Day 45: Anne and Sturdivant
The swarming gnats, again. Today in Centenary, my serial novel unfolding in 100-word stories from Living Well Towers.
45: ANNE and STURDIVANT
- Sturdy, you know those gnats we saw?
- I’ve told you, don’t call me that.
- I saw them again.
- Where?
- I was out by the Serenity Pond, talking to his daughter, and then to Eli, and then to [ ].
- You were talking to Eli?
- His spirit. There’s a giant dandelion in the garden over there, six feet tall. I talk to him there.
- You saw the gnats there?
- They were hovering just out the corner of my left eye. I turned to swat them, and they were gone, then they were back, just out the corner of my left eye, squiggling around.
