En Memoriam
by Tami Veldura
Paul has seen Victor before, he just can’t remember where. The rush of fear in his stomach when Victor glances his way is familiar. Paul knows the slant of his smile. There’s nothing safe here, but when Victor offers to meet over coffee, Paul is swayed by this sense of knowing. Paul wants to know why he longs for Victor’s voice. Victor is keeping secrets, Paul just can’t remember them.
