New Life
Richard Sleobe

It’s my first trip without Lucy. I see traces of her everywhere I look. The girl who stands in line in front of me at the check-in counter wears a scarf just like the one Lucy used to wear, black, dotted with white skulls and bones. One of the TSA guards has a tattoo just like Lucy’s, a serpent eating its own tail. The duty-free shop is plastered with posters promoting Coco Noir, Lucy’s favorite perfume. In buy a bottle.

I can’t say her name and she can’t pronounce mine properly either. “You vacation alone, Treeesh?” She’s got these huge dark eyes and skin the colour of toffee and slinky, wavy hair.

The Grim from Lake Jocher
anonymous

The men stood motionlessly around the lake. Quietly, almost cautiously they had made their way as lumbering shapes here, one after the other, sometimes alone or in small groups. Even from Pawigl and naturally from Partschins they had come up here, whispering or murmuring to themselves, with earnest expressions full of fear and awe and their looks carried the mark of the unknown…
