The tree looked nothing like I’d expected. It had a girthy trunk that twisted around another then split apart. The ash-green leaves were sharp, slender, with a silent drama that reminded me of Van Gogh’s brushstrokes, of his loud, colorful lines.

It’s gorgeous! I didn’t think it’d be that big. I don’t make a lot of money but I live at home. I’m twenty-four. How old are you?

I’m glad you enjoyed the picture! We are very close in age actually. I’m twenty-six. I’m the oldest in my family. My brothers are twenty-one, seventeen, and thirteen. Do you have siblings?

No, I’m an only child.

Ah. My brothers are annoying but I think I would feel very lonely without them.
He asked what I did for work, and I told him I was a server.

I don’t know what you mean when you say you work in a sausage restaurant. Do you mean a cart on the side of the road that sells sausage wraps or something?

LOL in DC we have this sausage called a half-smoke. It’s like a thicker hot dog and it’s half-pork, half-beef that’s smoked. The restaurant where I work, that’s kind of our specialty, if you can call it that.

That sounds terrible, what is it, just bread and sausage? No spices or anything?

Omg nooo it has cumin, coriander (I think?), chili powder, and you garnish it with onions, herbs, mustard.

Ah, ah, okay. I was going to say that sounds very dry. When I was in high school I worked in this shawarma restaurant and I found the experience so stressful. You have to chop the meat from a pole in really thin slices with this saw (saw? Like a metal tool?) and I always had nightmares about cutting my finger off and accidentally serving it to a customer. The best part however was that we ate for free. I can’t eat chicken shawarma now because I ate so much then.
What kind of music do you like?
