Somebody Else's Kids (Torey Hayden)
I was in a moment of failing faith.
Beyond the window a cold March rain slapped the pane.
I heard tears behind her voice.

She leaned very slightly against me so that I could feel the merest shadow of her weight.
The odour of Emeraude preceded her. And followed her.
I scrunched down and hoped my clothes would escape notice.

Fillet and the Mob (Susan Ashe)
Fillet had spent all day trying to sleep in a pool of sunlight that kept moving away from her.
Forgotten
...that has been damaged by water, fire, light or just the passing of the years.
P/S: Taken from a book which I don't remember the title. Read it while I was back in university.
