    THE MOLOCH A love letter I remember a trip Clare and I once took to the islands. We bounced, rattling over glistening white-topped waves located a few miles offshore in my memory’s humming tuning-fork sounds. The thought came to me today with the air snuffing salty this morning and the humidity perfuming the air. A gray sky filtered feeble rays through large cross-slanted windows of her home.

    Completion (Part of The Lucia Saga)

    Author’s Note: Hi! So much Lucia…she’s slowly growing to be one of my favourite characters. This is pretty weird, a bunch of snapshots of her life, and it skips over Maiden Name, which comes between 2014 and 2016, but I hope you enjoy! Completion A Drama Short Story by Ana Govindasamy Trigger Warnings/Disclaimers: Sexual Assault, General Violence 2008, Age 14 My fingers curl around the racket, as the ball leaves her hands and flies at me. Four, five steps back, two, three seconds to raise my racket. The thud of the ball, the swish of air as I swing. And it comes hurtling back at her.  A green ...zUOone door
