For months now, I had thought about her constantly. So much so that she had invaded all my daydreams. In them, I saw her where she would have been most happy. In the Greek Isles, like she said she always wanted to be. In that sense, I must have been prophetic.

I picked up the photo again and inspected it; sure enough, the woman in it was exactly the woman who had captured my heart. Her hair had changed - it was brown and came down neatly to her cheeks in a page-boy style, and her eyes were concealed behind dark sunglasses. But without a doubt, it was her. She had that same wonderful smile. My chest filled with the same warmth that had only ever been filled that way that one special night I had with her. Golden sunlight made her face glow, and behind her was an aquamarine sky and an endless sea that made her seem so free.

There was nothing else to the photo. No note on the back. No nothing. Still, the photo told me everything it needed to tell me. It told me that I wanted, more than anything else, to be on an island in Greece called Naxos.

The End

Thanks for reading.

Here are some songs I like:
Heroes - David Bowie
How Glad I Am - Aretha Franklin
Cowboy Take Me Away - The Chicks
You Only Live Twice - Nancy Sinatra
We’re All Alone - Boz Scaggs
Back on the Chain Gang - Pretenders

Simply wonderful. You've inspired me to seek out Oggbashan, but not until I've sated myself on your creations.

Fully agree with the thoughts below. I love the music you picked out, that's such a nice touch. This deserves more than five.

Exquisite.

This oozes class and style, while Karina's actions were completely authentic. Does Karina believe in such a code? Well, her actions tell us that she still lives by it and I believe her.

You write seduction in such an understated manner and it's so powerful as a result. In the hands of another writer, Ivan's fate would've seemed like playing to the gallery, but you never strayed anywhere near that territory.

Only very small issues presented themselves. There was a slight recurring inaccuracy when capitalising a job title and I think the use of the 'political thriller' tag is misleading in this instance. However, those are minor complaints and anyone searching that tag will be fortunate to stumble across this.

I'm not sure if this memorial event is considered to be a contest, but if it is, I sincerely hope you win. Work this strong would be fit to win any contest ever held here.

91/100. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

An edgy, beautifully paced piece; two intriguing women — noir fiction but so much more captured in the sometimes witty/sometimes poignant dialogue, the introspection, the postures/movements. And intensely sensual sex that reveals so much of the characters. So very creative in rather short space/time. Easily visualized as a dramatic romance.

So happy to see this in its final form. Such a passionate tale of two women bringing color to each other's dark worlds.

That was fantastic. A wonderfully descriptive piece of noir writing, that has become increasingly difficult to find. I was introduced to your work some months ago when a friend became absolutely convinced you were going to win the Valentine's Day contest. I've enjoyed many of your tales since. 5 stars all the way. I only wish I could add a star for hyping The Pretenders!

Hopefully she will be listen to her inner core ….. and yes sometimes it needs drastic action to turn a stone path into a smooth one …. Don’t wait to long senator as life is running quick out of time

So the ‚Escort‘ played a truly honoring hear bargain

Hopefully the heart wins over 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝 so ten hearts for you for another wonderf Entertainment
