What would you do if caffeine was illegal? For the nameless character in our story the answer was simple. Drink coffee in private, tell no one about it, and live his life normally. But a year after the law banning caffeine passed, things weren't so simple. Coffee is scarce, rules are strict, and everyone seems to be watching him no matter where he goes. But despite his fear of being caught he cannot stop himself from drinking coffee. And as his addiction continues he feels even more alone, prompting him to start this journal. The entries in this journal depict his struggle to get his fix in this decaffeinated world. How long can he make it before the world exposes him? (This project is a creative writing escape for me. I write this in my free time, which I have less and less of at the moment. The updates to it are frequent but not scheduled, so entries may take some time to come out.)
