On A Quiet Street Novels & Stories

Sophie’s POV The restaurant appeared at the end of a quiet street that the rest of the city seemed to have agreed to leave alone. No crowds. No noise bleeding out from neighboring shops.

A moment passed, tension weaving through the air like the tendrils of fog creeping in from the river. The city thrummed with life around them—horns blaring, laughter echoing from nearby bars, the distant wail of sirens—but inside the car, an uneasy silence settled. "Who's at home right now?"

The night air was cool as Ace and Lisa walked along the quiet streets, hand in hand. The city’s usual hustle and bustle had quieted, leaving only the soft hum of distant traffic and the occasional rustle of leaves in the breeze.
