The Emotional Weather Forecast

In memory of B.

Story Description
#WITWContest In the trembling geography of a Tuesday morning, Liminal Grounds exists between breaths - a coffee shop where emotions precipitate as atmospheric phenomena and ordinary moments fracture into extraordinary recognition.

Zara discovers she can serve feelings as beverages, each cup containing the distilled essence of human experience. But when emotions manifest as literal weather systems, reality begins to bend around the simple act of connection.

A customer orders something to forget, and memory dissolves like morning mist. Another seeks first love, transforming everyone within three blocks into their teenage emotional selves. Each served feeling creates ripples that reshape the world's atmospheric pressure, until Zara realises she's not just a barista-she's a curator of the liminal spaces where hearts weather their most profound storms.

When the boundaries between internal landscape and external reality collapse completely, one final customer arrives seeking the impossible: the feeling of being properly mourned.

A story about how love doesn't end - it just changes forms, like water becoming vapour becoming rain.

In the quiet cartography between memory and acceptance, entire universes of connection pulse like distant stars.
