Comfort Zone Novels & Stories

"About how I've been acting, I'm sorry. I'm stressed up with everything that is going on in my life. When I leave home, I try to get a break from everything. To have a rest of mind and to gather myself. I really don't want my life issues to pull me down and affect what we have." I place my palm over his and send him a wide smile. "It's ok. I just want you to see me as someone you can find comfort and peace with. That's all I want." He nods and brushes his thumb over my skin. He pulls away as the waiter walks to our table. He places my food before me and Collin's, before him. He pops open the champagne which Collins had ordered and turns the liquid into our glasses.

Even the boards seem to be holding their breath. Routine settles over me easily. Not rigid. Familiar. I move through the space without turning on lights, hands finding what they need by memory alone.

The shower runs colder than yesterday. On purpose.

It is any place that makes you feel safe. We all need to spend time with people, or in certain places in order to be alone, or to recover ourselves, where you are not required to provide an explanation or justification, or provide a background or make a good impression.

"When I was young I thought sight was...imagination. Like watching television; I thought that everyone listened to it just the way that they listened to the radio. The descriptions my family gave me were just...interpretation. "For me vision is physical; getting hugs by my mother, wrestling with my brothers, playing with my sisters, hanging out in the field with the other kids—It's not the same as it is for the rest of the world.

All this time shalmali was frightened as to what will I do next but at the same time, I could say that she was even comfortable around me. They say, "you find comfort in the place that you fear the most." This quote was getting true. "Oh boy, you've started with it already? What time is it?" I asked Mayank, dabbing his back.

She had stopped noticing them as events and started experiencing them as part of the room’s temperature. Around noon the rain thickened. Noah closed the laptop, set it on the coffee table, and tugged her fully into his lap. Maya went willingly, settling against his chest with her head under his chin. For a long time they simply watched the water move down the balcony doors. “You’re quiet,” Noah said eventually. “I’m comfortable.” Maya’s voice was low. “It’s still strange sometimes, how comfortable. I used to think comfort was something you had to earn over and over. Like it would expire if you stopped proving you deserved it.”

If I can't do everything, at least I have something I can call mine. Another reason that my room makes me feel comfortable is that I love to dance, but I am embarrassed to do it in front of other people, so whenever I am in my room I can turn on the radio and put on some of my favorite music and dance my best. My room gives me the confidence that I don’t have in other places; it helps me to have trust in myself. I can do the most ridiculous thing, but my room won’t say anything; it will never judge me.

“All the time lately. Like something’s missing and I can’t figure out what it is. The elevator shit didn’t help. Made me realize how rarely I feel actually… comfortable with someone.” I turned my head to look at him. The whiskey was hitting hard, warming my chest, making everything feel softer around the edges.
