The first thing you notice is the sound. Not the roar of traffic or the hum of a refrigerator, but a quieter, more intimate language: a faint gurgle, a soft churn somewhere below your ribs. Your gut is talking. Maybe you just finished a bowl of berries, or a crisp green apple, or a slice…
The first time you really notice the shower screen is usually the day you wish you hadn’t. You step into the bathroom, sunlight spilling in at that precise angle, and suddenly the glass isn’t glass anymore. It’s a collage of water spots, cloudy film, and streaks that make the whole room feel tired no matter…
The woman on the park bench is laughing so hard she’s wiping tears from her eyes. Her coffee sits forgotten next to her, cooling in the early evening air. Ten minutes later, as the light drains from the sky and the shadows stretch long over the grass, her body folds inward. The laughter is gone….
The metal lid gives a familiar little sigh as it opens. A soft click, then the faintest whisper of air.

The name is right there, hovering at the edge of your mind like a dragonfly over water. Close enough to see its shimmer, too slippery to catch. You can picture their face, the last conversation you had, the sound of their laugh. But their name? Gone. And in the half-second pause that suddenly feels like…
The pen hovers above the paper for a moment, just long enough for your brain to catch up with your intentions.
