The Paradise Experiment
Don't Know What You Got
Rudy was never one to complain, but he was not sure the one hundred dollar gift card to Billy Bob's Burgers was worth the side effects of a medication he was taking for this clinical trial. The itchiness in his feet from the growing roots was very uncomfortable.
"It is hard to wear a jacket!" He pointed to the branch growing from his side.
The research assistant listened and nodded while texting Dr Mitchell,
"We have another!"
Dr Mitchell smiled looking out at the arborway that used to be a parking lot. The big yellow taxi drove away.

Campaign
***Content warning violence*** Shaking hands and kissing babies while walking the aisle, the politician checked each camera angle as he bowed his head. He spoke with utmost sincerity when asked about the latest tragedy due to incoherent laws. He offered thoughts and prayers for the latest victims as he reassured constituents it was not the time to discuss.

Trouble at the Tea Leafing Café
The rain had started right around the time that Annie was buttering her second thick slice of homemade toast for breakfast, and hadn’t paused since. Not that anyone could tell. The windows of the café were fogged over, and with every seat filled with happy customers munching on fresh baked pastries or steaming bowls of the delicious soup of the day, it was hardly surprising. Annie looked around the room, finally taking a moment to breathe after the lunch time rush. Her old life already felt like a bad memory, a part of her history, always, but just that. History.
