"S. Claus" by @acouture22 "My children color intently on the paper menus as I sip my coffee. My eyes lift and look around the restaurant. That’s when I see him. His white beard, suspenders, plaid shirt and glasses set him apart from the crowd. Our eyes meet and he smiles..."

"He reaches into his deep coat pocket and says, “I hope this is okay but this is for your daughter and this is for your son.” The man hands me a small wooden doll and a small handmade wooden fire truck. My eyes well with tears. “Oh wow. Thank you!”"

"My children's eyes grow wide and they smile but are speechless. My eyes follow the man as he leaves the restaurant on this random March day. He climbs into a red pick-up truck with a license plate that reads “S Claus” and drives away."
love to get great reviews like this :)

Here's a 30 Second Friendship story from @cultstartup "I’m doing laundry at a laundromat off Pico in LA. I’m wearing a shirt that reads Fuck Fur that looks like it was painted in blood. Another girl about my age comes in to do laundry. She is wearing a faded Batman tee...

"She looks at my shirt and says she loves it. I tell her I have always wanted a Batman shirt and I almost bought one once but I was with my boyfriend at the time who thought it was stupid and it made me feel badly so I didn’t get it...

“You deserve a Batman shirt,” she says. “You deserve a Fuck Fur shirt,” I respond. We both take off our tee shirts and trade. My laundry is done so I leave and never see her again.
