A short story by Ernio Hernandez

photo by 贝莉儿 NG

You crossed the street, turning to stand against the wall opposite where I sip my morning tea.

I stopped writing just to watch you in your bright red jacket as you waited.

You unearthed a bravery that drove me, for once, to make a move.

Your bus nearly swiped me as it turned the corner, stealing you away.

Last night, I painted that wall red hoping you’d notice, or that maybe my memory of you would fade into the background.
