"I don't care if the rain hasn't stopped for 3 hours, you gotta get outta here, you're bringing down the mood."

Entia looks at bartender with malicious intent 

"If I give you a fifty will you get the fuck out of my face, besides it's only me and that creepy ass dude that always hits on both guys and chics, get him out instead." 

The bartender disregards the creepy dude with only the motive to get Entia out of the bar. 

The doorbells cling as a woman enters and asks for an amerciano and an old fashion. 

"Lady, it's two in the fucking morning and you want espresso!?" says the bartender with angered confusion. 

"Make me my damn drinks and I'll show you my tits"

The bartender eagerly sets up his small espresso machine again to make the americano and asks, " you want that hot or iced lady?" 

She responds with discontent, "lemme see it's two in the fucking morning, raining outside with windy and fifty degree weather and you're asking me iced or hot? Yea I'll take it up your ass dumbass." 

The bartender actually seems insulted despite his fat, big, tall appearance with a resting bitch face. But proceeds to make it hot. 

"Aye! Make me another one too and put her drinks on my tab." 

The bartender looks over with even more motive to kick Entia out as he grinds more espresso beans. 

The woman actually seems shocked despite her bitchy personality but then fixes her demeaning posture to insult Entia and says, " hey dipshit I didn't ask for you to-

"Shut up, I only did it because that's what I always get, besides, I'm not sure how you take your old fashions, but if you take it with rye whisky, you're in luck because despite this pushy bastard of a bartender always tryna always kick me out, he actually makes his drinks with good ingredients that are fairly unique. So don't get all butthurt, and hey if you're gonna be like that, then take your drinks leave me the fuck alone will ya?"

The woman is even caught more off guard by Entia's words and actions. 

"Ahmmmm, well hey sorry." Moves her dark red hair aside so that her face may be more visible. "I know you just told me to fuck off, but I just thought you were just some person trying to hit on me, so um... perhaps if you would let me sit next to you we could start all over?"

The woman pulls out a seat two chairs away from Entia as she continues to just listen to her from one ear, watching the rain fall from inside, while her other ear is plugged in with an air pod listening to lofi jazz.

"Yea, uhhh, go ahead and sit I guess." Entia really didn't pay much attention until she actually heard the movements of the chair being dragged out by the woman. Readily, Entia also fixes her posture, fixes her hair also and lowers her music on the one air pod she had on. 

"Again, sorry about that remark I made earlier, but you actually interested me if you're willing to pay for my drinks yet also telling to me to fuck off, you're quite strange ya know?" The woman says with an awkward smile.

Entia responds, "yea well, it really isn't just quite normal for anyone to order espresso based drinks alongside a cocktail at two in the morning, s'ides, I'ma stand firm on this, if you're  gonna be bithchy with me then leave me alone."

The woman laughs as she says, "well you ordered just that so doesn't that make you not normal? And again, I was only like that because I thought you were trying to hit on me, but now that I'm hearing the insecure responses you're giving me and that emo girly voice of yours, kinda wish you would have hit on me, I haven't dated in a while but I still got some flirt in me."

"First off, did I say I was ever fucking normal? Second, I'm too tired to even get at anyone right now, I'm just here to enjoy the rain noises because it serves as a white noise while writing, lastly, screw you, I am insecure of myself but my voice has nothing to do with that." says Entia with more interest towards the woman as she leans her body towards her while removing her air pod. 

Bartender yells from his corner behind the bar, "you ladies want any sweetener in your americano's?" They both reply, "with almond milk please!" from across their window bar seats into the empty bar with the exception of the old creepy dude that's sitting at the bar watching the bartender make the drinks while still disturbed with Entia's presence. "What you think this is an actual fucking cafe?" says the bartender. 

Entia boasts, "I know you have some fat fuck, and while you're at it, make me another old fashion!" 

Both ladies laugh but are also in shock that they both like almond milk added to their americanos as the rain noises become louder while the light post outside flickers its soft luminescent yellow light.

"Fuck, what am I thinking ? I've sat down next to you, we're about to share a drink together and I still haven't introduced myself ?" Says the woman in a relaxed yet cheerful manner as she takes off her coat to place it among her seat. 

Entia did find that strange but dismissed that because if there's one thing that she's definitely attracted to, is a lively interactive spirit that just makes you forget common sense and formalities. 

So right before the woman was about to introduce herself that's when Entia had memories of the future come rushing to her.

It was herself and the women she just met standing at an alter that also seemed to be within an eerie yet peaceful grotto, enough space to at least stand just fine but also hidden by the bushes to the point that the only visible light was the turquoise illuminating water lit by the glow stones that the two women were above on a white marble altar that elevated them from the water. Both dressed with ivory colored dresses and  designed with vine like patterns. The dresses weren't too long, but had enough  elegance to display the dress for a special occasion in which both were about to share... alone just holding each other by the hands,  as they stared into each others eyes, admiring one another's beauty in tears of joy for what's about to happen between them. 

Right before they share a kiss in which would finalize their life long struggle, Entia recites, "My name is Entia Tierra, and I give my life to be yours in your moments of grief and happiness, my soul will now be tied to yours forever.

The woman then replies while wiping the tears of joy off herself while Entia helps her wipe the tears off the other side of her face. 

So right as Entia is about to hearing such binding and promising words from the woman at the altar, she then returns to the present at the bar to then hear what she has to say.

Both present and future versions of the women happen to then coincide with what they were about to say to Entia in then triggering the memory from the future 

Leaving then Entia anxious to fight and make that future memory a reality with the following words that first inspired her from the woman at the bar...

 "My name is..."
