all the gin joints in all the world, and she walks into mine," Gabriel said while he motioned to a waitress for some coffee.
