Dreams (Reprise)

If you have been following this series regularly, you know Eliza has been having a time of it– especially after last week! This week, she is on a hiatus, and I found an old Wicked Wednesday that also had a dreams theme! Eliza sat at the bar, her legs crossed as she nursed her drink. […]

Wicked Wednesday #302 — Games

Oscar did not want to play games with Eliza. He took her to their bar, and Josephine looked at him because even now as hostess she had bartending intuition. Oscar gave Josephine a generous smile, that was far from how he had felt. Eliza had not observed the exchange, and when he told her about […]

Wicked Wednesday #270 — Bond

“Who was he?” Terrence had asked when he saw the look Eliza and Oscar exchanged in the stairwell, and now Eliza looked at Oscar. They were at their favorite bar, and Josephine was still there when they got there. “Long time no see,” she had mused while pouring them straight Laphroaig, the smokiness stayed in […]

Wicked Wednesday #238 — Preparation

Preparation for her upcoming wedding made Eliza nervous. Sitting at the bar by herself was so dèjá vü, of when she was first there lamenting over her fate. And she met Oscar. This time she was meeting Oscar, because she wanted to meet him. Oscar looked at her, as he slipped onto the stool beside […]

Wicked Wednesday #212 — View

Eliza took in the floor to ceiling view from the bar. Josephine had just gotten off of work, and they were going to another bar which puzzled her.”This is the most sought after view in the city Joe, maybe we should just stay here?” Josephine stared at Eliza with exasperation, and she could not blame […]

Wicked Wednesday #210 — Choices  

“I know that I sound like a hypocrite,” Eliza said, settling into her nook with Oscar. “But it is a little weird for me because you know Fiona’s history.You know that she was…you know how she was in Shanghai…”Oscar stared at her when she said that, because Shanghai was their start and their finish until […]

Wicked Wednesday #209 –Opportunities 

Eliza loved every opportunity she had to be with Oscar, and she had to admit, she loved going to the bar and seeing Josephine. Even with all that was going on with Fiona and Alice, she really liked Josephine. She had left work a bit early, so she could chat with Josephine for awhile before […]

Wicked Wednesday #204 — Off Limits

“You’re my sister!” Eliza folded her napkin and hands on her lap as she stared at Fiona, who she had planned to have lunch with even after their impromptu meeting at the bar a few nights before. “I love you Fiona, but…I do not want to get in the middle of this. Why don’t you […]

Wicked Wednesday #203 – Go Ask Alice

“Do you have any questions for me?” Alice asked Fiona. Alice stared at Fiona. She could not explain the way that she felt. There was nothing wrong with her relationship with Fiona. Nothing at all, and maybe that was why she was so defensive. Her prettily made up expression in the ornately framed mirror they […]

Wicked Wednesday #202 — On The Knees

Eliza grabbed Josephine’s arm, right before she got out of the reach. “Josephine, wait…” Josephine stared at Eliza, with empty eyes. “What?” she asked, just as emptily. “I need to know about you and Alice. Fiona,” Eliza began, feeling protective of her sister-in-law to be. “is Rafe’s sister and…Alice and her have been together for […]
